MMM-Caldav not listening on port 8080

peterpan894

the https was a typo. The ipWhitelist looks like

ipWhitelist: []

that should be fine. I do not have a desktop on the rpi so checking on the same client is not possible.

Must there not be a listener on port 8080? In my case there is none. I have also no idea how to debug, even with all logs on, there is no aditional information except for:

[13.11.2023 22:19.31.680] [ERROR] Calendar Error. Could not fetch calendar:  http://localhost:8080/CALDAV/wielens.ics TypeError: fetch failed
    at Object.fetch (node:internal/deps/undici/undici:11372:11)

    code: 'ECONNREFUSED',
    syscall: 'connect',
    address: '127.0.0.1',
    port: 8080
  }
}

I tried with Curl:

curl -v http://localhost:8080/CALDAV/calname.ics
Trying 127.0.0.1:8080...
connect to 127.0.0.1 port 8080 failed: Connection refused
Failed to connect to localhost port 8080: Connection refused
Closing connection 0
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 8080: Connection refused

The only thing which can be the cause is that i run

 npm run server

can someone check on a working system if there is a listener on port 8080? I can only excecute the server as i have a headless system

Thanks

Could you post this to issue board or discussion of GitHub repository? I should look inside with focus. And maybe needs to talk more closely.

Ah, you may run the server and client on different devices.
“localhost” points a device-self, so “localhost” in client will be different from that of server.
Use IP address of server instead of “localhost”

I tried 127.0.0.1, 192.168.x.x, same result. The curl was excecuted on the same machine the MM server was running

@MMRIZE if the node_helper depends on info sent down from the modulename.js, then it will not happem as that runs in a browser…

so @peterpan894 one thing to try is to open the MM server in a browser
then see if the port is open

The part serving iCal is a pure express logic without any configuration value. It just serve URL from static files on start of node_helper. So ideally, it should be served regardless of the front client.

This image shows that I tried serveronly mode, then try to access Company.ics which is not even fetched in this execution before any client is launched. (The iCal file was fetched in the previous execution)
And showing it hit the access but failed due to no auth. (So that’s why the browser show auth dialog box)

With curl (anyway, -v option is not enough to access this served ical. You should use -u option.) It should have 401 error withou auth info.

~ % curl -v http://localhost:8080/CALDAV/Company.ics
*   Trying 127.0.0.1:8080...
* connect to 127.0.0.1 port 8080 failed: Connection refused

So with -u options;

So it works for me.

Ok. Let’s check from the beginning. Is Your MM server served on port 8080? Can you open MM frontend on browser with http://localhost:8080?
Your symptom is very weird because;
If MM is served normally, this module SHOULD work. It uses express delivered from MM itself, not individually installed. So if this module’s express has a problem, MM should have the same problem. (I found unused require in the source :D. Anyway due to that, I can confirm I’m using MM’s express not individual one.)

Can you check the output of ?

sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep 8080

while running npm run server

I checked with using the -u option on curl but that does not help. The “connection refused” is also a symptom if the port is closed which seems to be the case on my end.

@peterpan894
Send me whole configuration. When describe me which enviroments (for server and for client) are using. (eouia0819@gmail.com)

MMRIZE

@peterpan894

~ % lsof -i -P -n | grep 8080
node       7922 eouia   22u  IPv6 0x58cc15e911673fb5      0t0  TCP [::1]:8080 (LISTEN)

@peterpan894
If your 8080 port is blocked, you cannot serve MM either.
As far as I read, you run server-only mode. It means you will run MM client (browser or electron whatever) on some device. Is your MM running on the other port than 8080?
