Client cannot connect to Server after changing Symphony to a non-standard port

Scenario

1. Changed Symphony BasePort to 40000 by adding the following information to Manual Configuration Editor:

   Type: Server
   Section: Main
   ID: 5000
   Key: BasePort
   Value: 40000 
   

   

2. Restarted services and rebooted machine.
3. Checked Web client with IE: http://localhost:40000. Result: connects to Server.
4. Tried to connect with Symphony Client by connecting to "localhost:40000", "localhost", "127.0.0.1:40000", ...
   Result: cannot connect to Server.

Solution

• BasePort is for the Web.
• BasePort+1 is for the Web service. Symphony Client connects to the Web service.

Using the scenario, user should have registered the server as "127.0.0.1:40001" and not "127.0.0.1:40000"in Symphony Client.
