Cannot connect to the Server - WalterZwo - 11-11-2022 17:12

Hello,

I just installed MinimServer on a fresh Qnap Silent NAS 251 with QTS 5 that is intended as a music server only for a Lumin T3, all hooked up via LAN. Everything worked fine, for 10 minutes. Then the Lumin app told me: server offline.

On the macbook - Safari says: Safari can not open the the page „192…..“ , because it can not connect to the server.
Chrome says: website is not available, „192….“ has declined the connection.

Because I am new to using a NAS I would appreciate any idea what I can do the get MinimServer working again.

Thanks in advance, Walter

There are many things that could cause this. The first step is to make sure that MinimServer is running. To do this, click Open from the MinimServer icon in App Center. If this doesn't show the MinimServer configuration page, try clicking Stop and then Start from the MinimServer icon in App Center.

simoncn, thank you for the quick reply. Your instructions have solved the problem. MinimServer is now running beautifully. I am a little ashamed of how simple the solution was, but hey, I am a newbie.
