Hey @malitha22,

It looks like DNS isn't working properly on your machine if you typed the name of your TS3 server inside the config.php

$server_ip = "127.0.0.1";

Did you tried to put the IP address of your TS3 server instead?

[malitha22]

yes! I tried 127.0.0.1/localhost/ts3ip/domain

[malitha22]

but it didnt work

[dennisabrams]

The problem is that the API can't connect to your TS3 Server Query.

Check if port 10011 is open in your firewall.

You can check if your server query accepts TCP connections with this small program:

<?php
$host = "YOUR TS3 SERVER IP"; 
$port = 10011; 
$waitTimeoutInSeconds = 1; 
if($fp = fsockopen($host,$port,$errCode,$errStr,$waitTimeoutInSeconds)){   
   echo("Online"); // Can create a connection
} else {
   echo("Offline"); // Can't create a connection
} 
fclose($fp);
?>

@dennisabrams its online!

@dennisabrams I tried with different vps and teamspeak servers but didnt work!

[dennisabrams]

<?php
require_once("libraries/TeamSpeak3/TeamSpeak3.php"); // Your TS3 PHP framework path

$serverquery_username = "serveradmin";
$serverquery_password = "PASSWORD";
$server_ip = "127.0.0.1";
$serverquery_port = "10011";
$server_port = "9987";

try
{ 
  $conn = "serverquery://$serverquery_username:$serverquery_password@$server_ip:$serverquery_port/?server_port=$server_port";
  $ts3_VirtualServer = TeamSpeak3::factory($conn);
  echo($ts3_VirtualServer);
}
catch(TeamSpeak3_Exception $e)
{
  echo "Error Code:" . $e->getCode() . ": " . $e->getMessage();
}
?>

Warning
Check if there are any special signs (special characters like: !@#$%^&*()_+:) inside the serverquery password! TS3 PHP Framework doesn't like special characters at all! If you use it and don't want to change your password ~ use rawurlencode.

So if you tried this and it still fails, check the Teamspeak 3 PHP Framework Docs and the informations & requirements inside the README.md.

If your server is using an IPv6 adress it must be written within square brackets: $conn = "serverquery://username:password@[fe80::250:56ff:fe16:1447]:10011/";

[malitha22]

thankyou so much! , the problem was the serverquery password its start with "@"

[dennisabrams]

No problem, I'm glad I could help 😊. I will add this problem to the README.md and update the program soon, because I'm not completely finished yet 😅.

[dennisabrams]

Special characters can be used inside the serverquery username & password now.

Username & password will be encoded to RFC 3986 by default.
