Server running and target connects, but doesn't show in client UI

[Scott Rankin]

Hi All,

I've just installed weinre on my Mac OS 10.8 system using npm (I have version 2.0.0-pre-HA5N9T49).  Everything fires up OK, and it appears that the debug target connects fine, but no targets ever show up in the client UI.  If I turn on debug, I get output that makes me think that the issue isn't the target:

but the targets section stubbornly remains empty.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

The client appears to be connecting with the "anonymous" id - the default.  Is the target also connecting with this id, or using the default?  See: http://people.apache.org/~pmuellr/weinre/docs/latest/MultiUser.html

Hey Patrick,

Forcing both the client and the target to use "anonymous" seemed to do the trick.  Thanks so much for your help!
