Issues installing offical linux packages on Pi

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to install BTsync on on a Raspberry Pi B+ (Jessie), I followed the instructions on the blog and added the offical linux packages, it installed OK and I ran:

sudo service btsync start

Then checking status seemed to suggest that everything was working OK, however I can't access the gui from another machine on the network to complete setup

I'm using: 192.168.1.100:8888/gui (I've confirmed the pi IP is correct with ifconfig).

It seems I either need to complete an extra step of set up somehow?

ecotec, you can edit config file:

/etc/btsync/config.json

There you need to replace 127.0.0.1:8888 by 0.0.0.0:8888, instead of 8888 you can specify another port.

//before place:
        "listen" : "127.0.0.1:8888"
//after replace:
        "listen" : "0.0.0.0:8888"

The current value is set for certain purpose: no one will access WebUI unless you enable it.
