I just installed Board v14, and when I open Board it pops up the log in screen, after entering my credentials it stars in a loop that never ends, if I downgrade to v12.6 everything turns to normal, any thoughts about it?

    Hi @Julian Gomez ,

    The http protocol will work only for localhost. If you are using a different host value other than localhost then you need to use a certificate (HTTPS protocol) to access the Board Web Platform.

    Hi @Julian Gomez,

    Are you using the IIS or the WebAPI? Are you using the http protocol or the https protocol? cause the http protocol is no longer used unless you are using "localhost".

    Thanks Samson, we´re using WebAPI and we don't have HTTPS, is it because of the HTTPS certificate?

  • Hi Julian,

    Do you observer the same behavior if you use the browser in incognito mode?

    Are you using the latest B14.1 version?

    Hi @Fethi ZERARA

    We found this issue is because of the HTTPS certificate not installed, for Board version 14 this certificate is mandatory and the only way to use Board without it is just as localhost. If you´re using it as localhost and you´re facing the same issue just validate that the "appSettings" config file (C:\Program Files (x86)\Board\Board WebApi Server\App_Data\config) has localhost set.

    I hope this is useful.
