Got a question, I'm on 5.5.0 right now. It's a good idea to get 5.5.1 or should I stay on 5.5.0?
Thanks for putting this together. Suggestion: It would be nice to have xampp removed and hosted as a separate download, though. I'm hosting the files on an already-setup webserver and don't need the extra 100MB file with every update.
Thanks again.
For the life of me I can't get a local server to work properly.
I've got xampp installed. I run it as an elevated user, just to be sure. When I start Apache, it doesn't return any errors. Everything seems to be fine on this end. But when I attempt to access my local IPv4 address on my Wii U or any other device on the network, it times out, unable to load the page. I've checked and double checked that Port 80 isn't being used (it isn't), and I even tried changing the port for the Apache server to something else, with no luck. I've checked that my IPv4 is correct, and it is. I've disabled my firewall. Still no change. I've attempted to run xampp from a second computer on the network with its own IPv4 (an older machine running Win7), but that, too, just hangs for a while before timing out.
This leads me to believe the issue is with my router, but that's where I hit a wall. I don't know where to proceed from here, what settings could be causing this or how to fix it.
I'd just resign myself to using one of the servers that other people have set up, such as the included 107.170.0.56, but unfortunately I'm one of the ones running into freezing issues when I try run the exploit from that server. I've read that some people were freezing when trying to run off other servers but succeeding when running off their local server, so I'd really like to get xampp and Apache working so I can at least test if it fixes the freezing issue for me, too.
I just want to mod Smash Bros. :/
EDIT: Okay, so it's definitely something to do with my router. I tried creating servers with the Java and Python methods. Both work fine on my machine, no errors whatsoever. But the pages simply can't be loaded on any of the other devices on the network. Does anyone know what could be causing this behavior? Why can't I get any of my machines to talk to each other?
EDIT: Wound up just creating a server off my phone and creating a mobile hotspot to bypass the router altogether. Works like a charm now.

Do not waste your time with a local server trust me. I have been doing this all day and the kernel exploit was always freezing. What I did is simple, I copied his files in the sd card then you go to this website http://loadiine.ovh/ on your wii u. Select Hombrew Illuminati then click on submit. After this, it will make you come back on wii u menu, go back again on your wii u browser and type again http://loadiine.ovh/ select hombrew and there you go you can load loadline or wtv app you have! It's so simple and never freeze at least once! Enjoy!
I'm on 5.5.1 just to let you know guys

That worked perfectly. I've spent hours trying to figure this out and this one just worked out of the box. Thanks a bunch.
(Still though, now that I know I'm apparently incapable of setting up a local server I really wish I knew what I was doing wrong, just for posterity.)

Just uploaded the A folder from zip file to my webhost.
Nothing to say as it just works
I choose the first entry (5.5.1) then first kexploit then loadiine_gx2 ou HBL.
@Kafluke : the meta.xml of your B folder for loadiine_gx2 is... not the good one
Not looking for a good ftp server app for my WiiU

This is an Internet URL lol
Yes you need Internet connection to launch it on your Wii U browser.
I have tested using ez Share card that works on a 5.3.2 wii u and it will not detect on my 5.5.1 wii u when I use the files for 5.5.1.
I cant explain it but the wii u browser doesnt acknowledge the easy share card at all except for its wifi connection..... strange.
EDIT reverted files back to 5.3.2, and tested in 5.3.2 wii u again and it works flawlessly... just not in the 5.5.1 with updated 5.5.1 files.....
EDIT: Ok i got some useful info
I had a USB thumb drive in back of wii u, it refused to read ez shard SD while it was in, i removed it and it worked, however it needs php.. needs more investigating.
So browser is somehow tied to USB

It's not an internal URL. It's externally hosted but yes, you have to have wifi turned on everytime you run an exploit lol
I also tried it with my Flashair card, the Wii U can connect to it, but when I run the exploit for 5.5.1 it just freezes. With the same files on xampp, it works fine, so I'm not sure whats wrong.
I have also tired running the exploit directly (loading the kexploit10.mp4 directly in the flashair SD card) and have successfully done it maybe twice out of 20 tries, so not good.
I know the Flashair card works fine as I use it on a 5.3.2 Wii U also.
Would love to hear how you get on as I'm lost as to what to do to fix it XD

Success rate for MP4 has always been very low (for me) on 5.5.1 even with homebrew. ... currently 0 for 10 attempts.....
I think its just a waiting game for stability self hosting with wifi cards.
EDIT ok 10 attempts 3 different sets of files, that 30 times fail.... leaving 5.5.1 ez share testing until something new surfaces....
