Bizarre: Can't connect to Library Server on LAN from Linux client

(1/3) > >>

BryanC:
Today out of the blue I haven't been able to connect to my MC library server, but it only affects a single computer on my LAN. Here's the stranger part, first of all I can see the server at the port in my web browser. Secondly I removed ~/.jriver to see if my installation had become corrupted, and tried reconnecting the my server, it immediately asked for my credentials (indicating the server was reachable) but then gave me an "There was a problem loading the library 'HTPC'". I can reach the server just fine from other remote computers so obviously this is limited to only this installation. I can also reach other services on the same computer running the library server no problem from the affected machine.

Log sent.

I'm seeing the same issue with build .85.  To test if it's the exact same issue, try rolling back to .83 or disabling authentication; if we're seeing the same thing, either one of those should "fix" it.  Check out the build thread for more discussion.

Yup, rolling back to 21.0.83 fixed it.

I'll link this in the build thread for visibility. Thanks for reproing.

bob:
Can you try this build?
Added a bit of debugging that you'll see from the command line as well.
