Hi, I am still having problems connecting to the web interface, the remote works perfectly and I have been unable to determine why the web interface is not working.
What confuses me is that I can access the web interface without any problems from my phones browser, but yet when I use the same IP and port values in the app it does not connect. What could cause this behaviour?
I really want to get to the bottom of this so I can help with the testing and contributing on this project.
I also upgraded my xbox to the latest svn release from t3ch today to see if this helped matters without any change. Any help or suggestions to troubleshoot this problem anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.

All I did was shut down the webserver and restartet it, after that I had no problems.
Using 9.0.4.1 on Ubuntu.

Not an option on the xbox version I've tried disabling and re- enabling the webserver though
I should also add that earlier I mentioned my xbox was behind a wireless bridge, since then I have tried the following two network configurations with the same problems
- Wireless repeater bridge mode
- Access point only (literally xbox connected to a router and my phone connected wirelessly to the same router with nothing else to interfere)

Done, thx!

New release, to try the new music library integration. Mind you this is bleeding edge!
- Waffa - 2009-10-01
Music library looks awesome !!!!!

I've tried both the semi-stable and bleeding edge releases and I can only get the Remote Control to work.
Pressing the "try again to connect" button results in the error message "Unknown I/O Exception http://192.168.1.20:8080/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=GetSystemInfo(120)". Accessing the url on my computer or on my phone browser works fine.
I'm using the following:
Windows 7 x64
XBMC_for_Windows-9.04.1-repack2
HTC Hero

Had the same problem: Switching the webserver on and off fixed the problem for me.
If you have some more informations, there is an open issue already:

XBMC on windows uses default port 80.
Linux and android remote is set default to port 8080.
So change the port in remote or xbmc.

Interesting. Will try to nail that down a little further.

Hi again guys, I can confirm this is the error I am seeing on the bleeding edge version, I haven't had any luck with any past versions yet either.
Rather than XBMC for windows I have t3ch XBMC for XBOX and a G1. The port is different but its the same error can also confirm again everything works in the browser.
edit:
Don't know if this helps but here's the browser source from the command giving the error
Code:
<html>
<li>9.04.1 r20848</html>I'm hoping this might be the problem stopping me from connecting in past versions let me know if there's anything I can do to help troubleshoot.

All the people that have connection problems please state your rom version aswell because I had these issues with my magic aswell with one rom (can't recall which) but never ever had a trouble with cyongen, ion or factory.
Basically, if it works with the webbrowser there shouldn't be any reason not to work with the remote, all we do is a curl fetch.

I have seen this working 2 days ago with semi-stable...Great!
But for now:
I confirm this problem. I can contact the webserver by the brouwser but the bleeding edge 0.4 is giving me the same experience
as jakeblat.I'm using the following:
Ubuntu minimal 9.04 32bit
XBMC svn 28-9-2009
HTC magic firmware:1.5 Kernel 2.6.27-00393-gg 6607056
- jakeblat - 2009-10-02
I've managed to get 0.4 working by removing the password from the web server.
I'm using the following:
- Windows 7 Professional x64
- XBMC Rev23268-gl
- HTC Hero
- - Firmware version: 1.5
- - Kernel version: 2.6.27-8dd6deee
