iOS Question Bridge cannot connect to server (local)

[ajk]

I had to change the IP address manually (to 192.168.1.125 - fixed address delivered by router - if I do not use key.txt then local builder get address) because local builder wanted to use 192.254.95.254. But now I B4i bridge say: Cannot connect to 192.168.1.125.

B4i bridge works correctly with hosted service. So I think problem is somewhere in my Mac. How to fix it?

Can you access this 'test' link from the PC and from the device (https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/local-mac-builder-installation.46402/) ?

 

[ajk]

yes. From Mac, PC, and phone

 

[Erel]

Kill the Mac builder and start it again. Check the ip addresses printed when the builder start. Are they correct?

If I leave key.txt with 192.168.1.125 file with manually corrected address then goes like in first post = "Cannot connect to 192.168.1.125" message on phone

If I remove key.txt then I receive:

[azzam223]

are you use vmware program?
if that is then the problem is from it you must change the network to option that use unique ip address or diconnect it then after minute connect it. because the problem is from vmware network

 

[Erel]

If I leave key.txt with 192.168.1.125 file with manually corrected address then goes like in first post = "Cannot connect to 192.168.1.125" message on phone

Is the printed IP address correct in that case?

 

[azzam223]

because local builder wanted to use 192.254.95.254

Erel the vmware using this ip always when there is no real connection this problem happens to me some times

when I disconnect the vmware network and after one minute connect it again the problem solved

 

[ajk]

Is the printed IP address correct in that case?

Yes it is correct address

the vmware using this ip always

I'm not using vmware - but I have AnyDesk installed on Mac. I have tried all combinations (with AnyDesk (with connetsion & without) with AnyDesk removed) with same result described above. But I thin it may be the case because after removing and reinstalling AndDesk adress used by Local Mac Builder changed to 169.254.41.18.

 

[azzam223]

check mac network from setting maybe not connect

 

[Erel]

1. Can you post the server logs with the manual key?
2. Are you able to run the app on the simulator?
3. What happens when you try to build B4i-Bridge?

2) Simulator opens correctly & trying to run program
-in simulator message: ip address 192.168.1.125, waiting for IDE to connect...
-I have to accept incoming network connections
-black screen


3)
a)If I try to generate B4i-Brigde with Simulator selected then: process can not access "...path\Objects.temp.dat " message as a result
b) If I generate B4i-Bridge with Device selected then generates correctly. I can open address suggested in dialog "Open mobile Safari and navigate to...". Then when I click on Install App cirlce - nothing happens /program do not install - so currently I'm without B4I Bridge ;(
PS I have installed B4i Bridge using remote Builder service
PS' Remotely build B4i-Brigde can not connect to local Mac Builder? but I can not install local build of B4i Bridge.

 

[ajk]

OK FIXED

Reason: mac created inner IP for phone USB connection => this address was intercepted by B4i MacBuilder
Hot to fix: open network preferences, turn OFF USB connection

Thank you very much for help for all !!
