webui: invalid request

[Astara]

I'm trying to get the webui to work. I'm connecting to the port, but I'm only getting back a response of "invalid request".

I've tried http://127.0.0.0.1:8080/gui

with user:pass as well

I tried downloading a new copy of the webui.zip and placing it in my appdir/roaming/utorrent/webui.zip (saved the old copy as webui-000.zip). Found another copy on another website -- all give same message 'invalid request'

The .zip is 'valid', I can unpack it and it has htm and javascript files in it.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for any suggestions -- I really have no idea what I am doing -- never used this before.

What webui port settings have you tried?

[Astara]

My 'incoming torrent' port (I have random turned 'off' and set it to a fixed value up in the 55000 block -- program said it would put server on same port as request port?) Also set up an explicit backup port 8080 as they had in example. I get the same result with those two ports. Other ports get worse errors...:-)

Are you using a whitelist? If so, you're going to have to put yourself on that whitelist, or just not use the whitelist. If ipfilter.dat blocks your IP, it may also be an issue.

I setup a white list by ipaddr:

127.0.0.1, 192.168.3.*

(I'm connecting over 127.0.0,1).

...or does it take the 192.168.3./24 syntax?

It uses CIDR, yes.
