contentserver works only with mobile folder

hbol · 08-04-2020, 07:53 AM

I am running the contentserver in my home network.
Till last week it was showing everything fine.
http://192.168.1.200:8080

but since a week or so when i start the weblink on my phone it shows everything fine. When I refresh the page it stays blank.
When i go to http://192.168.1.200:8080/mobile it gives me the result again.

When I restart the contentserver on my ubuntu server I can see the content just once on my phone. Then I need to switch to the /mobile version.

On my laptop I can look at the http://192.168.1.200:8080 page s much as I want.

What can be the problem?

I checked it with chrome and firefox on my phone. But the results are just the same.

It works on my phone. I recommend that you clear Firefox Cache on your phone.

I forgot to mention that i allready did that.
Cleared the cache from both browsers.

Also tried it in private mode.

Look for errors in the server logs and the browser developer tools console.

I just checked de /var/log, but nothing is logged in the syslog.

Developer tools are not available on android browser. At least as far as I know.

You get the server logs from Preferences->Sharing over the net and if you are running the standalone server then use --log. And you can coonect your mobile browser to developer tools in chrome on your computer

Thanks a lot!!! I did not know about that "show server logs" option.
I now see that I have a firewall issue.

I will dig into that.

Disabling firewall solved it. Normal view and mobile view does work now.

So I am going to look into my firewall settings to refine that.

Thanks for the advice!
