NTWS does not run on Windows 8 - at least partially
« on: April 23, 2013, 01:36:10 AM »
Hello all,

I installed a NettalkWS (6) on two Windows 8 machines. That WS is a combination of SOAP-Server and regular Webserver with a simple FORM with just 2 DropDowns plus a button and a NetWebPage that displays the result of a computation. It is actually meant to run on the machine itself as localhost. One machine is a normal desktop, the other is a tablet.

On both Win8 machines I can call that form and pick a value on each dropdown.

But when I press that button, nothing happens. This page with the results do not appear.

Running that same WS on a XP, Vista or Win7 and accessing this webapp from both Windows 8 machines work normal.

I assume that this might be caused be the local Win8 Firewall. However, what makes me wonder is that the form appears, because.... if it would be a FW issue, I'd expect not even this to be loaded.

I tried some configuration, but did not hit the right one.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Wolfgang

That's weird Wolfgang. 

I have a NT6 webserver running on a Win8 machine with no problems (No SOAP though).

It's been running 24 hours a day for about 3 months. 

If you figure it out, please tell us what you discovered.

Wolfgang  -

 you do not mention the browser and version you are using.

Is there a chance that there is a link to the IE10 error I get (refer to my latest post) ?
