Link never opens on Android or Ipad #283

Closed MurilloDaniel closed 1 month ago

MurilloDaniel commented 1 month ago

Once I open Weylus and type the link on my Android phone and Ipad the page never opens, on my Ipad it simply says that it could not connect to the server while on Android it says Address unreacheable.

ps.: I'm on Linux, Nobara

Can you post the output from Weylus after your attempts to connect?

For example (my case):

INFO Webserver listening at 127.0.0.1:1701...

And what link you're using to connect.

And what link you're using to connect.

That's the thing, there is none, Weylus give no output (It just say this: "INFO Webserver listening at 0.0.0.0:1701..."). The link I'm using is the one that shows in the "Connect your tablet to" box

I'm not telling you that man. It's fine if you can't help but I'm not giving you the link that directly shows my screen.

Unless your machine has a public IP address and no firewall - a configuration that I've not seen the days of Trumpet Winsock - that link will not allow anyone to connect to your machine over the internet. If you are worried, enter something in the "access code" box.

ok, why did you closed the issue before I could give the link then?

Diordany commented 1 month ago

ps.: It's http://192.168.0.114:1701 btw

Probably a valid LAN ip. Can you put 192.168.0.114 into the Bind Address field instead of 0.0.0.0, restart Weylus and try to connect again from your tablet?

electronstudio commented 1 month ago

Because there's no point have 2 issues discussing the same thing.

What happens if you open the link on the same machine you are running Weylus?

Diordany commented 1 month ago

I think it's probably not even an issue with Weylus, let alone a WeylusCOmmunityEdition issue, which @electronstudio already pointed out in the other issue.

I tried that since I read in another issue and it worked, opening the link showed my screen but neither my ipad or android did it.

Also Diordany, just tried what you asked and I got same error

Okay, thanks for trying. Can you also try @electronstudio's suggestion:

And on the same machine also try http://127.0.0.1:1701/.

Edit: shouldn't have worked anyway, since you used 192.168.0.114 as the bind address, my bad.. Might work if you enter 0.0.0.0.

electronstudio commented 1 month ago

Definitely network issue then. Could be a firewall. Post output of command sudo iptables -L

I mentioned in my last message, but basically the screen sharing worked if I open the page on the machine running Weylus. If the issue is a network would using a cable fix it? I dunno it if would work since I'm trying on my Ipad though

Didn't worked

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination

There's no firewall on your machine causing it then. There could be one on your wifi router blocking the connection. You would need to check the router config.

Is your ipad on the same wifi network as your computer? What is IP address of ipad?

Yes using a cable might fix it.

"Is your ipad on the same wifi network as your computer?" - Yes, no idea the Ipad IP adress though

What are the steps to use the cable? I plug in my pc and the Ipad but nothing changes.

For android you can set up networking over a USB cable with the adb command - see the end of the Weylus README for instructions.

For iPad I don't know. You may have to get a USB->ethernet adapter.

I still think the most likely culprit is your wireless router has some setting that is blocking hosts from communicating with one another. Public wifi networks are usually configured like this.

You can find the IP address of the iPad on the wifi settings screen, but that's only the first step to investigating network connectivity issues.

That should be the gist of it.

found it thanks, it's: 192.168.0.132

Diordany commented 1 month ago

Is the subnet mask also 255.255.255.0 on your iPad?

yes

Diordany commented 1 month ago

yes

Then at least we can confirm that they're on the same network.

Diordany commented 1 month ago

Maybe try ping -c 1 192.168.0.132 on your PC? And post the output.

Ping response doesn’t work on iOS unfortunately so you need to use other tools to diagnose. I would check the router configuration and then if there’s no setting there you can change perhaps find a subreddit that specialises in home network configuration and ask them to help.

Diordany commented 1 month ago

And I'd suggest you also close this issue, since it turned out not to be an issue with Weylus (you were able to connect from a browser on the same machine).

H-M-H commented 1 month ago

Closing as this is not an issue with Weylus itself. Thanks to everyone who's helped out!
