Troubleshoot Connection Issues After Installing the Mod

Verify the Mod Is Working

If you're still experiencing 'unknown host' errors after installing the mod, first confirm the mod is active. Check your mods list in the main menu — Server Address Space Fix Mod should appear there.

Check Your Server Address Format

While the mod removes spaces, it cannot fix other address problems:

• Incorrect IP or domain: Double-check the address spelling
• Wrong port number: Ensure you include the correct port (e.g., example.com:25565)
• Server offline: The server itself may be down
• Firewall or network issues: Your connection may be blocked

Test with Direct Connect

1. Try using "Direct Connect" instead of a saved server

2. Paste the address carefully

3. If it still fails, the problem isn't spaces

When to Seek Help

If the mod is installed and enabled but connection still fails, the issue is likely:

• Server unavailability
• Network configuration
• An incorrect address format beyond just spaces

Contact your server administrator or check the server's status page for more information.
