I am having the exact same issue as well. Mentioning this is on the precompiled Windows version, running on Windows 10, MC Bedrock server is 1.14.

Thank you,

Hey @pupshadow @slickmin @dub24 can you describe your setups?

• What device are you running phantom on?
• What device are you trying to connect via Minecraft on?
• How are your devices connected to your network?
• What Bedrock/MCPE server software are you running?

side note: I noticed that phantom didn't work when running it for the first time, when Windows pops up the firewall window and asks if you want to allow access. After pressing allow and restarting phantom, it worked as expected.

I'm using windows 10 to run the server and Im trying to play on xbox one.

Running Phantom on Windows 10.

Trying to connect on Xbox One.

Gigabit wired network.

Bedrock server v1.12.0 hosted at Apex Hosting.

I accepted the firewall and restarted with no luck. Also disabled my firewalls to test as well with the same result.

Hey all, could you try phantom v0.2.0 and let me know if the issue persists?

[dubmn]

I was able to run 0.2.0 and see the LAN server on both my Windows 10 PC and Xbox One. When I try to connect, I get the message "Unable to connect to world.". Below is what my command window looks like in Windows 10. Of course I masked my server IP address.

I'm still getting this problem even after moving to the new version.

I confirmed a strange bug specific to Windows. I noticed that it doesn't always show up on Windows if you're running phantom on the same PC.

If you use two different Windows 10 PCs and run phantom and one and Minecraft on the other, it shows up instantly; if you run them both on the same PC, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. If it doesn't work, I could make it work by opening up Minecraft on another device (any device), and the LAN server shows up on the original PC instantly.

I'll continue looking into it but it seems very specific to Minecraft for Windows 10 + phantom on the same machine. I haven't run into this issue with any other combination of devices, particularly my Xbox where this does not happen.

Hy all!

I think the source of this problem is that Windows 10 UWP applications are not allowed to access loopback/localhost.

See:
UWP Enable local network loopback
Can’t connect to localhost Win10 server with Minecraft Win10 Edition

i have the issue that the server only shows up in friends tab when i actually add it at the servers

I think the source of this problem is that Windows 10 UWP applications are not allowed to access loopback/localhost.

Yeah, I think this may be it. From the MSDN Docs:

To maintain security and network isolation, loopback connections for IPC are blocked by default for packaged applications. You can enable loopback connections among trusted packaged application using capabilities and manifest properties.

All packaged applications participating in loopback connections will need to declare the privateNetworkClientServer capability in their package manifests.

Testing this out a bit, I can confirm that Windows 10 + local Windows client doesn't seem to work.

• Phantom on Linux VM + Windows MC client = worked
• Phantom on Windows 10 + iPad client = worked
• Phantom on Windows 10 + Minecraft Windows 10 (same machine) = no work

So it sounds like you'd have to package phantom as a UWP app with an appmanifest that overrides the loopback setting. IMO, this particular (no local phantom <-> local windows client) seems pretty low priority, since a client running on Windows shouldn't need it anyway. ;-P

Closing this issue since there were a couple different problems at play here, but I opened a new issue specifically for the Windows 10 UWP issue ^

Thanks all! Feel free to open another issue if you're still running into issues with the latest version of phantom.
