suddenly cant connect to localhost:8090/home

Post by startreksteve »

I've been playing with pushbullet and notifymyandroid, and got em working fine, now I find I cant connect to Mylar in my browser? I've rebooted the Ubuntu PC and restarted Mylar.py, no joy, its running in the terminal - I can see, I tried changing to port 8091 and 800, just cant connect, whats up?

Have you tried connecting to the ip address instead of the localhost itself? Are Mylar and the browser you're trying to open it with on the same machine?

If you're running through a proxy you may have to disable it...

yup, tried 127.0.0.1 lucid:8090 and yes they are on the same machine, it was working an hour previously!
I can connect to lucid:9000 which is my squeezeboxserver, but not localhost:8090. If I type in localhost in the address bar, I get:

It works!
This is the default web page for this server.
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

I tried changing the port number several times with no effect
If I type lsof -i:8090 in terminal, I get:
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
python 31132 steve 4u IPv6 37068 0t0 TCP localhost:8090 (LISTEN)

So Mylar is running connected to 8090, why cant I connect?
(Its on Ubuntu 10.04)

sorted it!
http_host was =localhost instead of http_host = 0.0.0.0

Dunno how that got changed, but, whatever all working good now!
