Local server and USB as possible?

francisrav4 · October 4, 2016, 12:29pm

Hello, sorry for my English, I am Belgian
I hope to write in the right place
I use Blink with smatphone (wireless) and USB cable connected to Arduino UNO, everything works ok. (Windows 10).

it is possible to use a local server and USB?
I install the .jar file to the local server (server-0.18.3.jar) normally successfully, see print screen

Then I am lost for use “if possible”, could you help me

Thanks for reading me

Francis

I’ll watch your link to understand my mistake

saurabh47 · October 4, 2016, 3:39pm

is your local working fine???
have you tired to connect your smart phone to local server??

francisrav4 · October 4, 2016, 3:46pm

hello I tried
App and sketch exchange

 Specify custom server path in your app

With my IP and password

can not connect

saurabh47 · October 4, 2016, 3:53pm

first solve this problem.

follow this guide.in this video at 7:50min
give the absolute/real path
or run this command
-jar server-0.18.3.jar -dataFolder data
the folders look like this
enter link description here

francisrav4 · October 4, 2016, 5:20pm

i get the message

Blynk Server successfully started.
All server output is stored in folder ‘C:\Users\Francis\Blink server.\logs’ file.

I’m forced to use a gmail.com address ?, I have a hotmail.com address

Blink in server I do not have
server_embedded.crt
server_embedded.csr
server_embedded.key
server_embedded.pem

In data I have no .user file

I watched the video, but I do not know what to enter certain parameters, much too complicated to create a local seveur for me

thank you for your help, I’m an ass

Lichtsignaal · October 5, 2016, 6:48am

Are you native dutch or french speaker? I can probably help you out in the first case, but my french is very much non-existent.

I’m running a local server too and it works fine. Mail and server certificates are not mandatory by the way, so it should work without them (except mailing notifications of course).

francisrav4 · October 5, 2016, 8:32am

Bonjour Lichtsignaal, c’est le français, merci.

Désolé, je n’ai pas appris le Néerlandais

je n’ai pas de module wifi connecté à l’Arduino, c’est donc commander l’Arduino connecté en USB et smartphone en wifi en réseau local,

Arduino connecté en USB et smartphone en wifi par serveur blink ok fonctionne mais par réseau local je n’arrive pas

Google traduction

Lichtsignaal Hallo, dit is Frans, dank je.

Sorry, ik heb niet leren Nederlands

Ik heb geen wifi-module aangesloten op de Arduino, zodat het bevel van de Arduino-USB aangesloten smartphone en draadloze LAN,

Arduino aangesloten via USB en wifi smartphone door knipperen server werkt ok, maar door LAN Ik kan niet

Lichtsignaal · October 5, 2016, 1:24pm

Ok, nevermind than, as I said, I don’t speak French, I’m from holland.

You can edit your sketch to connect the Arduino to your local server, so yes, that is possible. Please see the “Manual connection” example. It shows you how you can connect to a different server than the standard one.

francisrav4 · October 5, 2016, 3:20pm

I erased everything

What works

Create program with Blink, turn on and off an LED
Connect the USB Arduino board, Boards_Serial_USB Use example (in Arduino)
Place the tank auth
Upload in Arduino
Set Blynk_Release_v0.3.9
Copied Blynk, BlynkESP8266_Lib, SimpleTimer and Time in directory
Open the file ser.bat blynk-line set COMM_PORT = COM to my com port (12)
Rename com2tcp.bin in com2tcp.exe
Leaving the Arduino program
Throwing the blynk-ser.bat file
Start the Blink program on my smartphone with my email address and password Token + (OK connection)
OK everything works

To go well, can you tell me the same procedure to create a local
server via USB, I am probably toujour the same error when I want to
create one

I have java installed

java version “1.8.0_101”
Java ™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_101-b13)
Java HotSpot ™ Client VM (build 25 101-b13, mixed mode, sharing)

create Blink directory server in c: / user / francis / server blink
copied server-0.18.3.jar in c: / user / francis / server blink
Start CMD and go to c: / user / francis / server blink
Type java -jar server-0.18.3.jar -dataFolder / path
The window displays

Blynk Server successfully started.
All server output is Stored in folder 'C:. \ Users \ Francis \ Blink server \ logs ’ file.

file appears blink.log

I made a mistake? If ok, I did what then sorry to take your time

Costas · October 5, 2016, 3:59pm

No spaces please in folder names.
Try again and provide new results.

In 4) replace “/ path” with something real like C:/user/francis/serverblink no spaces between server and blink

In time you will also need to sort out your certificates.

Costas · October 5, 2016, 4:06pm

I believe work has been done with other email providers but for now I would use Gmail and set up forwarding to Hotmail. You need to authorise Gmail to process emails via Blynk. Procedure is covered in the comprehensive local server setup on GitHub.

francisrav4 · October 5, 2016, 4:27pm

Hello Costas

sorry, no space is google translation which placed

Costas · October 5, 2016, 4:33pm

means use C:\Users\Francis\Blinkserver\ NOT C:\Users\Francis\Blink server\

francisrav4 · October 5, 2016, 4:48pm

OK this is done, then?

francisrav4 · October 5, 2016, 4:59pm

no change, always the same messages

I made the connection with my manual IP token and password but do not want to connect it

Costas · October 5, 2016, 5:07pm

Error messages are because you a haven’t created the certs but this doesn’t normally stop the system working, it is just that it is insecure.
