Client Software "Unable to Connect to Remote Server"

Get Help

All,

I’ve installed Docker CE and XiboCMS 1.8 on a Windows 10 Professional x64 machine.

I am able to reach the CMS via localhost and it seems to be working fine.

I installed the 1.8 player on a Windows 10 client on the same network. I put in the IP address for the CMS + the key, and receive nothing but “Unable to connect to remote server”. Is there a step I’ve missed for IP configuration? Did I miss something from the Xibo CMS/Docker install guide?

Check the firewall settings on your server. I expect you’ll need to allow inbound connections on port 80/433/9505

That did it, Alex. Is it possible that I missed that bit in the documentation? If not, could a note be added?

Thanks for your help.

I’ve added a note of that here:
