Apex Web Page "404 Not Found" Error
I just recently got my new Apex up and running and I was able to view the web pages soon after.
Somewhere along the line I started getting a 404 Not Found error and I can't fix it. This happens right after I enter the username and password, so my computer is able to access the Apex server, but it can't find the index page. Does anyone know why this is happening or how I can fix it? - I have already tried to reset the unit back to factory defaults, but that didn't fix the problem. Thanks! |

Try running the uploader and re-upload the web pages.

Are you accessing it using the host name or the IP address? I have seen this when I use the host name on a network not using DHCP. Try the IP address.

Go to Neptune's web site [ http://www.neptunesys.com/index.php?...d=49&Itemid=48 ] and download the latest firmware (v4.02). Open the folder where you saved the downloaded file, unzip it, then browse to the newly-extracted contents. Double-click on the 'readme' file, then follow the instructions therein. |

Re: Apex Web Page "404 Not Found" Error
Did you re-upload the web pages?

When your in the updater program there is an option to update the webpage. Its a seperate update from the main firmware update but done from the same utility. Just make sure that the firmware file points to the 4.02 update. The webpages for 4.02 are different from 4.01 and need to be updated when going to 4.02.

Do you get prompted for credentials, then 404 or a 404 when you try to access the pages?
You mentioned that you changes UN/PW; did you reset the controller after doing this and did you change the UN/PW from the display or the web pages?

error screen - so it seems to recognize that I'm a valid user, but then it kicks out to the 404. I haven't tried a new username/password combo - do you think I should try that? I'm still using the factory defaults... |

Just for S&G... try putting in bad credentials... you should get a 401 instead of a 404.

So, that tells us that it is not a problem with username & password. The other few times I've heard of the symptoms you have, reloading the web pages onto the controller resolved the problem. |

Ah ha! The status.xml is generated on-the-fly by the firmware. The other two are static files uploaded by the web page update process. This problem still "feels" like missing or corrupted files.
In the folder where you extracted the 4.02 firmware zipfile, there should be a subfolder called 'www'. There should be a total of 41 files in there. If that all looks OK, please update the web pages again, and post the output shown in the Flash Utility's log panel. Last edited by RussM; 03/14/2010 at 04:25 PM. |

Oh - I meant to add: FWIW, this was for a brand new out-of-the-box Apex. (In case that helps future searchers!)

Wished this worked for me. Having same issue but cant update web pages. Keep getting error of:
"The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive." Russ... you tried to help me with this before. Any new thoughts? Also above you referenced 41 files in 4.02v how many should I have for 4.11v? Thanks, Mark |
