Magic Mirror updated now doesnt work

[bachoo786]

@sdetweil I mean when I updated my to 2.10 that’s when all the problem started. Before updating my I installed mmm remote control now I don’t know if that module has caused this issue of me not being able to access magic mirror remotely.

[sdetweil]

@bachoo786 ok. we need to see the front end console log thru the dev window

[bachoo786]

@sdetweil ok I can conclude one thing is that I cannot access my mirror from another device at home. My mirror is working but it’s not accessible from a different device. Something is blocking it or stopping it within the mirror.

My config hasn’t changed and its after the update that I cannot access it from another device.

[bachoo786]

@sdetweil any idea?

i’m not sure I understand what you said…

access is a vague term

ssh is part of access
load mirror on browser is part of access
ftp files is part of access

I THINK what you meant was

the mirror app is running, and u can see it.
but you cannot use a browser on another machine to pull up the the same view…

so, can we see your config.js.

I ‘think’ this is the change to address: “”,
which is supposed to default to “localhost”,
but DID default to 0.0.0.0

@sdetweil there you go:

var config = {
        address: "", // Address to listen on, can be:
                              // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
                              // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
                              // - "", "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
                              // Default, when address config is left out, is "localhost"
        port: 8181,
        ipWhitelist: [], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
                                                               // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
                                                               // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"$
                                                               // or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format$
                                                               // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/$

        language: "en",
        timeFormat: 24,
        units: "metric",
//        customCss: 'css/custom.css',

        modules: [
//              {
//                      module: "alert",
//              },

address: “”, < — means ONLY the local system can connect

change to
address: “0.0.0.0”,

means whitelist controls who can connect

[bachoo786]

@sdetweil omg that worked !!! I remember before there was no need to put any thing. How come its changed?

Anyway I have another problem, my home assistant module keeps on turning on and off like rapidly. It never used to do that before.

[sdetweil]

@bachoo786 we found a security gap. The doc says, if not specified, it is localhost. But we allowed anyone.

Home assistant on/off what does that mean? Show me the two logs.

I will be away for a few hours

[bachoo786]

@sdetweil sorry which 2 logs?

[bachoo786]

@sdetweil here is a link of a little video in gif format showing you what I mean by homeassistant module turning on and off.

[bachoo786]

@sdetweil it seems to be working fine now after few reboots to the pi.
