I tried to open the admin console from my Mac and it had disappeared from my menu. I have continued to try using online instructions. Have I failed to pay some fee? If so, to whm and how?

That’s likely a macOS issue. Apple removed support for Java recently.

It is near certainty that it is a Mac issue. I lost mine a month or so ago. As far as I know, one must now use the eisy-ui.

My brother was having problems with the AC on his Mac, I suggest updating to get eisyUI.

In short the update failed, eisyUI won't start and no signs of a web server. SSH does work fortunately.

He has submitted a ticket, awaiting response.

Java 8 continues to work fine on the latest macOS Golden Gate on Apple Silicon (M series).

Uninstall any existing version of Java and download the latest Java for macOS Arm64 from here

I saw the comment about Network Resources coming soon, thanks. But what is the plan for Web Server file transfers. Thanks

NR is already implemented, although requires fixes, in the next release.

Web Server is legacy, and using default conflicts with eisy-ui. We had not planned on migrating this feature, files can still be added via ssh.

What is the use case?

@Javi My non-standard undocumented node server built in 2016 is a cllent of an eternal web server on a raspberry pi. I believe this is working as of now, based on http return codes I have looked at. If this is going away I can probably substitute REST commands and network resources but it would be good to know. It's a nice feature to have.

Are you sure this is the same Web Server? Admin Console > Configuration > Networking > Web Server

@Javi You are right, it's very different. There is an external web service that is consumed as a client by IoX. Configured (host name = ip address and user/ password/Port) via AC>Plugins>Plugin Configuration. I am pretty sure these parameters can be entered via REST also.

I have a whole dashboard that is hosted on the web server. I needed to host it there to avoid cross domain scripting errors. I don't mind if it moves to another port, but I would really like it to remain viable. http://192.168.3.14:8080/USER/WEB/HV2.htm#

I tried to access the files by SSH which I think are in the /var/isy/files/user/web directory but I got stopped with permission errors at the /isy directory level.

So if there is not going to be an option to manage the user/web files in eisy-ui, how are they accessed using ssh?

Start by doing: sudo sh and enter the admin password. This puts you in superuser mode, and can go anywhere.
