"Could not connect to server"

[erickuhn19]

Trying to connect my zap desktop wallet to the zap mobile wallet. Followed the instructions and receiving the error, "Could not connect to server".

What information would be helpful to debug?

anything would be helpful :)

what instructions are you following? where are you running lnd? how are you running lndconnect?

[erickuhn19]

running lnd locally on Mac Mini. Yes running lndconnect and generated QR code but couldn't resize correctly so I coped and pasted after running lndconnect -j

My node is https://1ml.com/node/02b536fe1c2b50b6ab6b7074826a59dd3bbf93612594a33d4440c4f4f7095640a2

The address that populated in iOS app is correct with :10009 following. I've confirmed RPC is working because I can run lncli getinfo

[ottosuess]

have you configured lnd to use the external ip? that's always a bit complicated.
to get started you can run zapconnect -ji to use local ip. that should work if your phone is connected to the same wifi as the mac mini.

Phone is connected to same network and ran that command and gave it a try. Same error message which isn’t giving me much to go on.

I don’t know what you mean by configured to use external IP. I’m used the Node Launcher to set up LND and configured with nat = true so my node is public.

Looking at a Charles log, I'm seeing:
