MinimServer Errors

When I went to look at the status of MinimServer via MinimWatch on my computer I noticed it was not running. I exited it and went into Applications and clicked to restart and this time I got the red flag. I looked at properties and noticed that MinimServer was pointing to the incorrect music folder. I have no idea why but I deleted that and found that I could not add another. I went to the Synology desktop and clicked on the MinimServer icon there and this is the error I received:

"Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 10.0.1.7:9790."

Everything else is running fine and then I checked packages and noticed that 0.8.1 24 was available, which i thought I already had. In any case I did the update but the problem persists. Any thoughts?

It sounds like either MinimServer isn't running or the IP address or port number is wrong.

If you were able to do the update (presumably using MinimWatch on another computer), this would mean that MinimServer is running. Do you still see a red minim icon in MinimWatch? If so, this means that MinimServer is running.

Have you used MinimWatch to change the http.port value from 9790 to something else? This could explain why you aren't able to access the MinimServer status page from the Synology desktop. Please check the http.port value on the System tab of the MinimWatch Properties dialog.

If the http.port value is 9790, there might be a problem with the IP address 10.0.1.7. You can verify this by using the "ping" command from the computer that is running MinimWatch.
