When your target ESP32 is being an access point, maybe try connecting to it from an Android (assuming your phone is Android) TCP client such as this one:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... ools&hl=en

(or similar).

You should be able to connect your phone to the ESP32 access point network and then attempt a TCP connection. This will give us a new data point.

Another thought ... when your ESP32 is being an access point and you connect to it from your PC, paste your complete serial output log including the connection from the PC. Make sure that your ESP32 is configured at logging level "verbose".

Of course I am using android :roll: Downloaded the tcp tools (nice app) and it connected fine while esp was in client mode (softAP). error in server mode is "connection error:control port or ip address".

serial logs of connections (or attempts) with PC...

AP and beServer = 1 (softAP acting as listening server)

Re: listening server

I have tried other code examples with the same result. also updated the IDF to latest. installed wireshark. here's what happens once the client and listener find each other:

688 103.012844 192.168.0.34 192.168.0.52 TCP 60 7777 → 52319 [RST, ACK] Seq=1 Ack=1 Win=5744 Len=0
689 103.514148 192.168.0.52 192.168.0.34 TCP 66 [TCP Retransmission] 52319 → 7777 [SYN] Seq=0 Win=64240 Len=0 MSS=1460 WS=256 SACK_PERM=1

Not sure what is causing TCP retransmissions?

Re: listening server

I read through your code and "think" I have found the answer. In your code you define:

Code: Select all

#define PORT "7777"


// Bind our server socket to a port.
serverAddress.sin_family = AF_INET;
serverAddress.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_ANY);
serverAddress.sin_port = htons(PORT);
int rc  = bind(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&serverAddress, sizeof(serverAddress));
The htons() function expects as input a C "short" data type (16 bits) and converts it to a network endian version. However, what is being passed to it is the address of a string (a pointer to "7777").

Trying changing your code from

Code: Select all

#define PORT "7777"
to

Code: Select all

#define PORT 7777
and if this works ... send me a virtual coffee.

That did it! Thank you Kolban!

Not familiar with "virtual coffee". How about paypal instead?

Peter,
I'm delighted that worked. The "virtual coffee" was my attempt at humor (sorry). Assisting folks with ESP32 is all part of the service. Ive been the beneficiary as many times as not. If you get the chance, pay it forward with what ever you learn in what ever area you can be of help.
