Does Service Discovery Need to Be installed/enabled Separately?

Might be a dumb question, but the wiki is pretty slack regarding any troubleshooting or initialization.

I have OH 1.8, works via browser connection. However, attempting to have Android app discovery on local network via WiFi, it fails. Checking with a bonjour browser, I don’t see the service broadcasting.

That being said, is this bundle something that needs to be enabled or installed somehow? If not, any troubleshooting steps? Thanks!

I didn’t know autodiscovery from the apps was even a thing. Maybe its only an OH 2 thing though. If it were OH 1 I’m pretty sure it would have been in the wiki.

If you’re talking about the official OpenHab app, at least on Iphone you need to put the “:8080” at the end of the ip and also “http://”.

So: http://xxx.xx.xx.xxx:8080 works for me.

This is what I am referring to. https://github.com/openhab/openhab/wiki/Service-Discovery

Apparently, if on a LAN, and you don’t put any URL information, OpenHab is supposed to serve up the connection. The broadcast can be seen with a Bonjour browser, but it is not working.
