1.6 console

ok, looked at that a bit more closely.
It seems the new version gets registered, but the old one remains too.
For some reason, on launch the older launch code gets invoked instead of the newer one

I did try to unregister the app by issuing:

  Code:

`find /System/Library/Frameworks -name lsregister` -u /Applications/Serviio-Console.app

...and voilà!
The app is then launched correctly from the Finder.
Indeed the registration database removed the reference to the old version.

You may want to look further into that direction: the magical command to include in install script may not be too far from that one!

(BTW not assuming the app sits in /Application may be a good thing, as Mac users may have tendency of moving things around. another find command may help get the proper path for the app)

great, thanks

Happy if it can help.
Now, with the console available as a web page, I'm wondering if it wouldn't be simpler have the console app just being a compiled AppleScript with that one statement:

  Code:

open location "http://localhost:23423/console"

opening the default system's web browser on the console page...
Attaching as a sample.

Was also thinking about sth similar for a start/stop Server toggle.

I wanted to do something like this originally, didn't think it was easily possible

See... MacOS is not that weird!

While at it, I made an improved one that I attach below.
Feel free to reuse/modify/improve/dump, etc...
I borrowed the icon, hope it is ok.

Best.


Description:
This tiny application toggles Serviio server daemon ON/OFF, and if ON, launches the web console in System’s default browser.
Enjoy!



[EDIT] I removed the app. Please refer to this thread for a more complete solution.

there's a way to put password to access the web console?

No, but you can close port 23423 in your firewall so no one from outside your PC can access it.

It's closed, I just wanna open this port to access from outside.

Anyway, thanks for the update. This web console is so great.

You can use a apache web server to expose it with access control/password authentication

Great answer! And the mediabrowser function is closed too.
How can I deactivate the Web console? That is a huge security risk. Everyone can use my Web console.
The possibility to set a password for the Web console would be the best.

MediaBrowser uses 23424...

Do you know how this could be done in IIS?
How to password protect and how to proxy "access to the 1.6 console" with URL rewrite in IIS?
