gyrene2083 1 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Good Morning All, So, I just need confirmation of something dumb that I did, and possibly a fix after you all stop laughing at me. I have a Synology DS916+ and I installed Emby. in the Advanced -> Hosting section, I installed my friends external IP, and now when I log in to Emby X.X.X.X:8920 I get a forbidden error message now.. Was I supposed to add my IP address there too? If so, now that I can't log into it how can I fix it? Secondary issue, I know the default port is 8096, but changed it to 8920, but every time I open Emby from Synology, it fails and I have to change the port. Is there .cfg file I need to change to reflect the port change? If so how would I get to that one, on Synology? Any, help would be greatly appreciated.

Luke 37008 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I think honestly at this point you may as well just uninstall then reinstall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before I go crazy uninstalling, would going to my friends house with that IP, help me? Hi, what were you trying to accomplish here? I misunderstood and thought that if I put my friends IP that it would create a more secure connection, instead I believe since I put his IP address and left mine out, that I locked myself out of the server, because when I try to log in, I get a Forbidden Error Page now.

Luke 37008 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Try and see if you can access using the internal network address. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gyrene2083 1 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 Try and see if you can access using the internal network address. Below is what I get with the internal address...I suppose I am going to have to go to my friends house login to synology from his house and see if I can get into Emby from there. Unless, there is another way, I'm trying to avoid reinstallation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37008 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Ok, without a full understanding of everything that you've done I would still suggest a fresh start at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8242 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) And what happens if you use localip:8096? Edited September 10, 2018 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gyrene2083 1 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 Thank you for the help. I changed all the ports before i stupidly put my friends IP Address to 8920, I'm thinking that's why I got this error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gyrene2083 1 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 Roger that Luke, thanks for all your support. I'm going to try to square this away later on in the week, that is when I will be able to get out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
