Browser access in LAN not working

Albert2002 · Nov 6, 2017, 4:11 PM

Hi there,

I was running MM in an older Version, somewhere from June and it was fine. I Tried to update with “git pull” but got errors, So out of performance reason I decided to do a fresh installation of MM. I renamed the old MM directory and installed the latest v2.1.3.
I’ve installed all my old modules and used my old config as well. Everything was working fine except MMM-Remote-Control.
I figured out that I don’t have access to MM via my Browser as well e.g http://RaspberryIP:8080. When I try so I get a “access denied” error in my Browser ( Firefox, Opera, Vivaldi) Even when am via VNC connected to the Rapberry starting a Browser there. Only localhost:8080 is working.

I don’t get any errors in mm-error log.

I already installed a second MM with 2.1.3 on a different Pi but still the same problem. No access to MM via my Browser. Any idea what to do?

mm- out:

> magicmirror@2.1.3 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
> sh run-start.sh

Starting MagicMirror: v2.1.3

@Albert2002

Add address: "0.0.0.0", to your config:

var config = {
    port: 8080,
    address: "0.0.0.0",
    ipWhitelist: [], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses.
    language: "en",
    timeFormat: 12,
    units: "imperial",

I’ve tried

address: "Localhost",

already without luck, but

address: "0.0.0.0",

is working for me!

You made my day! Thank you!

Excellent! You are welcome. :-)

Maybe localhost (lower case)?

I can confirm that address: "localhost" does not allow access from LAN. That is specifying the interface. So it need to be an interface facing your ethernet/wlan, i.e. “0.0.0.0” (any iface).
