I have just completed building the picar-x and am trying to connect to it using a wifi connection. I can ssh into it but when trying to connect with the ezblock studio web page it continuously fails. I have tried connecting using both the raspberry pi ip address and the iphone app without success.
According to documentation this se3tup is supposed to work. Is there a port that should be added when using the ip address to connect?
This is a screenshot of the ezblock status from systemctl
The connection failure you are experiencing is likely due to a recent change in Google Chrome that blocks local network access by default.
Solution – Use a different browser:
Please try using Firefox instead of Chrome. Firefox should connect to the EzBlock webpage without any extra configuration.
Alternative solution – Modify Chrome settings:
If you prefer to continue using Chrome, you can manually disable the local network access check:
In Chrome, type the following address into the address bar:
chrome://flags/#local-network-access-check
Find the “Local Network Access Checks” option and set it to Disabled.Restart Chrome (close and reopen the browser).Open the EzBlock webpage again:
After making this change, the connection should work.Let me know if you still encounter issues.
