Rcon GUI 'Could not connect'

Been getting this with Rcon GUI, not sure how to fix it. I've tried running it directly off the physical server itself, but that didn't work, and running it off my own PC also gives me the same error.

No idea why it does it. My Rcon password is input correctly, I've ensured the ip and port are also correct, but it always tells me 'Could not connect'.

Am I missing something, or why is it giving me this issue?

Bercon connects fine, btw.

Yes, you are missing something.

Dayz_Server_Directory\cfgdayz\BattlEye\BEServer.cfg

Check that file. you should have:

RConPassword yourserverspassword

Sometimes after a server crash, the file renames itself to something like: BEServer_active_f0.cfg and may need to be renamed back.

edit-

I didn't read the fact that bercon connects fine, sorry! :)

Ensure that rcon gui is allowed through the firewall, and that IP:PORT and password is correct.

the GUI tool is a pile of crusty wank most of the time, so I would rather rely solely on BEC and BERCON.
