Studio Loses Network Connection when Starting a Local Playtest Server on Mac

Since recently (about 2 weeks ago), when I start a local playtest server. The players won’t make a connection, it then gives this error to the client:


And on the server from the ProfileService module I’m using it gives this error:

It happens in every place, and after it happened studio does not have any connection anymore (see screenshot). To get a connection again I’d have to restart Roblox Studio.

I’ve already tried restarting my pc, fully reinstalling Roblox Studio, turning off beta-features and turning off all plugins. I also checked if it happens with my alt account and it happens there too.

The bug happens every time I join the local test server and when I do a normal singleplayer join, the bug does not happen.

Something to note is that I’m using a macOS and when I test it on my Windows, it all works fine. These are my macOS specs:

This is the main place Im working in and where the bug started occurring in case you want to check that out Utopia Dev - Roblox

Repro

Join a place on Mac and start a local player test server with at least two players. Then it should give the errors provided above in the output.

We’ve filed a ticket to our internal database for this issue and we will come back as soon as we have updates!

Thanks for the report!

Never mind my previous comment - I can repro it on the Player 1 client instance when launching with server + 2 clients on Mac when test-launching places with Plugins requiring permissions.

Great : ), only the player 1 client having the errors happens to me too

Hi @Mr_Purrsalot @Focia19! The bug is still occurring for me. Is there any progress?

Hi - there were some network outages and issues around the timeframe of this bug. We haven’t had a repro, is this still occurring? Otherwise will close.
