I am able to connect to my vanilla rust server (port-forwarded and windows firewall rules enabled), but as soon as I install oxide I can no longer connect to my server.
Trouble connecting to dedicated server
Hallo Curupttd
In your router your firewall should be set to at least low to off.
It doesn't matter if you use Oxide or not.
Well, in your case, your firewall detects unusual traffic when Oxide is running.
That in itself is not necessarily wrong.
Suppose you don't use Oxide and someone comes to your server? Then your firewall can see this as unusual traffic, just like with Oxide use.
Then your firewall blocks the incoming traffic and possibly also the outgoing traffic.
1. Set your firewall to low or off in your firewall. I would turn it off, but it is possible that your router will set it back to LOW by itself.
2 - Turn off your firewall that you are running the server on.
3 - This doesn't work if you use a custom map – ..
+app.port 28015 +server.port 28016 +rcon.port 28016 +server.queryport 28016
4. This should solve the problem you are reporting.
There is no other option regarding your firewall.
The higher you set the firewall? The more traffic is blocked.
That means that others can not join, and the server can not be shown.
It makes sense, actually. Because unusual traffic and unknown traffic are firewall rules.
A firewall, of course, blocks other internet traffic that wants to access your computer, in which situation your server is running.
All servers work this way.
Everyone has to do the same to achieve the same.
Your rule is therefore not an exception rule.
Good luck and greetings.

Thanks for your response! I disabled all of my router's firewalls and this error still persisted. I'm not sure where a log outputs for any errors but the server does get up and running I just can't connect to it. Also when I mentioned the windows firewall I was talking about the inbound rules for the ports.
echo off
:start
RustDedicated.exe -batchmode +server.port 28015 +app.port 28017 +server.level "Procedural Map" +server.seed 198912 +server.worldsize 2000 +server.maxplayers 10 +server.hostname "Server" +server.description "Private" +server.identity "server1" +rcon.port 28016 +rcon.password changeme +rcon.web 1
goto start
This is my current batch file if it helps. Thank you for your help but this didn't solve it!
Good day.
You're welcome.
But from what I read we're not there yet.
We'll just continue until we succeed.
I do see some improvements.
You can better place +rcon & identity & +erver.description in your server.cfg.
The location where serverauto.cfg is located.
You can create one yourself.

As I can read you don't need to do @echo off.
You don't need to shut it off from the rest of your computer.
I hope I'm saying it right? Because for Batch programming it is useful. But also to start Rust it is not necessary. I will give you an example to use below.
Also adjust your Portforwarding in your router if necessary?
Everything you want to add to rules? Do that in the future in your server.cfg and not in your rust_server_start.bat
Leave rust_server_start.bat as standard as possible!
rust_server_start.bat
start "RustDedicated" /B RustDedicated.exe -batchmode +server.port 28016 +rcon.port 28016 +app.port 28016 +server.queryport 28016 +server.level "Procedural Map" +server.seed ??? +server.worldsize ??? +server.maxplayers 50 +server.hostname "*???*
Take over what is written. Change your server name.
But do not change the ports I give you and the way of mapping.
Just try to test it..
Hopefully it works now?
I'm curious?
Kind regards
