Ok, I did some fiddling this morning first thing, I'll check Kovid's suggestion next. As of now, my notes this morning:
odd, calibre content server worked this morning,.
imac was off, after boot I started calibre with content server first thing.
asus ubuntu box had been suspended, I opened li, opened firefox - NOT CHROME - typed "http://167.20.92.106:8080/" and it worked.
now to try chrome
and it worked in chrome. confusing- I tried ALL of this yesterday… I had different IP ad's showing and typed them, carefully confirming they were correct but they did not work and I had IP showing as different from network settings on iMac and calibre's Connect/share menu.
I am not getting the error today because I have wireless device off - tried that yesterday also. Scratching my head raw. Reboots and starting fresh yesterday did nothing. Calibre wants to start the wireless device at
http://167.20.92.58:9090
I think this is the problem but how to fix??

On for Kovid's suggestion
