Missing Web Package Manager

Q&A regarding installation and issues getting started with Servoy

Missing Web Package Manager

Postby sergei.sheinin » Thu Mar 23, 2017 9:20 am

Hello,

I just installed Servoy 8.1. When I select "Web Packages" context menu of my solution and try the "Download/Install with Web Packages Manager" a 404 error is generated. I can tell that directory/file "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wpm\index.html" was not created during installation.

What would be the correct installation procedure for WPM? I have both Servoy 7 and 8 on my machine.

What Web Package Manager does in developer is open a browser in the editor area.
It opens URL "http://localhost:" + servoyPort + "/wpm/index.html".

I suspect in your case you have another server (IIS) running on the same port as Servoy. As it was started before, Servoy can't listen on that port and you are accessing a completely different thing.
So either stop IIS (or change it's port) or change Servoy's port (see wiki on how to do that).

Yes, you're right. I got confused as to why Servoy error displayed "C:\inetpub\wwwroot". It makes sense now.
