Dear Maxim and all: After trying to understand and find solutions to my last issues with the router, I have come to the conclusion that this is far out of my league and I might run the risk of damaging my work trying to fix something for which I don't have enough knowledge, least expertise.
Before leaving I'd like to sincerely and warmly thank all those who have tried to help me understand how OM works and what it requires with no other interest in mind, just sharing knowledge, but specially I'd like to thank Maxim Maximus "The Genius", despite your last suggestion was the door to my downfall (reality can be tough and kick you hard, but it's reality), I believe your work here is really commendable, answering hundreds of emails very quickly and to the point (those days I was away working, the amount of emails that accumulated in my inbox were a true burden to read through in case something of value to my particular needs could be useful - i just can´t imagine having to find solutions and answer each one to pick up lost time). I don't use emoticons so: clap, clap, clap. Tharrrk, in case you read this, I tried to answer your personal emails but they bounced back. With my Best Regards to all, (I'll wait for a week Maxim, in case anyone wants to answer this and then I'll ask you to take me off the list, thanks).

Tomorrow I'll try connecting to my son's computer in another venue. http://www.nirsoft.net/show_ my_ip_address.php whatismyipaddress.com https://www.iplocation.net/ find-ip-address https://www.whatismyip.com And my ISP speed tester all had the same IP, giving no connection. IPv4 gave a different IP starting with 192..... so, http://192......IP:5080/ openmeetings opens the login page in my laptop and takes the visitor to his dashboard. Changing application.base.url to http://192......IP:5080/ openmeetings/ sent a link which takes my visitor directly to the room. Maximus Maxim: As my IP changes each day, or about, do I have to check IPv4, and use it for invitations at each change? What if I send the link to enter some days before the meeting and the IP/ IPv4 is different the day of the meeting? Or does this mean I should tweak something else so IP is the same as IPv4? I don't know what time it is where you are, but I'm going to sleep now. And I won't need Cate Blanchet to sleep like a log. A million thanks.

Chrome is permanently getting stuck, goes on and on and gets nowhere. My antivirus says my startup needs a clean up, too much Sh** moving about in the background and if a pay so much they'll clean it up. I have a Windows XP Laptop, 2.0 GHz, 1.87 GB RAM, 64x2 mobile, where Word opens immediately, my antivirus has never told me he needs to clean up anything and I don't know if it has any other of the issues because I don't use it connected to the Internet except for very specific uses because Microsoft doesn't support it anymore (and no one else for that case). Maybe I'll be throwing this Microsoft 10th bum out of the Window's. Maybe it's this Windows the cause I can't connect due to some configuration intruding where it shouldn't. I have done the tests following your questions. This is what I've got. I'd love to know if anyone using Windows 10 has been able to get Openmeetings running past this point. Case 1) a) I changed port 5080 for port 80 in: \conf\red5.properties and \webapps\openmeetings\public\ config.xml b) I double clicked on red5.bat to run red5. c) I put: were you able to open http://localhost:80/ openmeetings from same machine? > YES, I get into the dashboard http://ext_ip:80/openmeetings from same machine? > NO, Access Error: 404 -- Not Found http://ext_ip:80/openmeetings from external machine? > NO, Access Error: 404 -- Not Found Case 2) In Windows 10: Control Panel (Panel de Control) > Windows Firewall (Firewall de Windows) > Advanced Settings (Configuración Avanzada) > Entry Rules (Reglas de Entrada) Port 80 seems to be open (tell me if you want to see the Exported file with Entry Rules – I don’t understand all the details but port 80 is there). I also created new rules for ports: TCP 5080, UDP 5080, TCP 1935, TCP 8443, TCP 8088, TCP 8081 allowing connection from Domain, Private and Public. Having all this supposedly open (and port 5080 in: \conf\red5.properties and \webapps\openmeetings\public\ config.xml), I have disabled Windows Firewall (Private and Public): I run red5 and once activated I open Chrome and paste the links: were you able to open http://localhost:5080/ openmeetings from same machine? > YES, I get into the dashboard http://ext_ip:5080/ openmeetings from same machine? > NO, ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT (in Chrome), INET_E_RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND (in IE) http://ext_ip:5080/ openmeetings from external machine? > NO, ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT I disable my antivirus: In the three cases I get the same responses. ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --- Details of Case 1 procedure: http://localhost:80/ openmeetings > transforms to http://localhost/openmeetings in the browser > takes to OM’s login page I enter > http://localhost/openmeetings/ #user/dashboard I go to > Administration > Configuration Where I have the following data (left there from yesterday – my current IP is the same one) application.base.url http://181.myIP:5080/ openmeetings/ In another Chrome window I enter: http://181.myIP/openmeetings/ > Access Error: 404 -- Not Found http://181.myIP:80/ openmeetings/ > Access Error: 404 -- Not Found http://181.myIP:5080/ openmeetings/ > ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT I go to > Administration > Configuration I change: application.base.url http://181.myIP:5080/ openmeetings/ for application.base.url http://181.myIP:80/ openmeetings/ I save, log out, close Chrome window, close red5 window.

If I open an IE window and paste: http://localhost:80/ openmeetings > it takes me to the login page. I created a user and logged in with this username and password. It took me to the admin space, but with the name of the user. Now I’m logged-in in Chrome and IE with two different users. If I log-out with user 2, user 1 is still logged-in with Chrome. In my Laptop (external machine?) connected to the router with a cable: I open Chrome and paste: http://181.myIP:80/ openmeetings > Access Error: 404 -- Not Found ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------- Thanks for your interest in my backache, Richard ------------------------------ -------------- On Wed, 9/8/17, Maxim Solodovnik <solomax...@gmail.com> wrote: Subject: Re: help configuration smtp server To: "Openmeetings user-list" <user@openmeetings.apache.org> , "Richard Pérez" <traductorchi...@yahoo.co.uk> Date: Wednesday, 9 August, 2017, 3:36 I don't have windows box right now, maybe someone else can help Will try to provide some vectors of investigation:0) please test one feature only so instead of set everything up, send email, check link in the email you need to try to access om in browser using your external_ip/port SMTP seems to work for you as expected So right now it is firewall problem so1) you have changed port to be 80 in red5.properties have you restarted OM does it started without errors? were you able to open http://localhost:80/ openmeetings from same machine? were you able to open http://ext_ip:80/openmeetings from same machine? were you able to open http://ext_ip:80/openmeetings from external machine? 2) you have opened port on Windows FW/Disabled FW were you able to open http://localhost:5080/ openmeetings from same machine? were you able to open http://ext_ip:5080/ openmeetings from same machine? were you able to open http://ext_ip:5080/ openmeetings from external machine? problems like this should be solved step by step ....

In “\conf\red5.properties” I had: # HTTP http.host=0.0.0.0 http.port=5080 https.port=5443 I only changed “5080”, I did not edit the others. 3) I created new ports, for: TCP 5080, UDP 5080, TCP 1935, TCP 8443, TCP 8088, TCP 8081 Allowing connection from Domain, Private and Public. Control Panel (Panel de Control) > Windows Firewall (Firewall de Windows) > Advanced Settings (Configuración Avanzada) > Entry Rules (Reglas de Entrada) > New Rule (Nueva Regla) This did not work. 4) Angry now, I disabled the Windows Firewall altogether. I also disabled my Antivirus completely. I restarted my Router. I restarted my computer. I entered my new IP into OpenMeetings settings and restarted red5 and OpenMeetings. Checked my Gmail was allowing non secure Apps. Sent an invitation without password to my Laptop connected to the router by cable (it should have the same IP). This didn’t work. My laptop can’t enter the room. If this didn’t work, can’t one infer that my computer is not firewalling entry? Does this mean that the problem either is in the Router (or my Internet service provider) or something else not related to my computer? I’d much appreciate if anyone can tell me what else I can do to find the problem. Thanks. Richard -- WBR Maxim aka solomax -- WBR Maxim aka solomax -- WBR Maxim aka solomax
