Palworld Server Troubleshooting Guide - Fix Common Server Issues
Here are common Palworld server issues and how to fix them.
Error! app ‘2394010’ state is 0x6 after update job.
Section titled “Error! app ‘2394010’ state is 0x6 after update job.”Sometimes when you try to manually update your Palworld server, it will get stuck somewhere with the error Error! app '2394010' state is 0x6 after update job..
To fix this simply stop your server, delete the steamapps folder, then restart your server.
Do not do this if you are self-hosting locally through the Steam library
”Connection timed out” When Connecting to your Palworld Server
Section titled “”Connection timed out” When Connecting to your Palworld Server”Ensure your server is currently turned on. If Palworld has just updated and you have mods installed, then your server is likely broken and will require mods to be updated or removed. You can check your server usage or type a command such as info into server console, if your CPU usage is super low, or you don’t get a successful response from info, then your server is crashing and not starting properly. Create a [Backup] then update or remove your mods / UE4SS to fix the issue.
If you’re getting the message Connection timed out when you’re connecting to your server, this is most likely because you’re trying to connect via the Recent Servers tab. Currently, this may have issues, and you must connect direct using the IP address every time..
This can also be caused if someone in your guild leaves while other players who were connected to the server are offline. This sometimes can be fixed if they rejoin the guild again otherwise you will need to restart your world.
Connecting anonymously to Steam Public…Retrying
Section titled “Connecting anonymously to Steam Public…Retrying”The Retrying issue is caused by Steam connectivity issues. Due to the popularity of Palworld this can sometimes happen. To bypass this go to Startup Parameters and disable Automatic Updates.
You will also have trouble connecting to your server while Steam has outages. You will sometimes need to wait 5 - 10 minutes to get back in. Steam performs routine maintenance on Tuesdays.
