I just installed my FLM, but I get these error messages when visiting the dash (Mac OSX 10.8 Google Chrome):
Error - The call for sensor Gas experienced a timeout. You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM.
Error - The call for sensor Water experienced a timeout. You are probably not in the same local network as the FLM.
Same error for the electrical sensors.
Any help is appreciated.
@the_roggy Thanks for pointing out the presence of the Strict-Transport-Security response header field. I completely forgot that I ever enabled this setting. I've just disabled it in nginx. So the minute tab should work again with recent versions of Chrome. Can you confirm this?
@michi The only reason the local JSON/REST API is disabled by default is for security reasons. It'll be enabled by default in future releases.
Seems like we always have to strike a balance between security on the one hand and features + ease of use on the other hand.
@icarus75 Yes, I hear you :) I'd just enable it and put something in the manual about it, as well as on the config page, so people know what it means. "Enabling this will enable the minute tab in the Dash. Note that enabling this option permits any computer on your LAN to access the Flukso's data." or some such.
For most people, the security issue won't be a concern because they'll rely on their Wifi encryption to protect the Flukso from being accessed by unauthorized machines.
Michi.
