Issues and questions with running calibre on Ubuntu 18
Been going through some tutorials, but having issues still.

Want to run calibre and/or server on a Ubuntu server and be able to access from local as well as eventually, remotely. For now, I cannot get it to load up the page for the menu item. Instead, when I run
Code:
calibre-server --port 18080 /raid/media/reading/
and then this (
Code:
calibre server listening on 0.0.0.0:18080
OPDS feeds advertised via BonJour at: 192.168.1.26 port: 18080
).

On another machine, I only get a loading page.

My ufw on Linux allows the port, so not sure where going wrong.

Thoughts please?

Try using in the address bar of your browser:

Code:
192.168.1.26 port: 18080/mobile
let us know the result.

What browser are you using?

Try using:

Code:
192.168.1.26 port:18080/mobile
If that works then

Code:
192.168.1.26 port: 18080/
The next thing to try will be to change the port, I use 8095 for my server running Mint 19, with Firefox 64.

To verify calibre server is operating on your server open a terminal and use:
Code:
 sudo netstat -lntup
Will give you this:

You can see that my calibre is on port 8095 and is listening.

Alright, maybe something is messed up on install. None of this works for me. I mean, I can see it running when I run
Code:
sudo netstat -lntup
.

Is there any means for me to figure if I have this setup and running correctly and whatnot? I can access other services on my server, so may be something specific to this that is somehow messed up.

Additionally, what I see on any machine trying to access my Calibre is this:



I have used several tutorials to get this setup correctly, and all seems good. So not sure why having this problem.
