Can not connect to accounting servers

TeamSpeak Server
1

Hey everyone,

I recently moved my TS3 server to a new host and now I can’t connect to the accounting servers. The server itself works fine, until it shuts down after trying to contact accounting2.teamspeak.com for two hours to validate the license.

My firewall allows outbound traffic and I can ping for example google.com. However I can not ping any teamspeak domain:

If I start the server I get the following logs:

Any ideas on what may be the problem here?

Edit: I also checked Project Honey Pot for the IPv6 address of my server and everything seems to be fine. (message “We don’t have data on this IP currently. If you know something, you may leave a comment.”)

Please check your Firewall to see if the following Ports are enabled and make sure that they are not blocked by the firewall or ask your Host

It looks like your server is IPv6 only.
Too bad!
It is apparently too hard to flip a switch in the Cloudflare dashboard to enable IPv6 support for accounting service, so theres none :slight_smile:

You need to get an IPv4 address somehow.

Or we need to go a step forward and try to add IPv6 to our system.

Will discuss that with IT tomorrow.

Thank you! Added an IPv4 and it works fine now. Kinda supprised that this isnt supported currently… Now I have to pay an additional 70 cents per month just to have the privilege to use an outdated system :man_shrugging:

Would be awesome! Looking forward to get an update on this!

Hi Chris, did that conversation ever happen? I have been having the same issue of getting error contacting the accounting server because I host my server on an public ipv6 + CGNAT ipv4 network. This was fine but ever since July 23 it is constantly reporting error. Today there was an additional “Unable to connect to accounting server” error. Two hours later, server was shut down, logging “Could not connect to accounting server after multiple attempts, shutting down server”.
Can we please allow ipv6 on the licensing server to resolve this issue?
