After update to Mirror to 2.1.3 - no working Whitlist

Sandy2503

I change my config.js in:

/*************** AUTO GENERATED BY REMOTE CONTROL MODULE ***************/

var config =
{
        port: 8081,
        address:"0.0.0.0",
        electronOptions: {

        },
        ipWhitelist: [
                "127.0.0.1",
                "::ffff:127.0.0.1",
                "::1",
                "192.168.178.20/24"
        ],
        language: "de",

and now it works again.

I have now access to MMM-Remote-Control from my HomePC again …

@Sandy2503 ok nice to know. My problem, that - as i wrote - that with the “developer checkout” from github my MagicMirror is now broken :(

Adding

address: “0.0.0.0”,

to the config.js also did the trick for me.

Thanks!

As soon i put “0.0.0.0” to my config (see bellow with empty adress"") i get a black screen on start MM

var config = {
port: 8080,
address:“”,
language: “de”,
timeFormat: 24,
units: “metric”,

Any ideas?

hi!
maybe wrong config.js ??
here is my working code:
var config =
{
address: “0.0.0.0”,
electronOptions: {

},
ipWhitelist: [
	"10.0.0.1/24",
	"::ffff:10.0.0.1/120",
	"127.0.0.1",
	"::ffff:127.0.0.1",
	"::1"
],

and so on…

greets

cben0ist

is this an acceptable configuration ?

address:"0.0.0.0",

or is it better specifying the actual server ip here ?

I put my config like this:

{
	port: 1103,
	address: '0.0.0.0',
	electronOptions: {
		
	},
	ipWhitelist: [
		"127.0.0.1",
		"::ffff:127.0.0.1",
		"::1",
		"::ffff:192.168.113.60",
		"::ffff:192.168.113.22",
		"::ffff:192.168.113.97",
		"::ffff:192.168.113.29",
		"::ffff:192.168.113.103",
		"::ffff:192.168.113.66"
	],

The Remote-Control says “This device is not allowed to acces your mirror”. The IP-Adresses are correct.

FreddeHamm

i have the same problem

i already set “adress” to :“0.0.0.0” and edited the ipwhitelist to

ipWhitelist: [“::fff:0.0.0.0/1”, “::fff:0.8.0.0/1”, “::fff:128.0.0.0/2”, “::fff:192.0.0.0/3”, “::fff:224.0.0.0/4”, “127.0.0.1”, “::ffff:127.0.0.1”, “::1”]

but still i get no access.

Btw. its a raspberry pi zero with serveronly

@Niggich For my setup (raspberry pi 2) something changed after the update, but when I changed my IP addresses to the IPv4 notation (remove ::ffff: from your addresses) it worked again. Which format do the blocked addresses have in your logs (see below)?

@FreddeHamm Are you sure those CIDR numbers are correct?

When in doubt, check the output or logs (pm2 logs MagicMirror or pm2 logs mm if you used the old auto starting guide), there should be a line telling you which IP address was received. Also there are a calculators which transform your IP range to the CIDR notation.

Same here, tried addres 0.0.0.0 and various things in the Whitelist.
A ping gives “destination unreachable”… SSH also doesn’t work.
Can someone please suggest ways to troubleshoot?

Have you tried OUTSIDE your Whitelist, as such:

var config = {
	port: 8080,
        address: "0.0.0.0",
	ipWhitelist: [], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses.

Nick

Thx @Mykle1, indeed I have. See the beginning of my (working) config file below.
What is suspicious to me is that not even a Ping works to that IP, even though I’ve checked it by printing it on the screen of the MM and in the router.
Also, before my Whitelist was a long list of IPs, now I’ve tried the [] option but to no avail…

/*************** AUTO GENERATED BY REMOTE CONTROL MODULE ***************/

var config =
{
        address: "0.0.0.0",
        electronOptions: {

        },

        ],
        modules: [
                {
                        module: "alert",
                        config: {

                        }
                },
                {
                        module: "updatenotification",
                        position: "top_bar",
                        config: {

                        }
                },
                {
                        module: "MMM-Remote-Control",
                        position: "middle_center",
                        config: {

                        }
                },

Pinging the mirror’s IP fails? Pinging other devices on your network is successful?

Nick

Yes, including my personal wiki on another Raspberry Pi, all with 2-5ms

None of this may help, but you can use it as a checklist.

ifconfig on Pi reports the IP address you are trying to ping (wlan0) assuming wifi
Connecting Pi via ethernet, ifconfig and trying to ping then
Pinging another device from the Pi itself
The MM software updates. Clock, calendar, weather, etc?

Logically, if the only thing you can’t do is ping or connect to the Pi, then something is wrong on the software side, whether a corruption, an edit or a failed installation of the software or dependencies during the upgrade process. The answer in that case, with the most success, is a manual installation, IMHO. You can continue to troubleshoot, which could take a long time, or you can know in less than an hour. You will not lose anything in doing this.

@Nick As @Mykle1 said: something is wrong if you can neither ping nor ssh. You definitely need to check your general wifi/ethernet setup. This is not something that can be solved through the config file.

Just came across this post while troubleshooting this issue.

I got it working by converting the ip range to CIDR format by using this page as mentioned in older posts. I added these ip’s to the whitelist (without the ::ffff: !) and it worked.
It’s also important to set the address value to “0.0.0.0”
