Web admin connection failure

[dennit]

I can't get the web admin running. I've tried:
http://localhost:7647/gbpvr
http://192.168.1.xxx:7647/gbpvr
http://<name in hosts file>:7647/gbpvr

The port is correct.

I have no trouble accessing another web server (uTorrent on this machine)

I get this response in the browser from the local machine:

Code:

Server Error in '/gbpvr' Application.

I get a security error when accessing from another machine.

As you can see, I have GBPVR installed in a non-standard directory, but it seems to be looking in the right spot.

I never see a request to enter the user/password.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a bad or corrupt ewa install. Follow the directions for installing located on the wiki and let me know how you make out.

While you are at it you can download the latest release from there as well and install that.

That fixed it. Thanks. I almost tried downloading and installing EWA from the wiki before posting, but for some reason, I was under the impression that the Enhanced Web Admin described in the wiki was a plugin or replacement for the default non enhanced web admin in config. I was under the incorrect impression that I needed the default web admin to run before I could try the enhanced version.

EWA is the same web interface that comes with GBPVR......but they do have separate release schedules.....they periodically sync-up like the last release of gbpvr......I am sure the next release of GBPVR (whenever that will be) will catch up and have build 81 included in it.

hello,

I am having also problems with this Web Server. This server does not have any other web applications running, but when I try to connect using http://server:7647, I get the following error:

Server Error in '/gbpvr' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HTTP Error 404 - Not Found.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version Information: Cassini Web Server 1.0.3529.34129

What is wrong?

I have the same Problem since upgrade to GB-PVR 1.4.7

I can't reach EWA from localhost
I can't reach EWA from another location

Internet Explorer 8 tell's on try to open it local, that this PC weren't be configured to listen on Port xxxx (the same as ever before, checked twice in the config).

I even followed the wiki guide and installed EWA 81 like the called procedures. No success.

Firewall for testing purposes disabled too... no success. Any Ideas?

You need to use http://server:7647/gbpvr/ at a minimum....you are not using the whole context.

I prefer to use a full URL like http://server:7647/gbpvr/guide2.aspx (opens to the CSS based guide) ....if you use guide.aspx you will access the the table based guide

Are you using the full context as mentioned in the post above?

Ok...what exactly happens whey you try to access EWA? Screen shots are helpful as well as any messages that are displayed.
