Cannot get designer to launch when gateway is setup to use non-standard SSL port port 8042 - Ignition Edge - Designer won’t start - socket timeout error port 8043 - Ignition Full - Designer works fine port 8044 - Ignition Full - Designer won’t start - socket timeout error All on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS All 7.9.3 Can navigate to gateway via SSL on all. Bug, configuration, or ID-10-T issue??? ---

Once you configure SSL on 8044 do you download a new JNLP file before you try to launch? ---

Yes, I have downloaded many JNLPs from the gateway since changing the ssl port… I have also tried the client launcher and get the following in its log: ERROR [GatewayConfigPanel] [05:14:14,403]: PingWorker: Caught Exception: java.net.SocketException: Unexpected end of file from server at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.parseHTTPHeader(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.parseHTTP(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.parseHTTPHeader(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.parseHTTP(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream0(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at java.net.HttpURLConnection.getResponseCode(Unknown Source) at com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.nativelaunch.util.GatewayCommUtil.getGatewayConnection(GatewayCommUtil.java:96) at com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.nativelaunch.util.GatewayCommUtil.getGatewayRawResponse(GatewayCommUtil.java:126) at com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.nativelaunch.util.GatewayCommUtil.pingGateway(GatewayCommUtil.java:152) at com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.nativelaunch.ui.GatewayConfigPanel$PingWorker.doInBackground(GatewayConfigPanel.java:1624) at com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.nativelaunch.ui.GatewayConfigPanel$PingWorker.doInBackground(GatewayConfigPanel.java:1608) at javax.swing.SwingWorker$1.call(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.SwingWorker.run(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) ERROR [GatewayConfigPanel] [05:14:14,408]: Gateway did not return a status of RUNNING: Unexpected end of file from server ---

A bit more information… All works fine when I try to run the designer from a computer on the same network as the Ignition server. The failures only occur when the connection is going through a router. I have three Ignition servers and am using 3 different SSL ports. The server using 8043 works fine, the other two (8042 and 8044) fail. ---

Ignition uses both SSL and non-SSL ports when in SSL mode. You’ll have to change the non-ssl port for the two other servers and make sure they pinhole through your router, too.
