Can't read swagger JSON from http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v2/api_docs

Miscellaneous

I just installed Dreamfactory 2.0.4 on my Mac OSX 10.11.3. I was able to successfully connect to our SQL database and i can see the records.

However, I can’t seem to get the Swagger docs to work. When I click on the API Docs tab from the admin console, i get the following error:

Can’t read swagger JSON from http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v2/api_docs

There aren’t any obvious problems in the
apps/dreamfactory/htdocs/storage/logs/dreamfactory.log file

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

On a whim, i tried Google Chrome and it worked.

Retried again with Safari and it gets the same error.

Hopefully this will help someone else.

@schwame Can you try flushing the browser cache in Safari and going to the config tab in DF and flushing the system-cache? Do a refresh of the browser page and see if the Swagger docs are available?

@mattschaer - Before I had restarted everything, I did clear my safari cache. That alone did not solve the problem. When I restarted dreamfactory a few hours later, it did work. I assume it was the combination of the dreamfactory restart - which I assume flushed the system-cache, and the clearing of the safari cache.

Thanks again

Same error in a fresh install

{“schemaValidationMessages”:[{“level”:“error”,“message”:“Can’t read from file http://54.157.1.12/api/v2/api_docs”}]}

rebootand fush cache

Any idea

@jmontes - Mine was on a fresh install also. I emptied my safari caches. Shut down DreamFactory entirely… and then (for me a few hours later), I restarted DF and everything worked.

That being said, Chrome worked for me the entire time.

Sometimes using 127.0.0.1 vs. localhost will cause this. Usually resolved by flushing system and browser cache.

flushing system and cache dont solve anything

I was trying with a fresh instalation and the same error

I am getting the same error on a bitnami fresh install.

Admin Application Version: 2.1.3

DreamFactory Version: 2.1.0

I originally installed the 2.0 bitnami version and follow the upgrade instructions, but I get the same result as the updated 2.1 bitnami dreamfactory install.

Let me know if there is any log information that would be helpful in troubleshooting.

Same here. Fresh Bitnami 2.1 install.

Hi

I install v8js in php-cli and the error disaper

12

Hi jmontes,

I tried installing both v8js and php-cli and I am still getting the error.

Are you using bitnami?
Did you get the error on upgrade or fresh install?
Were there any special steps for installing v8js and php-cli?

Thanks,
Nick
