    I understand the stupid question…)
    I have remote access to the mirror via VNC on raspberries.
    I need to look at and save errors for the module developer in the browser console.
    How to do this?
    I go to the mirror through VNC, open the browser on raspberries with the mirror running, open the console there, but it’s empty there.
    I try to enter the IP address in the browser on my PC, but this address does not open.

      @Laz on the pi open a terminal window

      type
      hostname
      and
      ip addr

      the first will give you the local network name of that pi. (default is raspberry)

      console. on whatever system has the browser open, do ctrl-shift-i to.open the developers window

      then the messages are on the console tab
      you can use the filter field to get just messages related at a specific module, by entering a unique part of its name.

      I use ssh, never VNC. I can use the bitvise or winscp clients on windows to give me an ssh terminal window, and also a file manager view of the pi file system to double click to edit files. I use notepad++ or visual studio code as the system text file editor.

      Mac and Linux can give u the remote file system view as well.

        @Laz As all of my systems are behind a firewall - I’ve opened the Mirror to “public” access by using the config of

        var config = {
        	address: "0.0.0.0",
        	port: 8080,
        	ipWhitelist: [],
        ... 
        

        then, I simply load the mirror in my main computer’s browser with http://mirror:8080 and use the devtools of my browser to view the errors and such.

        The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"
