ProppFrexx ONAIR User-Forum

Found the the issue: The filename for some reason had two dots after Unsafe "System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe.Unsafe..dll". Not easy to notice, but after renaming and reopening it's now working fine.

Thanks for your assistance! The REST API is a great addition to ProppFrexx.

Yes, the debug does point to a missing file: 31/03/2023 21:33:11: Request JSON deserialize issue: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file sp...

Just as way of an update.
I've upgraded to 4.3.5.1 and sending commends in JSON format still not working and getting the response: "Dispatched remotely" with the commends not carried out. Sending the same command in plain text is fine.

When you specify a different address than the localhost, the Windows operation system might block any requests, due to security issues by default.

No I did not send any commend I was just giving it a first test using curl. I was expecting a auth failure as I did not encode the password. How I know about the base64 and command sub address I will give it another go.

Thanks for your help.

What URL did you try? When you want to enable https - you need to register an official certificate with your Windows system and bind that to your given port address. I cannot provide that for you. If you don’t know how to do this, you need to ask your administrator. However, note, that https is l m...

May I ask more details on the REST API implementation. Do I assume correctly that the information entered into the URL determines the protocol(http or https), domain and port that needs to be used to access the API? The reason I ask is that the REST API does not enable if anything other than the def...

In regards to user login. I'm thinking of going down the route of using ProppFrexx built-in user login and just allow ProppFrexx to send a commend after successful login to our API to auto login the user. I believe ${username} , ${password} and ${stationname} can be used if needed to validate if the...

I'll take a look at an auto login using ${username} , ${password} and ${stationname}
