Ipfs-webui: 4.5-dev from git webgui connection shows zero

Created on 11 Nov 2016 · 8Comments · Source: ipfs/ipfs-webui

ipfs swarm peers shows over a hundred connections. None are shown on the webgui. Worked fine with 4.4. This is with an up to date arch install on 4.8.6 with chrome and also verified on firefox.

ipfs was built from git ( go-ipfs-git-0.4.5dev.r333.g8d6ac7a-1-x86_64.pkg.tar ) where g8d6ac7a refers to the commit.

What else will help?

Thanks

Are there any errors in the console/devtools?

No. Console looks normal.

It is probably because peers API was changed. See https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs-api/issues/413

Ok, same problem!
Have I to update the webui seperatly or is it enougth to use ipfs-update?

@Kuurusch the webui needs to be fixed in this repo, and then it will be added to the next release of go-ipfs.

I have still the same problem. Updated to version 0.4.6-rc1 and it's still the old version of the web ui. Or at least it looks so. No peers in web ui, but in the console I have plenty.
Any idea, how to debug this situation? Where is actually the webui installed? Could it be, that the install path has changed and it points still to the old version in the old path, or something like that?

I'm working with OSX

webgui connection shows zero, but DAG also does not display information

the problem occurs if you use local ip or external ip or domain
