Ok, I must be going crazy or our IT department changed something… I used to be able to open mobile projects on my old iPhone, now on my new one - 6S with latest OS - it downloads the jnlp file and says it can’t open the file. Happens in Chrome and Safari. I am sure this is something stupid I am missing… Anyone?!? Thanks in advance!

Are you launching it from the mobile launch section? If it is hidden you can go to  
`http://yourserver:8088/main/system/mobile`

Bingo, thank you! Somehow I missed the need to direct mobile devices to a different URL, it used to work from the main page I thought… Regardless, I appreciate the help!

Thanks,
