Hi Webdirect used to work but coming back to it - it seemed to have stopped working. To ensure it is not a network issue I have also tried to directly connect from the server by using http://127.0.0.1/fmi/webd and localhost/fmi/webd

 

Webdirect is turned on in the console but i do notice that the Web Publishing Engine IP is 127.0.0.1 - is that normal?

Also regardless if PHP and XML is turned on or off the Web server status button is grey.

 

FMS 13.0.1

Java 7 update 21

OSX 10.8.5 server

 

Any ideas??

thanks

I have exactly the same problem, as of yesterday WebDirect isn't working anymore. Admin console shows that WEb Publishing Engine is running (127.0.01), PHP & XML enabled, but Web Server is greyed out and I can't access any of my WebDirect databases because it says

 

 

Websites are turned off. An administrator can turn them on using the Server application.

 

 

Running Filemaker server 13 on OS X 10.9 with latest java updates, hadnt had any problems before yesterday, tried restarting filemaker server, the OS X server multiple times, but that doesn't seem to do anything, read from somewhere that it might take 10 minutes or so for them to start up, so I left it as it is for 24 hours, but still nothing. If anyone has any idea what is causing this and how to fix this, would greatly appreciate it. 

did any of you install the latest OSX patches / security updates that came out the day before yesterday?

No, not yet. Should I?

Not to fix this, but I was wondering if it was a coincidence.

Ah, well, havent upgraded or updated anything, it just sort of, stopped working. What I dont believe to be a coincidence is that Aussie James started encountering problems at the same time I did. 

No changes to the system in quite a while.

any traces in the logs that any FMS process quit unexpectedly?

Web publishing engine has stopped abnormally or something like that, but I've tried every possible way of restarting everything, to no avail, going to reinstall Filemaker Server today and see if that makes a difference. 

Reinstalling the server did the trick. Nice thing is, it kept all the files and databases, so I didn't even have to restore anything. It said that the ports 80 & 443 were in use, altho server.app said it is off, might want to try to stop apache from terminal by typing in: sudo apachectl stop , since filemaker has its own web server. 

seems 443 and 80 ports were taken over by the server.
