Please read How to report problems. In particular that errorLog content should be between ``` to make it unformatted and thus easier to read.

Only images can be attached to posts. That’s why you need to quote the errorLog between ```.

Note the message

Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset

If you look up that error, it can point to settings on the local network, or even on the remote host. However,

would indicate that the local network is likely at fault. Could be a DNS setting, router filtering, and so on.

Have you tried with a different machine (preferably a Windows 11, MacOSX, or Linux machine) on the same network? If so, what do you see?

Have you tried with the same machine on a different network?

If you do a WWW search on the above error java.net.SocketException: Connection reset - you will find many suggestions as to what to do.

Could you point to the original Github issue or forum post? The most relevant post I could find was Lost Connection to Game Server from January 2025. Incidentally, this is why it is important to close resolved threads so that it is easier to find solutions to problems.

You can also try to debug Vassal, to see if you can pin-point the problem more specifically.

Yours,
Christian
