Can't access IP while on LAN or WAN.
Ping just fine
SSH in just fine with putty.

Use the same IP in:
http://ip_address:8765

http://ip_address:8765

Thank you, that did it!!!

Nice and simple.

Hello. I have the same issue with my raspberry pi 4. The ip address doesn't appear. What do you mean by saying to use the same ip???

Use the IP address of the Pi. If the Pi gets the ip address 192.168.1.23, you would use the web url http://192.168.1.23:8765. If you are using motionEyeOS instead of motionEye on another OS, you would use just the web url http://192.168.1.23

Yes but the issue is that the raspberry doesn't give any ip. When I start the device I get no ip.

Hook up a monitor to the Pi if running motionEyeOS, it gives you the ip address during the last of the boot up.
Hook up a monitor and keyboard if running motionEye on another OS, log in, and enter

ip a

in a terminal window and it will show you the IP addresses.
Look in your router's DHCP leases. Most Pi mac addresses begin with dc:a6:32 or b8:27:eb but it may show the meye-xxxxxx name.
Run a program like AngryIP or AdvancedIP scanner if running windows
There are MANY different ways to find the ip address.

Well I did it. I hooked a monitor to raspberry but it doesn't start. I installed in another card the Raspberry pi os and everything worked fine. I was able to see my ip and the screen worked fine.
I reinstalled the motioneye os to an empty card following all the github motioneyeos instructions and again same issue.
No screen no ip. The pi is booting and the screen is empty,black and I try to scan the ip but nothing.
It's weird. The os img is not the proper or I am doing a mistake...

At the beginning, you post it as an OrangePi Zero 2W, then we started talking Raspberry Pi.
The OrangePi Zero 2W was released around Oct 2021, more than a year after the last images were created. There isn't a valid image for it. I would load a valid OS (Buster or Bullseye version of Debian or Ubuntu) and build/install motionEye from here

Yea I started it with orangepi and he NOT me added Rpi.
