All DayZ error codes
Every connection and kick error code the game can show, what it means in plain words, and what to actually do about it.
How to read a code
Every code is two halves. The first says which stage failed, the second says exactly what went wrong. Once you can split it, you can place any code, including ones not listed here.
0x0004007E
0004 the stage: 0001 connecting, 0002 rejected, 0004 kicked
007E the exact reason inside that stage
Connecting to a server
Category 0001. The client could not even start the connection, so these are almost always your side or the network in between.
| Code | What the game says | What to do |
|---|---|---|
0x00010001
SERVER_UNREACHABLE
|
Could not reach the server. | The server is down, restarting, or a firewall is in the way. Check the address and port, then try again in a minute. |
0x00010002
ALREADY_CONNECTING
|
The client is already joining a server. | You pressed connect twice. Wait for the first attempt to finish or cancel it. |
0x00010003
ERROR_MSG_SHOWED
|
Please confirm the error on screen. | - |
0x00010004
INCORRECT_CLIENT_STATE
|
The client is already connected or is connecting to a server. | - |
0x00010005

0x00010006

0x0001000D
ALREADY_ON_ANOTHER_SERVER
|

|

0x0001000F
ALREADY_ON_SERVER
