It's showing 192.168.81.1 which is my VMWare IP.  VMWare assigns an IP to it's 
interface even when it's not running.  

Would be ideal if you could pick which interface it would use in preferences 
(though I'm not sure how hard that is to do).  

Here's my ifconfig:

I'm trying to keep it simple for users, so I look for some network interface 
that is not loopback neither is virtual, please copy this jar file to 
/usr/share/android-notifier-desktop and let me know if it works for you: 
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1401233/android-notifier-desktop.jar

That folder is protected, says I don't have permissions.  How do I copy/replace 
it?  I'm logged in as an admin user.

Also, are the issues from 222 included in this one?

Original comment by atomics...@gmail.com on 11 Oct 2010 at 11:31

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Try this command: sudo cp android-notifier-desktop.jar 
/usr/share/android-notifier-desktop

This is the same jar file posted on issue 222.

Works perfectly and solves issue 222 and 223.  

Thank you!

Also, I've upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 and still working.  FYI.

FYI this bug is not specific to Linux; I just had the same problem on OSX with 
0.5.1 (I also have VMWare interfaces).  However, even without installing the 
update jar in #3 I was still able to send test notifications (so presumably 
A.N.D. listens on all interfaces and just picks one address to display in the 
preferences window?).

Thanks for your work on Android Notifier -- I just installed it today but it 
looks to be of high quality and very promising for the future.  I look forward 
to SMS send support especially.

I'm getting this vmware issue too in Linux.  I still get notifications too.  
Sent me down the wrong troubleshooting path.  Turns out I forgot to open 10600 
in my firewall.  Thought it had to do with the incorrect IP.

Looks like it's only a glitch with the displayed interface, I'm also being 
shown vmnet8 but the program is actually listening on the correct eth0 
interface (or maybe on all interfaces).
