Can't Remote Open a Served Database - Why?

Hi all,

Total novice here.

I'm trying to get a super simple database working with a super simple PHP site. It's called TicTacToe - just something easy for me to figure out how this all works.

I've got FMServer 11 running, with my TicTacToe database uploaded. I can search for records via PHP, and all seems OK.

However, when I try to open my TicTacToe from the FileMaker Pro app (on the same machine as the server) via "Open Remote File", my TicTacToe database isn't listed. Only the FM_Sample database is listed. Both databases are listed in the Admin console as Status: Normal.

Have a look at my screenshot - any clues there? Does this have something to do with permissions?

Thanks in advance for any help!

The remote admin console page has the answer: it isn't shared for Pro, there is no tick in the column.
