nagaraj_s,

Architecturally, the app will only work from the Web Reports server. The reason is because it is a client-side JavaScript application. If not hosted on the server that you are accessing, that is known as cross-site scripting and won’t be allowed.

This app was superceded by Brick, which is a server side application.

Did you see the new app or you were specifically interested in the Computer Browser because it is read-only?

Computer Browser application error contacting server. Status code: 405

Hi all, I’m totally new to this community. :smile:
I’m using BigFix since a couple of years and I recently discovered the Computer Browser application… and decided to test it.
I copied all files as indicated and the I can see the home screen, but I can’t log in since I get the following error: "Error contacting server. Status code: 405"
Welll… some details…
I first tried to use the page “https://my-server/computerbrowser/computerbrowser.html” (since my WebReports can be reached at both “https://my-server/” or “https://my-server/webreports”) without success… I’m still getting this error: "404 – Not Found"
Then I tried with “https://my-server:52311/computerbrowser/computerbrowser.html” and this page definitely loads successfully, but I have to log in… and I can’t cause I get the error above.

Please note that I’m using IEM v9.1.1117 and on my console I can log in using both “my-server” or “my-server:52311”, while I can reach the WebReports only at “https://my-server/” and not at “https://my-server:52311” (I get the same error: “404 – Not Found”)

I hope this info are enough to have some help from you :smile:

Thanks a lot in advance for any assistance

Hey Frank, any reason you’re trying to look at computer browser rather than Bricks (which I think is the latest version):

However someone already helped me to solve the problem. I didn’t pay attention and copied the files in the wrong directory :frowning:
