Cannot open Developer (ver 6.63)

[Bob Worley]

Is this Google group still active?   

We are still on version 6.63.  We stopped developing in Designbais over a year ago, but our users are still using some pieces of it.  But now I have a need to get back in and change some things, and I cannot access Designbais in developer mode, Internet Explorer.   I am getting :

404 - File or directory not found.

The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

I am able to run the application in IE, and Chrome: URL http://db2.coburns.local/db/dbweb.asp?dbcgm=1

But if i try http://db2.coburns.local/  in IE i get the 404 error. 

I've verified compatibility mode and trusted sites are set.

Well, here is an update:  IE just decided to start working on its own.  I have no idea what changed.    But anyway I can get into developer mode now. 

So, FWIW - i'm on Windows 10 / IE ver 11

Hi Bobby,

Yes, it is still active; but I only saw your post in the daily summary email that arrived a few moments ago here in Sydney, Oz.

I see you got it going again??

However; I think the issue you had was the URL was wrong.

dbweb apps typically sit at a URL like http://<resolvablewebservername>/<dbwebname>

The default dbwebname used by sitebuilder is db so in your case I'd expect it to be at  http://db2.coburns.local/db

Therefore, the 404 error was correct.

If you've RDP'd to the web server you can naturally run it from  http://localhost/db as that resolves to the same thing. If you know the IP address of the server & are on the same segment  http://<IP_address>/db is yet another synonym.

Bit late, but hope that helps?

Cheers!

David,  thanks - yes the URL was wrong.
