So I’ve seen a few posts like this but no one has an answer yet and they keep getting marked as answered I followed this guide to a T. [A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki - Announcements - Unreal Engine Forums](https://wiki.unrealengine.com/Dedicated_Server_Guide_(Windows_%26_Linux)#2.a_Setup_source_unreal_engine_To_use_Visual_studio_2017) Did it twice, using Community 2015 Update 3 and UE4.18 RUNNING ON LOCALHOST TO TEST 127.0.0.1 using the FirstPersonExampleMap as the main map. Heres my log: link text ---

This is a new one for me. It looks like you should branch on “IsLocallyControlled” to make sure it’s not running on a server or a non-owning client. The client can open a URL like that but a server cannot. The engine code involved is UEngine::Browse(). It’s in Engine\Source\Runtime\Engine\Private\UnrealEngine.cpp. ---

It isn’t a variable. It’s a function. It returns true if it is called on a local client. You want to check that and if it is true then you should open the URL. If it is false then do nothing. I was only giving you a reference to the code involved in case it helped. There’s nothing there that you need if I’m right. But if I’m wrong, you have a place to look. ---

It’s called from the pawn. If you are doing something different then I need more context. What is happening when this problem occurs? If you can show some code that would help a lot. ---

Are you running it with any command line parameters? In Project Settings → Maps and Modes, what is “Server Default Map” set to? The error implies that somehow you are telling the server to open a URL. It also implies that this is not allowed. So we need to figure out where and how this URL is being given to the server – because it is not normal. ---

OK. The log file says this “Browse: 127.0.0.1//Game/Maps/FirstPersonExampleMap”. You need to get rid of that “127.0.0.1/” so it says “Browse: /Game/Maps/FirstPersonExampleMap”. Basically, you shouldn’t be giving the server the IP address like that. It will bind to 127.0.0.1 by default. However that is getting into the mix, get it out. ---

Roger that. I have an idea perhaps. The only place i set 127.0.0.1 is this step 1. Prepare the project for packaging 2. [https://d26ilriwvtzlb.cloudfront.net/4/47/Ip.png](https://d26ilriwvtzlb.cloudfront.net/4/47/Ip.png) So i might try removing that…? ---

Yeah. You can’t run that on the server for sure. And make sure when you do connect that it’s happening on a client and not on a server. Easiest thing for now is to just connect the clients using the console command (the ` key brings up the console in a Development build). The command is “open 127.0.0.1”. Once you get settled you can have the clients use the “ExecuteConsoleCommand” node and connect automatically. ---

The connection looks like it’s good. It seems the problem is the client is using the Entry map, not the map you want it to. In the Maps & Modes section of Project Settings, there is a spot called “Game Default Map”. If it’s not already, set that to the same map as “Server Default Map”.
