Follow these steps to correct the issue:
Stop the AKI Server.
Navigate to the
coopConfig.json
file located inSIT\Server\user\mods\SITCoop\config\
.Modify the
messageWSUrlOverride
field to include your local IP with the port:6969
appended at the end (e.g.,192.168.X.X:6969
).You can get your Local IP by opening
cmd
and typingipconfig
Change
useMessageWSUrlOverride
totrue
. Ensure the valuetrue
is in lowercase.Save the changes to the
coopConfig.json
file.Reboot the server and verify that it is functioning correctly.
Note
If you’re running the AKI Server on Docker or a Virtual Private Server (VPS), you’ll need to set the messageWSUrlOverride
to your VPS’s external IP address.
If you’re using Docker, follow these commands to update your IP configuration:
Stop the SITCoop container using
docker stop sitcoop
Retrieve your external IP address using
curl -4 icanhazip.com
Edit the
coopConfig.json
file, using the commandnano server/user/mods/SITCoop/config/coopConfig.json
Update the file with the following configuration, replacing
messageWSUrlOverride
with the IP you got from Step 2, and setuseMessageWSUrlOverride
to TRUE{ "webSocketPort": 6970, "natHelperPort": 6971, "useUPNP": false, "useMessageWSUrlOverride": true, <--- SET THIS TO TRUE "messageWSUrlOverride": "IP:6969" }
Start the SITCoop container using
docker start sitcoop
By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue with the flea market not displaying new offers or trades in your AKI Server environment.

This is most often caused by a firewall issue, however it can also be caused by an incorrect IP address
Make sure you have entered the hosts IPv4 address correctly, and if using a VPN that there isn’t any connection issues between you and the host.
