'no-project' When Opening Any View

Ignition
,
1

I am dealing with an issue in our test environment where any view I attempt to open in the Designer just gives a message in the editor window of ‘no-project’.

Some quick facts:

  • This does not occur in the same project in our development environment using the same user source
  • This does not occur for any other user accessing that project in our test environment
  • I am on version 8.1.48 on both gateways

I have tried to use a freshly created view but still cannot open that. Tried deleting the cache in the .ignition directory. Tried downgrading from 1.3.0-beta2 launcher version to 1.1.48.

I am beginning to run out of ideas here. Clearly the problem is localized to my computer, just not sure what else to try here… any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like AV interfering with the JxBrowser's Chrome process.

Any JxBrowser errors in your wrapper log? Common for the AV to not allow the unpacking of the JxBrowser's library.

Not sure why it would only affect me in that case because we are all on company computers with pretty regular updates from IT, but I’ll look into it.

I checked the protection history on Windows Security, and I didn’t see anything listed. I’ll check the logs for Windows Defender and the wrapper log and let you know.

My computer has a Window's policy maintained by our IT that prevented the files to unpack (@pturmel I know I know)

It was easier for me to just take the unpacked files for the correct JxBrowser version from my personal computer and put them on my development Gateway on my work PC :laughing:

TL;DR I was using the load balancer instead of the actual gateway server… :man_facepalming:

The problem was much dumber than any of you could’ve anticipated. Someone sent a screenshot of a perspective session in the browser in the test environment with an error. So when I went to look at it (connecting to the server for the first time) I just grabbed the server name off the beginning of the URL and plugged it into the Designer Launcher with no issue.

Still learning some of the naming scheme here, but it turns out I was using the load balancer I did not know we had set up in test. Strangely didn’t have any issue grabbing the project name or structure when I was playing around with it but gave issue when trying to open anything.

Now I have the true gateway server plugged into the launcher and it’s smooth sailing.

Thanks for your help regardless.

Sounds like something that would definitely happen on a Friday!
