Hello.

I am following the WebDev tutorial and I got the "My first pages" lesson.
I click on "Go" (similar to test an app in WinDev).

But I am receiving the error:
The check of the application server failed. What do you want to do?
Start diagnostic - Run test - Cancel

1.
If I click on "Run test", the FireFox explorer opens and a "Not found" page appears, indicating that http://localhost/My_first_pages/CONNECT_MODETEST/kA4AAAAAAAB2Q0hRUFB3Z09vAAA, what I consider it's evident, because the "My_first_pages" project is not inside the localhost web-server; I opened it in accordance to the tutorial.

2.
If I click on "Start diagnostic", several tests are completed bot two are marked as fail: "the HTTP server version" and "existence of the launcher in the virtual directory", what I consider it's evident, because I hace not copied the WD150Awp.exe --shown in the error window-- anywhere.

I think that it is because I have not say to WebDev where is the web-server.... BUT THE TUTORIAL DOES NOT ASK FOR IT.... at lest until here.

I use the Joomla Spanish Server 2, a lite Apache server.

Can you help me?

Thanks.

Hi

The configuration of the web server should have been done during the
install of webdev. That is done automatically IF:
- the server you are using is recognized by the webdev version you are
using (IIS yes, Apache alone yes, Apache included in something else like
your case, not so much, most of the time)
- you install webdev AFTER installing the web server, of course

If you didn't do it at this point, look in the advanced tab of the
webdev administrator (the one that is open to perform the tests) and use
the SERVER button to see if webdev can find your server and configure
it... I suppose it wont be the case because the tests/corrections should
have done the trick, but you can try

If that doesn't work, you have two solution:

1. replace your web server by one that is fully supported, and stop
being bothered by the problem

2. Look on the FRENCH webdev forum for the information pertaining to
your specific web server configuration, IF ANY, then configure manually,
and continue to do so each time you start a new project

Best regards

Hi,
I am experiencing excatly the same problem. I just cannot test my pages as it keeps giving me this error. I have just received my new WEBDEV 18, and spent 2 nights trying to go through the tutorial. Keep getting stuck here. I have removed all other web authoring tools, reinstalled webdev, installed webdev on another machine where the webdev installation tried to install IIS without success. I installled Apache, and re-installed webdev, but still getting the problem.

Anyone please help. getting very annoyed with working on a brand new product but cannot even get going on lesson 1 in the tutorial.
