Hi,

Why isn't the app in the marketplace? It is functional.

Thanks,

chuckwagoncomputing commented 8 years ago

The tester(s) have had issues connecting to servers. I haven't been able to reliably replicate the problem, so I don't know where to look to fix it and yet can't get it into marketplace.

Please publish it on marketplace. There are so many apps that doesnt work 100% and this app is very necessary. Must be usefull to see at least a test of ssh connection on my phone with FFOS. I leave you my mail if you can tell me another way to make it run: cristianbaldini@riseup.net. Thanks a lot for your job.

Sergio-Muriel commented 8 years ago

The FFOS marketplace is not longer maintained by mozilla, and there is no "upload version" button anymore.

Sad, now waiting for TCPConnect to be standardized and implemented elsewhere... https://www.w3.org/TR/tcp-udp-sockets/

cbaldini commented 8 years ago

We should find a way to install the app without marketplace...

AntoineTurmel commented 8 years ago

You can do so using WebIDE on Firefox Desktop.

cbaldini commented 8 years ago

But I need to do it in a cellphone, the ZTE Open 2...

AntoineTurmel commented 8 years ago

Well you can connect your phone using WebIDE and then push the app

cbaldini commented 8 years ago

Really?? Great! Thanks!!

Thanks a lot for the info!!! I'll try it and I'll tell you if I've success with the app...

I'm trying to open the app from the WebIDE, but it seems that something is wrong with the manifest: Unicación

https://github.com/chuckwagoncomputing/fxos-firemote/blob/master/manifest.webapp

El manifiesto de webapp no es un archivo JSON válido: SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 5 column 1 of the JSON data en: https://github.com/chuckwagoncomputing/fxos-firemote/blob/master/manifest.webapp

I'm trying to validate ir with the marketplace validator tool at https://marketplace.firefox.com/developers/validator and it shows me: La validación de tu app ha fallado con 2 errores.

JSON Parse Error
Manifests must be served with the HTTP header "Content-Type: application/x-web-app-manifest+json". See https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/Apps/Manifest#Serving_manifests for more information.

It seems that there's not http header in the manifest or I'm doing something wrong?

Thanks.

I solved it downloading the zip file, extracting and installing manually. I'm trying the client now :dancing_women:

cbaldini commented 8 years ago

Well the app open now but I can't open any ssh connection. Only telnet works...

cbaldini commented 8 years ago

No one knows how to fix it?

As has been noted, Firefox OS is quite dead. I've dried my tears and moved on. Maybe when a TCP socket API is standardized, Firemote will rise again. Until that day I've stopped dumping time and effort into it. I did attempt to find the issue but it only failed for me once or twice, then worked reliably no matter what I did. I even reinstalled the simulator. No luck. If the death of Firefox OS hadn't been announced at that point, I would have pressed the issue further, but no hope is no hope. So I can't help you, or won't. I am truly sorry. Firefox OS is dead. May it live long in our dreams.
