Unable to connect to WebUI

[Snowfall_Gamer]

I have set up MineOs using a Raspberry Pi 4 and Ubuntu. Then when I try connecting to the WebUI I get an error (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED), anyone know how to fix this?

anyone know how to fix this?

First things first: do we know the webui is even up?

Take a look at this megathread and see if we can identify this is the case:

Megathread for MineOS webui issues

Webui service How do I know the webui is running? root@mineos games/minecraft# netstat -tnl | grep 8443 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8443 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN Check for tcp, 0.0.0.0:8443. This indicates it’ll work on IPv4 and is listening on all interfaces on the right port. How else can I check? root@mineos ~# ps -aux | grep node root 989 1.9 4.7 1302200 96852 ? Sl 17:58 0:13 /usr/bin/node webui.js root 1605 0.0 0.0 11128 976 pts/0 S+ 18…

Are logs being created? /var/log/mineos.log

Let’s identify the issue at hand, and we can fix it presently.

I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong but when I entered /var/log/mineos.log I got this:

root@ubuntu:~# /var/log/mineos.log
-bash: /var/log/mineos.log: No such file or directory

Did you do any of the other things to check if the webui is even running?

If that file doesn’t exist, the webui is likely not running, which means some steps in the installation did not complete correctly OR the webui package dependencies did not compile correctly.

cd /usr/games/minecraft
chmod +x reset_webui.js
./reset_webui.js

cd /usr/games/minecraft chmod +x reset_webui.js ./reset_webui.js

Its saying that there is No such file directory and the other things to check either says Command not found or No such file directory.

root@ubuntu:/usr/games/minecraft# chmod +x reset_webui.js
chmod: cannot access ‘reset_webui.js’: No such file or directory
root@ubuntu:/usr/games/minecraft# ./reset_webui.js
-bash: ./reset_webui.js: No such file or directory

I did make a mistake, the file is called reset_webui.sh.

[Snowfall_Gamer]

Its saying command not found

root@ubuntu:~# cd /usr/games/minecraft
root@ubuntu:/usr/games/minecraft# chmod +x reset_webui.sh
root@ubuntu:/usr/games/minecraft# ./reset_webui.sh

npm: command not found

npm is the package manager for NodeJS. It’s part of the installation instructions, but it does not appear that your system has that binary.

Check it as root simply with npm. If you get command not found, you’ll need to explore a way to install the Node Package Manager to your system (one tied to the installation of NodeJS you’re using).
