Testing server issues ... HTTP error code 404 File not found. Here are some possible reasons for the problem:

This is just an update to the thread ... more to follow.

Hi Ray,

I have tried it with both http: and https:

In Chrome the page does show up and I can log in and it works 100%.
It switches it to https: with a warning that you are going to a non secure site. But it still allows me through.

However in both Edge and Firefox I get an address not found Error or having trouble finding the site.
If I user http: then on edge it forces it to www.support.localhost which goes nowhere.

I tried several different versions of the address with no luck reaching the local host on those browsers. Could Chrome handle the address that differently than Edge ad Firefox? But the question would be why does it work in Chrome?

Rays reply was :
Please use the forum to communicate. You may have added a security exception in chrome and Firefox at some point allowing https to work. You can’t do that in dreamweaver. The issue with edge is probably the same as the issue with dreamweaver, so if you solve that then it will fix dreamweaver as well.

My apologies for that one. I had thought that a reply email updates the forum. My mistake. Moving on from this ...
