      @Jopyth Yes I have it working now! Still not sure why only some modules can be hidden though

            Hi @fox , where you able to access from other device? A smartphone for example. Because I can access from the browser where the MM is installed, but not from other devices.
            My whitelist is empty [ ]

              Hello,

              I’m also having issues connecting to the remote module on my PC through Chrome and IE. The page can’t be reached. The module is active and the link to use is shown on my magic mirror.

              My IP whitelist which cotains my PC IP:

              ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.0.2"],
              

              I also tried below based on on on the comments in this topic:

              cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/
              chmod -R 777 MMM-Remote-Control/
              

              but that just tells me that it can’t access /MagicMirror/modules/, the file or folder doesn’t exist.

              Another topic mentioned changing;

              address: "localhost",
              

              to;

              address: "0.0.0.0",
              

              Should I try that?

              Update: I changed to 0.0.0.0. and that I got a responce but it told me my PC is not autorized although my IP is added in the whitelist, so I just removed the whole whitelist for the time being, and now I’m able to acces the remote module.

                Hi fellow MM-builders,

                the same problem occured with my build but instead a 192.168.xxx.xxx I use 10.12.0.135:8080.html
                Unfortunately it shows following message:

                ‘This device is not allowed to access your mirror.
                Please check your config.js or config.js.sample to change this’

                My steps to solve this issue were:

                1. change ipWhitelist to ipWhitelist:[ ]
                2. change ipWhitelist to ipWhitelist: [0.0.0.0]
                  3.change ipWhitelist to the specific IP adresses of my devices.

                Unfortunately, none of this steps solved the error.

                Maybe you guys have a tip or trick on how to solve that.
                Thank you in advance :)

                    Dear @Mykle1,

                    my config.js file looks like this:

                    var config = {
                            adress: "0.0.0.0",
                            port: 8080,
                            ipWhitelist: [],
                            language: 'de',
                            timeFormat: 24,
                            units: 'metric',
                    

                    Unfortunately, my screen went black after I 've changed the config file and rebooted.

                    Could you make a guess, where the problem is located?

                      @PaulB said in [MMM-Remote-Control] Can not access remote control module:

                      adress: “0.0.0.0”,

                      You spelled address wrong. :-/

                        @Mykle1,

                        thanks :-D

                        call me dumb hahahahahahaha

                        Unfortunately the modules are not loading now.

                        But whats interesting is that if your Ip adress is like “12.10.0.xxx”, the module won’t accept it. If you give your devices a new static IP adress like “12.10.0.xx” then the module works fine. But shows a black screen.
