Hi guys.

I'm working at a project of control Rasberry Pi GPIO's pins by my computer using WebIOPi. I'm a C++/Qt developer and I don't wanna to try Python and HTML stuffs.

Instead, I'd like to use the REST Api, So I found a interesting post where he used Curl to check if the WebIOPi responds and then he used Qt.

In that way I installed Curl and then I tried to change the function of GPIO4 with this setence:

curl -v -X POST -u webiopi:raspberry http://10.42.43.112:8000/GPIO/4/function/out

but it's showing this and I don't see any change in the GPIO status web.

At the moment,the daemon is running with the setence

sudo webiopi -d -c /etc/webiopi/config

and seeing throught Remmina with a VNC server...

May I ask for some help? Thank You

Thank you Guys. I was on the school but now I'm having another chance to set it up...

At the moment, I started the daemon and I got this output...
