Many thanks for your help again but my issue turned out to be different to what i originally thought. After transferring the gateway I had to modify gateway xml file to set "forced secure redirect" to false and then restart ignition service. After that i am able to launch designer and client again.

the procedure was described in the post below:

> This may or may not be the issue, but in some cases it’s possible to have a designer stuck in this situation if your gateway does not have SSL enabled but Force Secure Redirect is enabled. If your gateway does not have SSL enabled (using an http url instead of https) navigate to the Config \> Web Server and see if Force Secure Redirect is enabled. It will look like: If you are in this state, you can either enable SSL temporarily so you can disable Force Secure Redirect before …

I am very glad that every day i keep learning something new thanks to this forum 🙂
