Hi Folks, Having problem’s logging into Designer today after a Java update. Accessing the gateway via its IP on the web browser and clicking Launch designer. Then it prompts me to login. On login attempt in red it says, login failed, please try again. Error message says: GatewayException: connect timed out caused by SocketTimeoutException: connect timed out Ignition v7.9.8 (b2018060714) Java: Oracle Corporation 1.8.0\_181 When trying to launch a client, I am getting an : Error Launching error launching application: HttpResponseException: 404: Project “(Project Name)” does not exist. Only thing I changed today was updating Java when prompted. Version of Java I am now using is Ver. 8\_181 Gateway has not been updated and is on Ver.8\_171 1 of my colleagues has updated Java also and is experiencing the same issue. Few others have not and no problem has arisen. I attempted to delete the java cache on my machine but no joy. Maybe it is as simple as deleting the cache on the gateway side, or updating Java to \_181? Any help would be greatly appreciated. ---
