Trying (and failing) to run this off my personal domain, using statically set IPs and such. Running into some problems though. It seems like the software is unable to pull information, despite the fact that I've coded in the right IPs and that if I go to things myself it works. For example, I get this error under both Recent TV and XBMC Library:

Quote: XBMC's JSON API did not respond.

Check your configuration (config.php) and that the JSON service variable is configured correctly and that the Service is running.

{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "VideoLibrary.GetRecentlyAddedEpisodes", "params" : { "start" : 0 , "end" : 15 , "fields": [ "genre", "director", "trailer", "tagline", "plot", "plotoutline", "title", "originaltitle", "lastplayed", "showtitle", "firstaired", "duration", "season", "episode", "runtime", "year", "playcount", "rating", "writer", "studio", "mpaa", "premiered", "album" ] }, "id" : 1 }

Now, if I click the Service link, it works just fine, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I'd really like to run this off my webserver, since I don't have an always-on machine besides my HTPC, and I'd rather not install a webserver onto it. Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this error?

My other problem is that absolutely nothing appears under SABnzbd or Coming Episodes. I've taken a screenshot so you can see what I'm talking about. You can see it here: http://imgs.nickkuras.com/mfp.png

If I can't run this off my domain for some reason, that's fine, though I'd much prefer to. I can't really see why it wouldn't work though. Anyone have any ideas?

thats great to hear _zoggy_, when do you think those changes will be merged to master branch?

As it seems there are many issues with mediafrontpage.

I request that further bug requests be posted to my repo on github, so I can actually track and manage the bugs. I cant possibly check the back history here and check out all the threads.

My links to SickBeard, CouchPotato etc work at home behind the router, but not remotley.

My htpc is funnily enough called htpc. So in the MediaFrontPage config I have forwarded the pages to http://htpc:8080/ etc which works fine at home but not at work.

What is the best way of setting this up? Had a quick look at apache virtual directories, but it didn't seem to be the right thing. Really I guess I'd want the links to be http://localhost/sickbeard but have it so that the web interface is looking at the localhost it's residing on, not my works localhost as I expect it is doing now...

Thanks for any hints/tips/help

You would have to forward the ports on your router from your external IP to your internal IP (i.e. (external)24.2.XXX.XXX to (internal)192.168.1.105). Then you would have change all the IPs in your config to be your external IP.

For those who are using mediafrontpage, where have you installed it?

Are you running on the same machine as the other applications you have running, torrents, sab, etc. Are have you opted to install it on either a shared host or else and then peek into the services that are running?

I have it installed on the same box that I have SAB, utorrent and Sickbeard installed on.

Did this and when I'm away from my network it works. Inside the network though it doesn't like it (which is what I thought might happen).
What other ways can I get this setup so that I can view the other interfaces both inside my network and out of it?

Setting it to your external IP shouldn't stop it working on your internal network. Can you access the pages directly if you put in your WAN (external) IP?
