PSYKOnz Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 It can’t be a ports thing. Mine was working fine until an update broke it. Mine. Was working fine both in local GUI and through the web based GUI so it must be something in the program that’s causing it maybe dcs server has a bug in it somewhere? Something that’s stopping it from talking to the GUI? Tomcat, Tomcat über allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eScourge Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Hi all, I have read all 58 pages and have not found an answer so hopefully someone can help me. I just want to know how to restart a mission from the webgui without restarting the server. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamron Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Hello everyone Since a few months I have a problem with the GUI interface for my dedicated server ... My server is running well in --server --norender mode But when I launch the WebGUI interface he tells me that the server is not responding ... Someone would have any idea ?

Zeagle Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 (edited) EDIT: I think my problems were just loading a big mission. All seems to work ok if I give the server a few minutes to load up properly. Edited August 15, 2019 by Zeagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElementLT Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Hi guys. I have figured out a workaround that appears to be working for me. I can access the web GUI just fine with this trick. I launch DCS using this command: "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin\DCS.exe" --server --force_disable_VR -w server1 As you can see, I have taken out the --norender option. I disabled rendering and added the following my autoexec.cfg: options.graphics.maxfps = 30 options.graphics.render3D = false crash_report_mode = "silent" disable_write_track = true webgui_port = 8088 it runs in dedicated server mode but you do not get the awesome performance as you do when using the --norender option. this allows me to access the server via webGUI. AI on the ground also work as normal this way as well. Maybe this will work for some of you guys as well. Edited August 17, 2019 by ElementLT Coming Soon...

DeltaMike Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I'm currently exploring the hypothesis that you have to have IIS installed properly and enabled to get localhost working, how to do that is not abundantly obvious to me on Win10 Server but perhaps one angle worth exploring Ryzen 5600X (stock), GBX570, 32Gb RAM, AMD 6900XT (reference), G2, WInwing Orion HOTAS, T-flight rudder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do these timeouts along the way to eagle.ru explain why?Not necessarily. Some nodes do not respond to ping (that's normal) but in that trace your connection works. I thing it's something related to software (DCS) and for some people works and others don't. I bet they hadn't figure out yet what It is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamron Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Obviously the dashboard works at home on my main PC, when I launch the dedicated server on my gaming PC but when I run it on my second local PC that serves as server support, WebGUI does not see the server.

Could this come from the java file that allows the connection to the server?Are you using stable DCS build? Openbeta? Dedicated server build? Which OS, browser and version? It seems that regular DCS version is working for some people when not using '--norender' parameter. And also people using it from the beginning seems to work ok. Those who installed it on latests updates and for the first time on a given machine are the ones having troubles, including me. At least that is what it seems. For me it's not working either on local or remote. The server itself works and appears in the DCS web when logged into my profile. People can connect and everything, but web console cannot connect to the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamron Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 My dedicated server, runs on windows 10, it's an open beta version. I'm trying to run the dashboard on Firefox version 68.0.2 64bit. What I can not understand is why it works on my PC gaming using the same OS and the same browser and why it does not work on my PC that serves as my server ...

Robles Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Well... That's funny. So, for you it works from another PC on your LAN but not locally where the server is running if I understand correctly... Another thing to add to the list. LOL That's a non sense :-(. It has to be something related to the way they've developed the web interface and the way they query the socket. I'm using that Firefox version too. Needs further testing I guess...
