Is it possible to have WebVisu working without having to connect to ethernet? I am trying to have a rasberry with a touchscreen working as a "Kiosk" but it does not like the fact that the rasperry is not connected to any LAN. Is there a way to achieve this? Thank you.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Hi, the problem is when you have no network, there is no ethernet comms for a default raspberry installation.
one way is to use auto instead of hotplug:
edit /etc/network/interfaces
if the following line is not there, add it:
auto eth0
if the following line is there, remove it:
allow-hotplug eth0
save and close the file
reboot
another way would be to add a loopback adapter.
I am not sure if this is valid for the current OS, so let everyone know if either of these work for you.

I just tried the loopback solution it did not work. If you have any other suggestions I could try, that would be great if not, thank you for your help. :)
