Hello,

I am currently working on getting "Web AppBuilder for Developers" setup on my machine and am stuck in a loop I cannot get out of.

When on the step prompting for a "App ID" I enter the needed "App ID" and then am sent back to the page where you enter your portals url.

I have tried many different configurations for the re-direct url as well as playing around with the "allow origins" tab on the security page with no luck.  In the command prompt I keep getting the following messgaes: "No token is found, redirect /webappbuilder" and "express deprecated req.param(name): Use req.params, req.body, or req.query instead rest\signininfo.js:1:1311"

Any insight at all would be super appreciated.

Thanks!

Pat,

  Make sure you close the CMD prompt window if you have not done so already and navigate to the WAB install dir\server directory and delete the signininfo.json file (don't worry about backing it up or anything, this is an auto generated file). Then re-launch WAB Dev (by double clicking the startup.bat). After this you should be able to break free from the loop. The big thing to remember is that the portal url you use in the prompt that comes up use http as the protocol if you need to have WAB in http protocol or https if your web server can use https.

Robert,

I have been deleting the signininfo.json file but with no luck... been sure to use https to match my portal. At a complete loss for what is going on.

Delete the whole WAB install directory and start again with a fresh download of WAB Dev from the website them.

Hey Pat,

Please check with your self-signed certificate. And see if you have a valid a self-signed certificate and replace two files in the server directory: cakey.pem and cacert.pem.
