Ive been attempting to set up a Bedrock Minecraft server on a free Oracle VM. I have some experience as I have a server running on a Hetzner instance however a few weeks later after scouring the internet including lots of Stackoverflow posts, I am pulling my hair out trying to get port access externally so I can connect. I have no issue connecting via SSH.
Here is what I have done.
- Fired up a server using Ubuntu 20.04 image
- Configured a VCN using the Wizard ensuring internet connectivity (an internet gateway) is added
- Set up Ingress rules in the default security list for port 19132
- via SSH disabled firewall and verified with
sudo firewall-cmd --state
the result is ‘not running’ - via SSA added to the iptable with
sudo iptables -I INPUT 1 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 19132 -j ACCEPT
tested the port by pinging the public ip and port 19132
result: Port Closed
Arrgghh.
There must be something am overlooking or a way of testing why it is blocking.
Please help me Obiwan, am at my wits end.
