i am attempting to host the daemon in a new vps and i have only a limited number of ports available so im trying to start the daemon on port 1272. i edited run_hlstats and changed the port, i also changed the port in hlstats config and i can see my daemon running at port 1272. however my hlstats website cannot communicate. what am i doing wrong? i would also like to know what protocol is been used for communication between hlstats website and daemon (i am suspecting a port forward issue, cause i forwarded port 1272 TCP and it might be a different protocol)
this is the result of trying

HLstatsX: CE Daemon Control Sending Command to HLstatsX: CE Daemon at 176.9.xx.xx:1272 — 50 bytes OK Waiting for Backend Answer...recieving 0 bytes in 0 packets...OK No packets received — check if backend dead or not listening on 176.9.xx.xx:1272 Closing connection to backend...OK

Thanks

Hi,
just change the port in hlstats.conf and then check logs (don't modify run_hlstats ...).

PHP Code:

UDP: Opening UDP listen socket on port XXXX ... ok 


Website only "renders" data from MySQL database, so it doesn't communicate directly with the daemon (only for reload command).

So allow UDP/TCP port XXXX in your firewall for certain IP addresses (eg. gameservers and IP of your webhosting).

PHP Code:

             WEB CONTROL
 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
 .                                   . 
WEB - - - - - - MySQL - - - - - - DAEMON - - - - - - SERVER
       DB                DB         LOG ADDRESS / RCON 


HTTP/HTTPS: 80/443(TCP)
MySQL: 3306(TCP)
Daemon: 27500(UDP)

if i modify the port only on hlstats config then the daemon starts at 27500 and ignores the port i have set to hlstats config.
so the port is udp and that my main problem here. i couldnt run the reload command from the website because of the tcp forward instead of udp
