Bind to virtual ip

Dev Community Apps & Creations

On the main ip of my server runs a webserver.

So I thought within the wiki article https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/wiki/Settings-for-advanced-use-and-troubleshooting that it's possible to define another ip.

 

 

enable_plexconnect_autodetect = False 

ip_plexconnect = 192.168.2.50 

ip_webserver = 192.168.2.50

 

But PlexConnect.py still wants to bind to the main local ip (192.168.2.4)...

 

Any hints what's going wrong?

Could you please give more information on the version you are using?

ip_webserver is kind of old - outdated, not used any more. You might still have it in your Settings.cfg file... but it's not used in current source code.

The other two settings are used, though. And I have no reports (other than yours) about them not working... Did you add them manually (then they are - wild guess - not supported) or were they added by PlexConnect and you just changed there value (then it should work...).

You might want to attach the complete Settings file, plus a log of a PlexConnect startup.

Thanks found my failure. There were 2 enable_plexconnect_autodetect entries and the last (wrong) one matched :-)

Additionally I changed ip_webserver to ip_plexconnect and it works now.

Seems that there are many wrong informations within the PlexConnect wiki.

Thanks

Don't call it "wrong" - call it "old".

Tell us where... and we are going to fix it.
