Open your browser and try to open this URL:
http://{SERVER-IP}:60668
* Replace the {SERVER-IP} with the actual IP or hostname of the server.
Confirm that you can see the MAWi Gateway page:
If not - move to step no.2.
Step 2: Check if the IIS Express is running
If the server is installed on a standard Windows10 PC, please look for the IIS Express icon, in the taskbar and confirm that is running and showing the correct IP/hostname and directed to port 60668, as shown below:
In case the IIS Express is not running, please open this folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Monitors AnyWhere\Common\
And run this script with administrative privileges:
IISExpressDeployServer.bat
.

1- Open the Task Manager and go to the Services tab and search for the 'MAWi IIS Express Server':
2- Right click the service and select Restart.
