Loading screen in WebApp doesn't stop

[Nicole_Ueberschär]

Hi all,
I have created a webapp with WAB2.4 and uploaded my own animated gif to be showing while loading the app.
While this was working without any problems on localhost it seems not be continuing loading the app and keeps showing my loading screen.

You can see this here: Web App

Any tips how to find out what causes the problem?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Nicole,

I cannot see your web app. Can you link it again?

And when you say localhost, are you running this through the WAB start up bat file or through another method?

Thanks Adrian, the link is updated now. 

I start the WAB with the start up bat file, yes. There the app works fine. But when I open it to the linked webpage it doesn't load the app beyond the loading screen. I already uploaded it twice because I thought there might have been an error during the upload I did yesterday.

Nicole,

  Your app has multiple errors in the console. Seems like you are using a local version of the JS API or something. This is one of the errant urls:

thanks! Will try to figure out where this is coming from... I am not aware of using a local version of the JS API...

Did you change the env.js apiUrl?

Sorry for the late reply, I was too busy on a different project. 

My colleague gave the advise not to use the app files from the server/apps directory but to download the app and then upload the unzipped download to the server (website). This seems to have solved the issue.

Hello Nicole,

It's been a long discussion. Could you tell me exactly how to do it? Thank you.

From the Webapp Developer interface select download for the desired application. Unzip to your favorite destination and upload from here to your server. This insures that all needed files are complete.
