I've got my FileMaker Server all set up and the web publishing turned on.

The issue i'm having is that when i go to my address i get the following

I'm wanting to access the server and make the changes to the database but unsure how to. I've tried looking into the user guides and haven't really found it helpful. There might be a bug or something if someone could help me out.

Also when i add /fmi/iwp/ to the end i get the folowing

I've followed the user guides the best i can but still getting these errors.

 

Please help

Looks like you are missing the port. Try adding :16000

Oh, and it probably must be https:// and not http://

If you want to access WebDirect (not the same thing as IWP) use a URL like this https://www.yourserversdomain.com/fmi/webd#

So, which changes are you talking about ?

- do you want to change setting for the server ?

- Do you want to develop the database file and create layouts and script ?

- Do you want to enter data into an existing database file via a webbrowser ?

 

Really that is the question.

If you are not sure what to do, you might have started too early with the server... and in such case, I would recommend that you go to FileMaker's website and learn more about FileMaker.

In Manage Security section of the file, locate the Privilege Set for the Account used to open the file.  In the Extended Privileges section, click the WebDirect option.
