Minecraft noob here; wanting to learn about docker-minecraft-bedrock-server HOT 5 OPEN

If your host system is Linux or MacOS you could use tcpdump to help debug that the broadcast/connect packets sent by the client are arrive at the host:

sudo tcpdump -vv udp port 19132

If you're using Docker Desktop on Windows, I have found switching my network from public to private helps.

Can you connect to the server from any other device? Does the server have any firewall blocking ports?

from docker-minecraft-bedrock-server.

Like @xnaas, I was going to suspect a firewall issue.

FYI, telnet won't work for testing as far as I know since bedrock is using UDP rather than TCP. nc -u could work for debugging, but even then bedrock speaks a proprietary, binary protocol so you could only verify port connectivity and not any meaningful response.

You could use mc-monitor status-bedrock from different points in your network to natively verify the network access.

Thanks; all works fine now. One thing though: my iOS devices do not always "see" the server. During these cases, the mc-monitor tool perfectly is able to connect. So must be something iOS-related I guess?

Of course, I checked my wifi network: wireless/client isolation is off.

I'm having the exact same issue here. How did you solve this @rogierlommers?
