Unable to log onto Subsonic......

Postby brightside » Thu Dec 08, 2011 4:47 am

I'm trying to set up my PC so I can listen to music on my droid Razr. I've downloaded Subsonic and set it up according to the directions on the tutorial. I set up the PC to have a static IP address and I'm pretty sure I've set it up to portforward. I also went ahead and made a donation to Subsonic so I can get full use out of the program. Now, supposedly, I should be able to enter http://YOURNAME.subsonic.org, and i should be able to log in. Just to make sure, "YOURNAME" is the user name I log onto Subsonic with right? When I enter http://YOURNAME.subsonic.org, it takes me to the "Sorry, the trial period for the web address YOURNAME.subsonic.org has expired". I know I donated because I got a confirmation email from subsonic thanking me for my donation. From there, I clicked on the "Donate" link in the top right corner of the Subsonic web interface. I'm logged in when I open subsonic from the browser but can't open http://YOURNAME.subsonic.org without it telling me trial period has expired. Any help w/ this would be greatly appreciated.

Did you enter your email address and license key into subsonic?
Is the subsonic.org address you are using the same as shown in settings/network?
All the info you should need is in http://subsonic.org/pages/getting-started.jsp#3

Thanks for the responce. Yes, I did enter my email address and license key into subsonic. When I open Subsonic browser via little green headphone icon on the bottom left of my screen, it shows me as logged in and I can see my tunes there on the left side.
I think it may be a port forward issue. I found a guide online to set up my router(d-link dir-655). Whoever wrote the guide says "Subsonic requires you to forward the following ports: 80,4040".. In Subsonic, I have it set up to use port 8080. Should i configure the dir-655 to port forward only port 8080? as supposed to 80,4040?

Yes you forward the port that you have chosen. In your case 8080
Check with http://canyouseeme.org if the port has opened correctly.

I've checked my port with canyouseeme.org. It said Success: I can see your service on 173.xx.xxx.200 on port (8080)
Your ISP is not blocking port 8080. So that means I have everything setup correctly on my end right? I should be able to log onto Yourname.subsonic.org, but it still keeps telling me I need to donate...

I havent done this cuz i m too lazy to open new port's in my router ... but i will try to post the "step's" you need to follow:

  • Go to your Router and open the port you use for subsonic (default is 4040 you might use a different one idk)
  • Open your Subsonic and enter the license key and your e-mail.
  • Go to Setting's > Network and enable this option "Access your server over the Internet using an easy-to-remember address."
  • Within this option replace the YOURUSERNAME for "whateveryoulike" in the box and click save.

If you get the message "whateveryoulike.subsonic.org is registered, but could not connect to it. (ConnectTimeoutException)" it means you registered the entry however the port foward is not done correctly, nor check in this site http://portforward.com/ how to do a port forward or try the built in configuration tool in the same menu as stated above.
