Hi,

 

 

The data download service on our FME server has started to return URLs with http://localhost:8080 instead of the server name. I can correct the URL in my app, but I'd rather get the service to return a correct URL.

 

 

I remember seeing an article about how to change the download URLs back for Server 2012 but I can't find it now. Where do I find the settings for changing the URL?

 

(I've already tried changing the URL pattern in the services settings).

 

 

Thanks!

Hi AndyE,

 

In the WebUI for FME Server go to the Services page then click on Data Download. You can change the "URL Pattern" there.  I think that should do it.

Hi Ken,

 

 

Tracked the issue down to a missed step in setting up IIS as a reverse proxy, we hadn't set the ResultPrefix in the engine config files:

All is now well!
