I need help setting up octoprint. I have everhthing setup on the raspberry pi but i am unable to connect to it using octopi.local or the ip address. I can see that its connected to my router and i can connect to it using puTTY but not on the browser. Any ideas?
It sounds like you need to set up Bonjour. Check out this video https://youtu.be/RQ3ufPo95lg
@Joe_Walters He tried using the ip directly, so I think its a communication/firewall issue versus the naming service.
I had the same issue until I setup Bonjour and then it has worked since.
As @PrintinAddiction said, you are able to connect to the device over ssh so setting up Bonjour shouldn’t help you. You are already able to access the device.
Now you need to determine why you can’t access the web service on port 80. Try using telnet to connect to port 80 of your opctpi. You should see a connection message if successful. If not, check that the service is started and that there is no firewall.
did you follow Tom’s guide? Used his without error on a number of different pi’s and instances.
I finally got it working. Not sure where the issue was because i did the same thing several times till it magically worked lol (might have been an error editing the text file) but now im having a hard time with port forwarding. Idk what the heck im doing
