Amahi Forums

Hi,

I was was recently trying to get an app called PlexConnect to work on my Amahi server. PlexConnect is an app that runs on the server that will serve up Plex content to an Apple TV without jailbreaking it by intercepting requests from the Trailers app on the Apple TV and redirecting them to PlexConnect so it can serve up a client. More info here:

In order to get it working correctly, I had to disable the DNS server on the Amahi (which I didn't really care about) and change the web server port from 80 to something else (I chose 78). I don't use it for anything. I did that by editing /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and changing the Listen port to 78.

Of course, when I did that, I no longer get the dashboard:

I thought I could just go to <ip>:78 to get the dashboard, but when I do that, I get the Apache page instead of the dashboard:

What else do I have to do to get the dashboard to show up at <ip>:78?

Thanks!

You may have to edit a few .conf files and it will most likely make all other port 80 apps have to be reached via port 78.

You can follow the tutorial in the wiki for "Secure HDA Access" and just edit the files that it shows for port 443, making them port possibly. I would not recommend this, but it may show the files that would need changing.

Not sure if this will work as it's a non standard setup. Would be easier to change the port for PlexConnect to work on a different port. You are at risk for breaking the HDA when you change the default port for the dashboard.
