Hub not showing up
Hub not showing up
Hi,
I've been using JoinFs for some time using direct connection with no issue but i've never used the hub option before. I seem to be having problems getting my hub to show in the hub list, I've setup port forwarding for the pc running Joinfs and even tried turning off windows firewall incase that was blocking it. Does anyone some idea's what maybe stopping it from showing up?
regards
Darren

Hi Darren,
is it showing up in the hub list of the hub client itself? And are you checking the hub list on a PC on a different network? It will take several minutes for a hub to show up in everyone's list.

Hi Peter,
Yes its showing up in the client on the host pc, I've had a couple of people say they've tried to finding it last night but couldn't see it on the list. I have tried to find it with another pc on the same network but having read other posts i understand it may not show up if on the same network.

Re: Hub not showing up
Could you send me a PM with the IP address and I'll check it out?

Re: Hub not showing up
As an off chance this might help the OP or someone else I have found a work around for when this happens to me.
My IP is dynamic. Which means if the electricity goes out, or the cat unplugs the router, when it reconnects my IP has changed.
Since I have "Enable Hub Mode" checked it does not automatically update to my new IP external address. Manually changing it to the new address doesn't seem to let it show in the hub list.
To fix this you need for JoinFS to auto fill the address bar.
1. Uncheck "Enable Hub Mode"
2. Delete the contents of the address field.
3. On the main form of JoinFS disconnect from the network. (Network button status red)
4. Restart JoinFS and check the "Enable Hub Mode"
This should populate the address field with the proper IP address and make you visible to the network.

Re: Hub not showing up
1.2.8 is completely incompatible with previous versions so you won't see any hubs still on 1.2.7.
As well as that, I've just discovered two separate problems with the hub propagation, which I'm just fixing. I expect there will be a new test version tomorrow with those issues fixed.

Re: Hub not showing up
I have enabled hub mode under name weflyfsx-va.com but it's not showing in the list of hubs for members but yet they can connect to it by bookmark what am I doing wrong we are using latest test version
Re: Hub not showing up
You may need to wait several minutes for it to fully propagate.vbegin7 wrote:I have enabled hub mode under name weflyfsx-va.com but it's not showing in the list of hubs for members but yet they can connect to it by bookmark what am I doing wrong we are using latest test version
You'll definitely need to enable port forwarding correctly on your router for it to work. Have you done that already? Has to be UDP-only to the machine that your hub is running on.

Re: Hub not showing up
All the ports are open and the node ran on hub for a week and didn't ever show in the list
Re: Hub not showing up
All the ports are open? But how does your router know where to send data on the JoinFS port?
You need to configure your router as follows, assuming port 6112:
Port forward 6112, UDP only, to 192.168.0.x (the IP address of your JoinFS client)
That should work.

Re: Hub not showing up
When I said all the ports that's what I meant I have 6112 UDP open to that computer connections are fine without the port no one would connect at all with port they connect it just doesn't show in hubs that my only problem
Re: Hub not showing up
In the JoinFS settings, do you have your public IP address in the hub 'Address' option? It should match the one in the 'Me' box.
Peter
Peter
Re: Hub not showing up
It's the same as the one in the me box
Re: Hub not showing up
Does your 'Me' address end in 194?
Peter

Re: Hub not showing up
Oh well, it's not that one then.
On the main JoinFS window, is the top right button disabled with the word 'Hub' in it?
