The default behavior for the Web Client Framework does not allow mixed protocols. For example, if the server on which you install the Developer uses http protocol behind a reverse proxy using http and the client comes from the outside through https, or, the Developer server and the reverse proxy are https and the client is http, the user will receive an AddressFilter mismatch error when attempting to log in. You can edit the configuration to allow mixed protocols.

 

ProcedureTo allow mixed protocols:

  1. Locate the web.config file in the Repository.WCF folder in the folder where the Developer is installed on the server.
     
  2. Open the web.config file in any text editor.
     
  3. Search for the following tag:
     
    <addressFilter filterMode="Exact"/>
     
  4. Edit the tag as follows:
     
    <addressFilter filterMode="Any"/>
     
  5. This tag appears twice in the file. Search for the second tag and repeat step 4.
     
  6. Save and close the web.config file.
