Hello everyone,<\/p>\n

I am assuming you have encountered this error when using Shadowsocks and have stumbled upon this website upon Googling it. :)<\/p>\n

I have also faced this issue and spent countless hours trying to find out what went wrong.<\/p>\n

Solution<\/h3>\n

Step 1<\/strong>: Check your Shadowsocks server’s IPtables (if you’re running Fedora, check Firewalld too)<\/p>\n

Have you added an exception rule for IPtables? If not, you should run the following commands:<\/p>\n

\/sbin\/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport SERVER_PORT_NUMBER\u00a0-j ACCEPT<\/code><\/p>\n

\/etc\/init.d\/iptables save<\/code><\/p>\n

\/etc\/init.d\/iptables restart<\/code><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Replace SERVER_PORT_NUMBER with the port number of your Shadowsocks server.<\/p>\n

If you would like to save the hassle of doing so, you can simply turn off IPtables with the following commands :<\/p>\n

service iptables stop<\/code><\/p>\n

chkconfig iptables off<\/code><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

By now it should be working, however, if you’re still facing this error, proceed to step 2<\/p>\n

Step 2<\/strong>: Run Shadowsocks client as Administrator<\/p>\n

\"shadowsocks-run-as-admin\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you’re running windows, you need to always run Shadowsocks client as an administrator or else it will not work.<\/p>\n
