Unable to Connect CC3200-Box to TeddyCloud

VolkerMue · February 20, 2025, 4:11pm

Like others, I’m pretty much at the end of my rope when it comes to connecting the CC3200 to TeddyCloud.

TC runs in a Docker container on an Ubuntu server.
The connection with Boxine and TC itself is online (green).

The Toniebox and the TeddyCloud are currently the only participants in a separate VLAN and communicate or can be pinged to each other.

I can’t find the error at the moment, but I suspect that I’m having problems with the configurations/patches.

As soon as I switch to “ofw2”, I get the error message “EULE/OWL”.
However, I have also not understood which hostname I have to enter in the altUrl.custom.305, as the hostname cannot be resolved via DockerContainer and cannot be pinged.

Here is an excerpt from the container log

The box has to reach teddyCloud with that hostname (or IP) like your browser would do.

VolkerMue · February 20, 2025, 6:29pm

In my json i already entered IP-Adress, but no Connection possible.

0xbadbee · February 20, 2025, 7:29pm

You entered the IP address? How your json looks like?

VolkerMue · February 20, 2025, 8:28pm

Yes, i tested it with ip, because the Hostname from Docker (“d88a2ced6077”) is not routable…or maybe just a DNS-Problem?

So you did not entered the ip in your ngcfg.json (what’s correct) in contrast to your reply.

I assume you meant you entered the ip in the alturl.custom patch. Can you show that one?

I hope you know and understand what you are doing if you created a separated clan for your toniebox/teddycloud setup. (What is the reason for you to separate this?)

VolkerMue · February 21, 2025, 7:10am

Each of my Docker containers has its own IP address using macvlan.
However, the respective devices are pingable with each other and can communicate even if they are in different networks.

I only put the Toniebox in the same VLAN as TC out of desperation so that I can rule out any problems with the network.

Default network: 172.20.10.x\24 - everything, incl. Tonieboxes
Network- Grandparents: 172.20.20.x\24 - separate VLAN wit separate WIFI
Network Docker container: 172.20.30.x\24

henryk · February 21, 2025, 11:03am

Looks Fine.

I assume the box does not appear in teddycloud?

What happens if you try to access teddycloud using https and port 443?

VolkerMue · February 21, 2025, 12:22pm

I always had only access via https. Bevore i started with Bottloader and stuff TC was correctly setup include certs.

At the moment i started new from scratch with docker in same network.

henryk · February 21, 2025, 1:42pm

The web Ui uses port 8443 for https.

I am asking for port 443 which is used exclusively by toniebox

VolkerMue · February 21, 2025, 4:35pm

I´ve read that in the wiki…but traffic was clean and port open and not doubled.

Anyway, i do a clean setup, writing only fresh “c2.der” to the box and voilá - it works!!!

I still dont know the reason, but much thx for your input.
