Hi all! I'm having troubles trying to access amule from my other computer via amuleweb, I'm under Ubuntu and installed it from scrath, compiling and installing all by myself. aMule works fine in the computer, it downloads fast and never hangs.
But back to the problem, I enable:
- Enable Webserver (i change the port here and set it up in the router directing it to the computer that hosts aMule eg: 192.168.1.4, port 2121)
- Accept external connections
- Use TCP ports instead of UNIX local sockets (here I set up with the same port as before, 2121)
Fine, then I switch on the other computer, open FireFox and type: 192.168.1.4:2121 appears a dialog where i'm supposed to download a bin file and in the computer that hosts aMule appears: Unauthorized access attempt. Connection closed.
I don't know what's wrong, I read the FAQ and I assume that I don't need to install anything else 'cause I compiled it from the source.
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for helping!!

Thanks for answer Stefanero!
No I didn't, but I did it right now, restarted aMule and still doesn't work, the other computer asks for downloading a BIN file and aMule says the same: Unauthorized access attempt. Connection closed. 100% the same.
I'm using aMule 2.0.0rc7.
Is it correct what I type in the other computer?

PS:
also first thing you should try if it works from localhost...
since I dont remember when it was brocken not working over LAN.
so first try localhost, not that it does not work anymore at rc7 already. ;)

pinchodetortilla, first you have to understand that external connections and webserver port are two different things. Unlike eMule, we have a separate amuleweb program, that you have to start. This one connects to aMule (the external connections port), and your browser can connect to this amuleweb program (Webserver port).
Second, aMule-2.0.0rc7 has some LAN problems with amuleweb, so I suggest you use current CVS for this, or wait next release (should be soon).

Hmmm, then here is the problem, I assumed I don't have to do anything for amuleweb before starting amule 'cause I compiled it, so 99% that's it. I looked up the webserver folder but didn't find any executable file. How should I do it for starting amuleweb? Do I need to install something?
Thanks!

you have to compile with "configure --enable-amuleweb" then follow the wiki's howto ;-) ( http://wiki.amule.org )
