Hey there, We've found an issue with Windows 11 and Microsoft accounts. During installation we set the permissions of the folder for any user on the PC, however if you're using a Microsoft account you're apparently in another category of access. Thus it isn't allowed to store any of the configurations/settings before running MistServer. Could you try going to the folder and setting the permissions to be more open? That will most likely fix the problem. With kind regards, Balder Viëtor Head of Testing MistServer

I have already try to install in the Desktop Directory,
but some how the map is still marked as read only,
even if I deselect the Read only option, save it and check again, the mark is back on read only

I have tried also with Ubuntu on Linux sub-system on Windows,

On what versions of windows is it working? I have also older windows versions on older laptops like windows 7 and XP

Easier might be running a docker build. We have done "some" tests on WSL, but as it's essentially the same as running a docker build we mostly look at those.

https://releases.mistserver.org/dl/120/0b2935b7c8bdf601d5858f1e5510f598/mistserver_docker_feature_alpine_docker_builds.tar.gz
The above is a Docker image based on Alpine with minimal console. It will probably get close to what you want. Don't forget to add a --shm-size=SIZE with SIZE being the amount of RAM you want to give it. For example 1G or 2G would be enough for most tests, but the default 64MB would not be.

i have it working, i can access the stream on the PC with WSL, but when i enter the IP on an other PC it cant find it

How can i give it a normal IP than a WSL IP to access it easely?

it has now the local IP adress: 172.31.103.26 172.17.0.1, i like to give it the normal ip adress like 192.168.2.51

Is there a way to make it like that?

The links are showing up like this:

Hey there,

What you're looking for is the networking setup for WSL itself.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/networking

If possible for you the mirrored mode would be the best fit, it would just bind anything in the WSL to the ip address of your hosting PC. However chances are you need to go for the Netsh portproxy.

The ports you need to bind/proxy are:

TCP:
4242 (MistServer interface, though you could keep this to your WSL machine only for security reasons)
8080 (http)
1935 (rtmp)
5554 (rtsp - TCP mode)
443 (https if used)
4200 (dtsc transport between servers)

UDP:
8889 (srt MistServer default, or pick other ports if you use another)
5554 (rtsp - UDP mode)

WebRTC will most likely be impossible as I can't imagine binding the entire ephemeral range being a good idea... We are working on a single port method for WebRTC though.
