Cant access server from local network or via IP

[DCSDB]

Hi,

Great work. I am trying to get the server running on my android device and then later build upon it. I can deploy the app to Android and localhost:8080 works fine from the Android device, but accessing via 192.168.X.X both on the device and via a PC on the same Wifi network times out. What am I missing?

Request came from me over Play Store. Silly me - fixed the issue.

Just enable Server and deploy the settings servlet. Go to your localhost:8080/settings and change Binding addr to your local network address. (Should be shown in dropdown list) Afterwards disable and re-enable the server in the app. Should now be bound to the new addr and accessible from everywhere.

May raise the issue here: Would be cool if it'd be possible to change the Bind addr from the App instead of the settings.

Thanks for your great work!

You are welcome. Generally I can't solve the problem gracefully yet, since there is a wide range of Android devices on different networks and auto detection of a proper network configuration isn't obvious. Could you elaborate more of your requirement, I am pretty sure it is easy to satisfy?

Some android phones have a NetworkInterface with name "name:nunber%dummy0", use adb shell ifconfig, Got
