Hi everybody,

Just installed 9.11 v10

I don't see the XBMC interface when I connect via http. I see this page:

It works!

This is the default web page for this server.

The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

Can anyone help me out? I pretty sure I probably either need to move a directory somewhere or install something...?

Thanks,

Herb

Hmm... Odd. I enabled it with System->Network->Services->"Allow control of XBMC via HTTP" and I get a webpage that looks like the old PMIII skin when I go to: http://addy.of.my.XBMC:8080.

Read the wiki for troubleshooting on enabling the web server. Note about the port - the web server runs port 80 so you shouldn't need :8080 after the IP.

Search the internet or the forums, you can find all sorts of pages for the server that you can dump in the Web folder that do some neat stuff with XBMC. Here are a few below,

I'm not sure if the OP still cares, but for people coming in from google or the search function:

I had the same issue, but when I added :8080 to the end of my XBMC's IP it worked.

So in the browser URL bar I put 192.168.0.199:8080

Looks like I have the same problem here.

When connecting to http://192.168.2.103:8080/ i get the It works page.
http://192.168.2.103 and thus default port 80 -> server denies connection.

I installed XBMC in a Virtual Box vm for test purpose on Ubuntu 9.10 using the instructions from the wiki.

Just to make sure I don't have conflicting tomcat versions I

Code:

aptitude purge tomcat
aptitude purge xbmc xbmc-standalone

restart

Code:

aptitude install xbmc xbmc-standalone

restart

Still same behaviour. It works page only. Can anybody give me advice how to get access to the web frontend?
