I installed ewb3 and then localhost certificate.

When I start ewb3 I get error (see attached animated gif).

After error ewb3 opens and I then add to a form just a button and when I run this application I get error:
Error executing request to http://localhost/authentication. The request timed out.

This is fresh first time install.

So I wonder what to do next.

Tim will be best to answer but my guess is that you have have something
already listening on the server ports EWB3 want to use (8080, 8443 by
default).

Can you check and if yes then stop whatever is using those ports ?

Alternatively you can change ports EWB IDE uses - without server being
able to run i think you need to edit INi direct though.

Should be in

C:\Users\<account login>\AppData\Local\Elevate Software\Elevate Web
Builder 3\ewbide.ini

look for [Server_Internal] section and

following port settings

Port=8080
Secure Port=8443

For reason or other but there is no Server_Internal section at all and so no Port settings.

That most likely indicates this is the issue then - i assume internal
server would add those INI entries on the initial run.

Were you able to check if something else is on those ports ?

Easiest is still to just turn whatever is listening off temporarily.

Otherwise this is the section with those 2 entries - you should be able
to manually add it in and change ports.

See if IDE and server starts up properly and it should populate rest of
the seciton


[Server_Internal]
Port=8080
Secure Port=8443

Have you ever used any prior version of EWB on this machine ?

Tim,

EWB2 latest version.

Kenneth,

Ignore that question - I forgot that EWB 3 uses a different directory for the ewbide.ini file.

What happens if you try to start and stop the Internal web server using the Server Manager in the IDE ?
