Can't access MQL5 from a rented server

 

Hello.

I am trying to access MQL5 website from a rented virtual server, however I get HTTP Error  403 - "forbidden—you don't have permission to access this resource". Also, I can't install a MetaTrader terminal (probably it can't access one of MQL internet resources).

The server doesn't block any internet connections and there are no firewall rules prohibiting the connection to MQL5. Tech Support suggested this maybe due to the fact the my server's IP address is blocked by MQL5.com for some reason. Can MQL5 administration please verify, whether the IP is indeed blocked ?


Best Regards,

Sergey

 

Is it external VPS (not MQL5 VPS), right?

There are many reasons about error 403 - read this summary blog post about it:

Many traders are using MQL5 VPS , and this VPS is having a lot of advantadges, for example - the traders do not lose activations when they  migrate/synhronize their MT4/MT5 environment to MQL5

Thank you for your reply.

Yes, it is a dedicated VPS server from netcup.com

I've read the articles and will try to contact the Service desk, as netcup's tech support doesn't see any issues on their side.

I found one thread about this VPS provider (incl the reply from MQL5 service desk concerning it):

The problem when trying to log in via the mql5 terminal, i receive a 403 error. Suddenly it is not possible from both vps -machines to connect to mql5. I ve opened a ticket in mql5, the support team of mql5 says please change your vps provider. But i assume, my vps was blocked by mql5
