Connect TVML client over internet #1

Open q20 opened 7 years ago

q20 commented 7 years ago

I have tested connecting to the service remotely by forwarding a single TCP port from my firewall to my NAS (5555, in my case), thinking this would work, but it doesn't. I think TVML says something like application.js not found... I don't quite remember and am not home to check. A port scan indicates the port is definitely listening...

These are the requirements:

  1. You need to open the same port the app runs on (5000 by default).
  2. Define in the client app (on the ATV) this ip: IP=http://: Leave all rest as default.

The client app will try to reach: http://:/js/application.js Let me know if this works.

Nah, I set the executable to use port 5555. This works locally. I then forward that port to my NAS, run a port scan from outside my network to ensure 5555 is listening and then try to connect TVML. Which doesn't work. Perhaps I can test again this evening and confirm settings, but I'm quite certain I've configured everything correctly.

Do you see something in the server console? If the client reaches it, it should say something like: GET /js/application.js HTTP/1.1" 200

If you don't see anything, there's something wrong in your connection.
