I have created an chat app using Socket.IO . It works fine on my home internet. But whenever I am at my university and connected to versity wifi internet, I can't get connected at all. Its facing 'net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT' error.
Here is the url: demo.codesamplez.com/ultrachat/demo.html (You will may get it OK, as I do on home)
I guess, this might be some kind of firewall issue or something?
Does anybody has any clue how to go forward for solving this? Thanks in advance.
Switching from HTTP to HTTPS should get around the problem with incompatible proxy server. That forces the proxy to use HTTP tunneling to maintain the connection instead performing whatever magic it does.

im trying now for hours and didnt get any further. I just got a simple Express app and an nginx server running on my raspberry pi.
Problem: I cannot access it through the external api. I always got a timeout :/
Steps that i took:
Configured Sites-available.
Checked for listeners:
[
Tried all port-forwarding stuff i could found in the router settings:
(its german but i guess u get the point)
Please help me ! Thx in advance :)
Problem Solved
The missing point was my router. Not every Router supports to access the external API while ure connected with the youre local internet.
I turned of the WI-FI on my phone and were able to access the site via external ip adress and the domain routing to it.
I hotspoted my PC and were also able to access the website
!! Most modern routers allow accessing while you stayed connect locally to the internet, so in most set up guides they didnt mention.
Hope i could help someone in future trouble.
For me it was a waste of 4-5 h. Happy Coding guys!
I disable the internet connection and run the node server npm start, then it throws the error:
And now enabling internet connection and running the server works fine:
So, I want to confirm if this really needs to be connected to the internet while starting the server?
If it really needs internet connection, then is there any idea to run the server offline?
If I connect to the internet and run the server and there after plug out the internet connection then there's nothing goes wrong. Everything works fine. I don't know why just running the server requires the internet connection.
OMG! It's really cool! I got it working offline after hard research in my code using 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost for mongo uri.
Using localhost needed for me to connect to the internet.
And using 127.0.0.1 worked in both condition i.e. with internet connection and without internet connection.
But, really I'm totally amazed of this.
I found the really cool topic on this which made me clear about this.
If you use 127.0.0.1, then (intelligent) software will just turn that directly into an IP address and use it.
And there's no guarantee that your hosts file will actually be used for that resolution (first, or at all) so localhost may become a totally different IP address.
I have simple Node.js and Socket.IO app running on Nodejitsu. The App is running perfectly from home and some other Internet services but not working from my work!
Here is the error Message which I am getting

Can you please let me know why this is happening? is this kind of Firewall issue?
Thanks
After talking with you on the #nodejitsu IRC channel, it seems that this may indeed be a problem with your work proxy/firewall.
As was suggested to you in the chat last night, you could always try to use secure websocket connections (wss rather than ws) to see if that will allow your connections to pass through.
If that doesn't work, you would need to send your connection outside of your work's connection. For instance, proxying into a computer at your home and using your home network while you're at work and want to use websockets.
I am trying to create a web based PHP application which can allow chat to my Gmail friends. Something like meebo.com. I downloaded XMPPHP, and executed on localhost, and it is working fine, but when I uploaded everything to Yahoo Small business web hosting, it is throwing connection timeout error.
Do anyone else faced such problem. I heard many of them did, but no one have any solution yet.
Any suggestion will be very helpful. I am new to XMPP clients.
Just some ideas...
How are you trying to connect to the XMPP server? With XMPPHP you may use two classes which are
XMPPHP
XMPPHP_BOSH
You might try both, since they work on different ports (XMPPHP for example on 5222 and XMPPHP_BOSH on 80). So if this is a port issue, trying XMPPHP_BOSH would be an idea. You will need to find out though if this is supported by the XMPP server you are trying to connect to. And if so, you need to know the url the server exposes the BOSH service on.
Anyways, I would recommend to check out what kind of 'restrictions' there are in Yahoo Small business web hosting and on the side of the XMPP server.
If you intend to check XMPPHP_BOSH out, consider this issue to make it work: Issue 47: Http-bind error. All in all XMPPHP seems very buggy and incomplete...
I am making an application which has j2me in client side and dotnet on server side.
I need to make an https connection to post to and fetch data from the server.
Can anyone help?
I tried searching on the net but i cannot find much on internet about establishing https connection.
Can anyone explain or reccommend a website??
If you had problems finding J2ME HTTPS examples, this is a nice article.
The above link doesn't work any more. Alternative articles:
IBM Developerworks
Possible causes of https not working is because the server does not have a valid certificate. Try catching exceptions in the part where you make the connection.
