2-FA update: cannot connect to the server

Beitrag von escrime » 9. Feb 2023, 13:53

The release notes for the Android app has been requesting that I edit the server entries by reconnecting using the button on the "Edit server" page. When I tap "Connect to Server and Save" I get "Error 404: Server not Found". I can find nothing in the help about this nor whether I now need to add 2FA to the server and how to do this. Hopefully someone can help!

2-FA is only required if you run a Synology or QNAP NAS.
If you see "404: Server not found" please verify that the server url is valid and can be reached.

Are you connecting to a local server in your LAN or from outside to your public ip address?

Thanks Martin. The server is on the local LAN.

Now fixed. The IP address had changed (thought I had fixed it..) but now I know 2FA not required, it is working :)

Thank you!
