Description of issue
This issue can happen for different reasons, such as:
| Summary | Description |
| The server attempts to make a connection to the central servers but fails for some unknown reason. | This'll be one of the more common reasons, usual fix to this will be a VPN which isnt good if you're hosting a server, or to contact the hosting provider/ISP. |
| The server is most likely missing some data on the central servers such as geolocation. | The centrals are messing up when trying to process requests from it and cant. This'll require sysadmin interference. |
| centrals are screwed | lots of people will have this issue (everyone) and this will require sysadmin interference. |
Solution
If you are home hosting the server, please try to run a VPN on the machine the server is running on. If a VPN does not fix the issue then it may be a deeper issue, you can check this by checking if you can access https://servers.scpslgame.com . If so and you still receive this error, feel free to get in touch below.
If the VPN works, then you gotta get in contact with your ISP to fix the issue so you don't have your server running over a weak VPN connection.
If you are hosting this on a VPS or dedicated server and receive this error, your firewall/port forwarding rules are either messed up or your server IP is being blocked by cloudflare. You can check by going onto https://servers.scpslgame.com if your on windows or by typing curl https://servers.scpslgame.com into your linux terminal and searching through the raw html of the page text for the keyword "ray". You should spot your cloudflare RayID which will confirm cloudflare is blocking you. If this is the case, then please get your IP changed by contacting your hosting provider.
