Description
Hi All,
Just to get it out there if you get the following error message when attempting to test with your own self-hosted librespeedtest instance:
Selected server is not responding at the moment, try again later
The fix is just to add the "backend/" to the variables with the php files, I did not figure this out on my own, it was posted [HERE] by @fmolinelli (https://github.com/librespeed/speedtest-cli/issues/27)
[
{
"id": 0,
"name": "<Name>",
"server": "http://URL or IP/",
"dlURL": "backend/**garbage.php",
"ulURL": "backend/empty.php",
"pingURL": "backend/empty.php",
"getIpURL": "backend/getIP.php"
}
