We are trialing out the demo version of FOP2 against a Druid OSE 2.0.1 system (that has asterisk 1.4.23 underneath the hood) . Unfortunately we have been unable to login to the fop2 web interface... instead the login page increments through "Connecting to server, attempt number 1" through to "Connecting to server, attempt number 10". After this we get a "Could not connect to server" error message

I have been through the forums and noticed that others have encountered this.
We can confirm that:

• the connection tests ok with

  /usr/local/fop2/fop2_server --test
  Flash Operator Panel 2 - No valid license found. Demo Mode
  Connection to manager OK!

• the extension and password we are using for login is included in the fop2.cfg and within the asterisk configuration

• we are not running FOP1

• fop2 is running

  ps -ef | grep fop
  root     16707     1  0 11:54 ?        00:00:00 /usr/local/fop2/fop2_server -d
  root     17042 13828  0 12:02 pts/0    00:00:00 grep fop

• fop2 has the port 4445

  netstat -npa|grep 4445
  tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:4445                0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      16707/fop2_server

• we have tested the latest version of flash in both Internet Explorer and Firefox

• iptables is not blocking the traffic

• A cutdown version of the fop2.cfg

There is nothing relevant showing up in the asterisk logs. The apache log includes errors relating to missing files (mostly javascript files), but based upon other comments in the forum these will not result in the authentication issues.

Any advice that might point us towards getting fop2 running would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response.

Yes we were able to telnet from the browsing machine.
After trying successfully from another box we rebooted the browsing box and had success from this environment as well (obviously a windows machine).

Sorry to have not attempted this before posting the question.
