The Essential Project Forum

When trying to start/open essential viewer, by running start.bat I get the following error :
installation is somehow finished (and viewer is running, but the several components seem not to be installed, so I'm getting other errors (probably file/directory missing) using the app. (example :

Can you open Tomcat and see if the viewer is showing and running OK from Tomcat's perspective

1) Put http://localhost:8080/manager/html in the url
The username/password is usually [email protected]/admin when you first install. (it may be admin/admin)

2) Can you see essential_viewer in the applications? Is it running? what happens if you click essential_viewer?

Thanks

Hi boumako,

It sounds like some files which don't belong in Essential Open Source have made it into the release. These files may be source of the issue.

I'll take a look at get back to you on this.

Cheers
