Cannot connect to the server #19

GiovanniChiarion commented 1 year ago

Hi, when I run the server.exe, clicking in the icon in the system tray I see 2 http servers. One that starts with my computer name, the other numerical (noth with the same port). No one works in the phone (PC and phone connected with the same wifi), the numerical one loads for indefinite time. I tried also to disable windows firewall but nothing happened. Any possible solution? Thanks.

The IP for the interface might be different than what the program detected. One thing you could try is to run ipconfig and use the IPv4 Address for the correct interface (Might be Wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi in your case)

I think it's much more likely to be a firewall issue. I had the same problem and needed to create an inbound rule in Windows Defender allowing private network access for server.exe.

This was the issue for me - the app picked up the IP address of a completely different (and virtual!) network interface that was never going to be available to my phone over wifi. That one is listed before the wifi interface (in ipconfig /all) that actually connects to my router. A possible improvement to this app, then, might be to try guessing harder about which IP to show - in my case, the correct one shows my router's IP as the "Default Gateway", while that field is blank for the interface and IP it chose to show.
