Start Web Server on sbRIO

[DavidT]

Hello,

I'm having difficulty starting the Web Server on an sbRIO-9627. I'm trying to create a project to use the NI Dashboard for Ipad to view and control a program running on the sbRIO RT.

At the moment I am able to view data via network shared variables, but would like to use Web Services for other items.

I've tried to follow some of the NI tutorials but when launching the Application Web Server I get a message saying my Web Server is not running (see attached picture).

I've looked at the Web Configuration and this is disabled. When I try to enable I get a message I need to restart the sbRIO, but when it's restarted, the Web Server is disabled again.

Finally looking at the task manager, there looks to be a Web Server service but it is stopped. I can't start it from Task Manager either.

Any tips on how to get this working?

Thanks,

Dave

Hey Dave,

Can you confirm that you have correctly installed NI Application Webserver on the sbRIO? You can check your installed software in NI-MAX.

Are you currently running an application on startup? If so, this application needs to have Webservices enabled.  http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/3FCEEE219996A4B7862570580007C419?OpenDocument

Hi Jelmer,

I can confirm the application webserver has been installed.

I am currently running a VI. From your comment, am I to assume the web server will not start on a deployed VI, only with an exe?

The link you provided does not open?

Regards,
