Thank you Helen! I figured out what the issue was... for some reason the portion read 127.0.0.1:8888 Once I changed it to 0.0.0.0 and rebooted it let me connect. Cheers!

Thanks for the response Helen! Here is what ps aux returns: systemd+ 590 0.0 0.0 100324 1172 ? Ssl Apr23 0:00 /lib/systemd/systemd-timesyncd btsync 908 0.0 0.0 430324 1920 ? Ssl Apr23 2:16 /usr/bin/btsync --config /etc/btsync/config.json and I verified that I am using the full address as posted (with the ip changed to the ip of my server), keeping the http, etc. is there something else I need to install for the webgui? I just used the default settings when installing from your repository... thoughts on next steps? Thanks again!

Hi BTSync community! The subject explains the issue, let me give some background: sudo systemctl status btsync yields active (running) so this seems to indicate that it is running properly. I previously had set it up with the unofficial repository, but since that is way out of date, at one point in the past I had installed it manually. I could always access the webgui this way. Upon finding out there was the official repository, I installed the official repository on my 14.04 ubuntu server and it synced fine, but I could not access the webgui... I decided I would wait to try again after a fresh install of the now released 16.04 (thought maybe the issue was not uninstalling previous repository properly). I still am seeing the same issue with regards to accessing the webgui. it returns: "site can't be reached" and lower "site refused to connect" in chrome when trying to access 8888. I am not a linux power user by any means, but am generally able to work my way around the terminal reasonably well... point is, don't assume something obvious that should be done has already been done... It may not be obvious to me! Is there something else I have to do to get the webgui working when using the official repository? What troubleshooting should I do next? Thanks for the help in advance!
