Connection Issue - Feedback #307

Open mwbrooks opened 9 years ago

mwbrooks commented 9 years ago

To better understand where each developer's connection issue is occurring, we'd appreciate you taking the time to fill out this survey!

1. What operating system are you using?

If you are using Windows, please let us know if it’s 32-bit or 64-bit?

For example:

By default, Windows often has the built-in firewall enabled. You can check under your system settings.

3. Are you using the PhoneGap CLI or PhoneGap Desktop?

4. What version of the PhoneGap CLI or PhoneGap Desktop are you using?

For the PhoneGap CLI, you can check your version by typing phonegap --version

For the PhoneGap Desktop, you can check your version by selection ? -> About on the sidebar.

5. What mobile device platform are you using?

Is it Android, iOS, or Windows Phone?

We would appreciate knowing the version as well. For example, iOS 8.3 or Android 5.1.

6. In the past, have you successfully paired the CLI/Desktop to the mobile app?

Has your network changed since the last successful connection?

7. Can you download the app archive locally?

  1. Open and serve a project
    • On the PhoneGap Desktop, open a project and ensure the bottom banner is green and lists an IP address.
    • On the PhoneGap CLI, navigate into a project and run phonegap serve
  2. Open your desktop web browser
    • Please ensure that the browser is Safari or Chrome.
    • Browse to x.x.x.x:3000/__api__/appzip
    • Substitute x.x.x.x for your IP address, such as 10.0.1.7:3000/__api__/appzip
    • If this step fails, please try localhost and let us know if that works instead.
  3. A zip archive should be downloaded
  4. Unzip the archive and ensure that your project files exist.
    • The files exist or don’t, so there is no need to inspect each file.
  5. Do you see any 404 or error messages in the PhoneGap CLI output or PhoneGap Desktop log file?
    • You can access the PhoneGap Desktop log from the sidebar window icon.

      8. Can you download the app archive on your mobile device browser?

Now we are going to do the same steps as above, but on your mobile device browser. This will tell us whether the network connection is okay.

  1. Open and serve a project
    • On the PhoneGap Desktop, open a project and ensure the bottom banner is green and lists an IP address.
    • On the PhoneGap CLI, navigate into a project and run phonegap serve
  2. Open your mobile web browser
    • Please ensure that the browser is Mobile Safari, Mobile Chrome, Android Browser, or IE.
    • Browse to x.x.x.x:3000/__api__/appzip
    • Substitute x.x.x.x for your IP address, such as 10.0.1.7:3000/__api__/appzip
  3. A zip archive should be downloaded
  4. Do you see any 404 or error messages in the PhoneGap CLI output or PhoneGap Desktop log file?
    • You can access the PhoneGap Desktop log from the sidebar window icon.

      9. Can you download the app archive with the PhoneGap mobile app?

Next, we are going to repeat the same step as above but use the PhoneGap mobile app. This will tell us if the connection problem is due to the app rather than the desktop client.

  1. Open and serve a project
    • On the PhoneGap Desktop, open a project and ensure the bottom banner is green and lists an IP address.
    • On the PhoneGap CLI, navigate into a project and run phonegap serve
  2. Open your PhoneGap Developer App
    • Connect to x.x.x.x:3000
    • Substitute x.x.x.x:3000 for your IP address, such as 10.0.1.7:3000
  3. You should see a Connecting… and Extracting… message followed by your app.
  4. Do you see any 404 or error messages in the PhoneGap CLI output or PhoneGap Desktop log file?
    • You can access the PhoneGap Desktop log from the sidebar window icon.

      10. Tell us a little more about your app

  5. How large is the www/ directory?
  6. How many files are in the www/ directory?

    11. Does a Hello World App work?

Finally, we would like to rule out your app has the problem by testing the default Hello World app.

  1. Create a new app and begin serving it
    • On the PhoneGap Desktop, create a project and ensure the bottom banner is green and lists an IP address.
    • On the PhoneGap CLI, create a project using phonegap create my-new-app, change into the project, and run phonegap serve
  2. Open your PhoneGap Developer App
    • Connect to x.x.x.x:3000
    • Substitute x.x.x.x:3000 for your IP address, such as 10.0.1.7:3000
  3. You should see a Connecting… and Extracting… message followed by your app.
    • If the above fails, please try connecting using your mobile web browser.
    • If it continues to fail, please try connecting using your desktop web browser.

More info: iPhone 4s running iOS 8.4 works fast phone running Android 5.1 works fast

BTW, LOVE this tool

Hello, I am facing a similar issue with PhoneGap desktop app.http://:3000/api/appzip gives '404 /api/appzip in the PhoneGap server logs. Also i see 'Cannot Get /api/appzip on the local browser. I have tried giving permissions to the project i created. Is there something i am missing on configuration side?

nicoszerman commented 9 years ago

Was filling the survey when It read about the firewall and a light bulb appeared over me, turned it off and magically the app was working. You should add somewhere an alert like "Remember to turn off your firewall", at least I had completely forgotten.

ctinach commented 9 years ago

I have a similar issue on Windows x64. I updated npm, disabled the firewall, etc... but I still get a 500 server error for cordova.js. If I try to access it directly this is what I get

is there any workaround to this? I'm testing on the Hello World project.

Does a Hello World App work? No

This is the first time I’m using phone gap developer app and I’m not able to connect it form the APP. All i get is Downloading…. I’m able to connect to the server on my mobiles safari and also was able to download the zip file on both my mac and iphone

I’m very certain that the problem lies within the app, so let me give more details about the phone its an iPhone 3gs which is running iOS 6.1.6

jhomme commented 8 years ago

One thing I think to check is to ensure, if you are running windows, that the firewall is allowing the node.js to create the server. My apologies for not being technical. I didn't notice that Windows was asking me if I wanted to allow this to happen. Once I allowed it to occur, I got the app to display the hello world app.

ppetree commented 8 years ago

Thanks for that. I had allowed node.js access through the firewall so that wasn't the problem.

In the end I deleted node.js and all the crap that goes with it; deleted the android ask/tools and virtually everything that goes with it; deleted desktop build (what a waste that is) etc. Once that was all done and everything even remotely related was deleted I installed the Intel XDK environment and, while its not perfect it's 1000% better than the kludge everyone else is working with.

  1. What operating system are you using? Windows 10 64-bit
  2. Do you have a software firewall enabled? yes, but open for Electron
  3. Are you using the PhoneGap CLI or PhoneGap Desktop? PhoneGap Desktop
  4. What version of the PhoneGap CLI or PhoneGap Desktop are you using? 0.2.1
  5. What mobile device platform are you using? iOS 9.2.1 for both iPhone 6 and iPad Air
  6. In the past, have you successfully paired the CLI/Desktop to the mobile app? First time. Doesn't work for iPhone, but works for iPad ('device ready')
  7. Can you download the app archive locally? zip file downloaded, project files exist. No 404 or any other error in log.
  8. Can you download the app archive on your mobile device browser? iPhone: doesn't download beause the server doesn't respond. iPad: didn't try, because the app work there. No 404 or any other error in log.
  9. Can you download the app archive with the PhoneGap mobile app? I get only: downloading... - tap to cancel. This repears until I get an error on the iphone screen: "Alert. Unable to download archive from the server. Please enter valid url to connect to." Nothing in the Phonegap Desktop error log.
  10. Tell us a little more about your app. This is the Default Hello World example. I can see the change on the iPad by the way (adding Hello in front of Phonegap).
  11. Does a Hello World App work? It does on the iPad, not on the iPhone. I checked the server address multiple times, including the port number. Everything is on the same wireless network. iPhone and iPad use the same iOS version. The iPhone has more free space than the iPad.

I'm on a mac using a virtual machine for windows (VMWare) and my issue was solved when I changed the VM's network settings so the VM appears as a separate device on the network. As in, they don't share a local IP.
