Testing Anywhere websocket endpoint for GameLift

Question

Hey all, I've been following multiple online tutorials on Anywhere fleet and I can't seem to connect my game server to the provided websocket after supplying the AUTH_TOKEN, HOST_ID, FLEET_ID, and PID (running my build on a linux server).  I tried to use firecamp to test websocket with the supplied params but it failed as well. Below is the websocket I tried to test it with.

```
wss://us-east-1.api.amazongamelift.com?pID=123&sdkVersion=5&sdkLanguage=Cpp&Authorization=&ComputeId=CustomContabo&FleetId=
```

UPDATE: In the default GameLift server, When I call `Init()` in my game server with the 3.X library installed it works as expected. But if update the gamelift library to 5.X, my game server is unable to call `Init()` for some reason.

Answer

Hi,

When the websocket connection fails, is there a particular error message you are seeing? That would help us understand what could possibly be going wrong better.

If you are still facing issues please create a [customer support case](https://support.console.aws.amazon.com/support/home) so the service team can help you debug this better.

Thanks!
