Looks like it is choking on a component from the Reporting Module. Do you have that installed? (Tip: Use the "Preformatted Text" button in this forum's comment editor when pasting plain text, like code or json, or tracebacks. Use the pencil icon under a post to edit it.) ---

I don't think so ![modules](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/4/4/4411f91f0cc5fa681dddc9a8ec6f1120f492d56f.png) ---

Yup, not there. You aren't going to open that resource without the reporting module installed on the gateway. (Followed by a designer restart.) ---

How do I install the reporting module? ---

You have to use the gateway web interface's configuration section. It cannot be installed from the designer. ![20230813_1556_Config_Modules](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/2/2/22d8b830e236ba078ec0ca05141e18d55da603bb.png) Get the right version of the module from Inductive's download archive if you don't have it handy: > **[Archived Ignition Releases | Inductive Automation](https://inductiveautomation.com/downloads/archive/8.1.28)** > > Download and start using the world's most powerful SCADA software in just minutes.
