ngrok assigning a new URL on each start #304

Open cguthardt opened 4 years ago

cguthardt commented 4 years ago

Whenever I start "ngrok http 4000" (as per the Configuration section of the Documentation), ngrok assigns a new URL in the form of [random_characters].ngrok.io.

This may work for the initial setup, but sooner or later the connection from Amazon to the GeeMusic server will fail due to the ngrok URL having changed.

To answer my own issue: This is how the ngrok free plan works. If you want a permanent URL you need to pay for ngrok. This info should definitely go into the documentation here, so people who don't want to pay don't waste their time with ngrok!
