"error: Connection refused"

[HorstBaerbel]

I installed Snapdroid on an older Phone with Android 7.1.2. My Snapserver seems to be set up ok and starts. Snapdroid finds the server and tries to connect, but always displays the above message. What am I doing wrong?

I have to confirm this issue:

• LineageOS 19 / android 12
• from fdroid, no GAAPS / Playstore
• Sony H3213
• OpenWRT managed Wifi with domain-suffix

It gets an proper identification of my server via autodiscovery ("server.lan") but refuses to connect "error: Connection refused". Same if I enter IP manually or try the Webinterface. Other LAN clients work well 🤔

For my setup I noticed, that snapdroid client tries to connect to the IPv6 address instead of the IPv4 address. I guess my snapserver is configured for IPv4 only, but still wondering why the original snapclient discovery uses IPv4 without problems.

So my fix was to enter the IPv4 IP manually and snapdroid is working fine 👍
