Web server

[rernst]

I can't get the web server to work. Tried localhost, nothing. Tried aliasing with 'xbox' - nothing. Did a netstat and saw nothing obvious.

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

Dont take this the wrong way, but did you turn it on in the network settings?

post a logfile via pastebin. I didn't tested it recently but the webserver should be available on localhost (127.0.0.1).

Dont know on windows but on linux it defaults to 8080 because of non-admin rights.

localhost:8080

Argh, if this isn't #ifdef then this could be the same for win32 :sniffle:

anyone tried using web server with symbian s60v3 mobiles.

when using it with windows everthing works fine but using it with my mobile i get a time out error everytime i press on a command ie: STOP or SKIP TRACK

Argh, if this isn't #ifdef then this could be the same for win32 :sniffle:

Nope, the webserver on win32 is still on port 80 and http://127.0.0.1 works fine.

My bad. Hadn't turned it on.
Just a thought: Under Windows with Uniform server (Apache install in less than a minute) one could build a very good interface where a PHP script talked to the XBMC server.

Of course, a Java app would work, too ...

any other webservers running on your box that might be using port 80?
did you try, like wiso said, http://127.0.0.1 ?

If so, then maybe a logfile would help.

I came across this as I had the same problem. Your mention of netstat made me think to run a "netstat -anb" and what I noticed was Skype using port 80 and XBMC using 81.

I've since stopped Skype using port 80 and all is working for me.
