This article introduces how to solve the error " The hosting configuration file format is incorrect " after copying the address link on a Mac computer .
Sometimes, when we paste the subscription address into the corresponding software, 托管配置文件格式不正确: invalid mode: redir-hostan error message will appear.
If this error occurs, it means that we cannot import node and other information into the software normally (update failure will be displayed). This is because the latest version of the software uses fake-ipthe mode by default, and the configuration information in the subscription address given to us by some websites is redir-hostin the mode, thus causing the above error.
There are several solutions to this situation. First, we can change the version of the software and download the old version of the software. You can go to the official website and download the old version of the software; users who have encountered the same problem on the official website said that downloading 1.30.4the new version of the software can solve the problem.
Secondly, we can also solve this problem by converting the subscription address link format. But first we need to explain that with this method we need to put our subscription address into some third-party websites for conversion. No one can guarantee the security of these websites (in other words, whether our subscription address will be leaked). Everyone decides whether to use this method based on their actual situation.
Here is a subscription address conversion website that I tried and found is indeed available , but I am not sure whether this website will leak our address. You can just click to enter; as shown in the picture below.
Then, everyone first copies their subscription address to the " Subscription Link " column in the picture above, and then clicks the " Generate Subscription Link " option below; next, copy the newly generated link in " Customized Subscription " and manually import it into the software , or you can directly select the " One-click import " option at the bottom right of the picture above .
Then, a new window will pop up; you can configure the " Config Name " in it, that is, you can give this configuration a name at will.
Subsequently, in the new window that pops up, we can see that this configuration information can be updated normally; as shown in the figure below.
As long as it can be updated normally, there is a high probability that this configuration will be completed successfully and can be used.
At this point, you're done.
