what is your FG command line that sets up the internal web server?
what is the URL you are putting in your browser's address bar?
what is your localhost address? generally it is 127.0.0.1 but some systems set it up differently...

I've just realised that I forgot to insert --httpd=8080 in settings! Of course it works fine now :-) tks.

But FlightgearMap can put the instruments on any android device increasing realism and I still have recurrent connection timeouts!
any idea how to debug this prob?
I can ping the phones/tablet from the pc with no loss,
FG settings have the right lines inserted,
andtlas.xml is copied over,
udp and tcp ports are open in firewall,

It did actually work really well before, I've no idea what happened.

I don't even know what kind of protocols/connectivity it is using - so it's hard to troubleshoot this, unless someone steps in who's more familiar with the tools involved here.

last system updates wiped out the andatlas.xml file which must be in the FG_ROOT folder!

Do you mean it works sometimes and then other times it times out? Or it times out and never works?

Not trying to turn you off of FGMap, but the built in one works on any Android tablet that runs a web browser.

Edit:
To be sure, I tested FGMap and used the following settings

--generic=socket,out,10,192.168.0.8,5501,udp,andatlas
--telnet=socket,in,20,,9000,tcp

included andatlas.xml in the fgdata/Protocol folder and it worked fine on my Android device.
