Problem with server (HELP IF YOU CAN!)
I've recently started a server, and it ran perfectly for the first day, everyone was able to log on, and all the good stuff, but the next day, I turn on my server, and it just stops letting people in. I tried going back to my port forwarding list, and it was all done fine, but I can't get it to run. If you can find the problem, it would be nice to know what is causing it and how I can fix it.

Usually will say "You are not Whitelisted" not "Cannot Reach Server"

^ whitelist was on *facepalm*

If online mode was set to true and he was cracked it would say Bad Login not Cannot Reach Server. The problem is he didn't port forward or didn't do it correctly since he can connect but nobody else can.

If you can connect just fine but nobody else can it's because you aren't port forwarding, I would check again to ensure you actually are port forwarding, that you're forwarding the correct port and also that it's being forwarded to the correct internal IP.

then it is your routers problem
Try turning off whitelist, if you have it on. and reboot your router.
Lemme ask, did you really try re-portforwarding?

The server shows up as online on my screen, and I can go in just fine, just nobody else is able to.

Are you actually running the server? Yes I am
Are you sure the internal IP didn't change? Yes
Is port forwarding still enabled? Yes
Did you give them the correct IP to connect to? Yes
Are you filtering IP's in your router? No
Is the port you forwarded being used by anything else? No
Have you tried rebooting your computer and launching the server fresh? Yes
In your server properties file, is the IP and Port correct? Yes
Do you have a Firewall preventing access? It's on, but I'm not sure if it prevents the access.

Hhmmm...
I've had this problem.
1) Go to CMD.exe for windows.
2) Type in ipconfig
3) look and remember the IPV4 Adress.
4) Portforward with that IPV4 Adress
5) Launch your server
If these fail:
Delete the server.properties file, you may have goofed something up in there.

The error message: Cannot Reach Server
The internal IP did not change.

Pastebin your server log on a brand new start-up
and also check your server properties to see if online mode is set to true. Otherwise your ports are screwed or your internal IP did change. I've had my internal IP change before.

Well we need a little more information, why can't players get in? What error are they getting? I'm assuming you're hosting the server at home since you're port forwarding, did the internal IP of your machine change?
Example your internal IP is 192.168.2.7 and that's the IP you port forwarded to, then you reboot your modem and it redistributes IP's to everyone on the network, now your internal IP is 192.168.2.5 well you are no longer port forwarding to the right IP/machine.
Let me know and I'll try to help.
