Unable to connect to EMS on Win7

Anybody see the obvious in what I am missing here?

I start WSEMS on my Windows 7 machine with loglevel turned on to VERBOSE

 

It uses the following config.json (sensitive fields xxxxx’ed) and the websocket connects and is open up to the cloud platform.

{

                "ws_servers":     [{

                                              "host":  "xxxxx.cloud.thingworx.com",

                                              "port":   443

                               }],

                "ws_connection":             {

                               "encryption":      "ssl",

                               "verbose":           true

                },

                "certificates":     {

                               "validate":           false

                },

                "appKey":            "xxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxxxx"

}

 

 

When I try to address the EMS from browser on the same machine as the EMS https://localhost:8000/ThingWorx/Things

 

Connection is refused and I see the following in the wsems trace:

 

[AUDIT] 2015-12-10 15:04:36,580 SDK: twWs_Connect: Websocket connected!     <<-- Next two lines show the websocket connected (EMS is running)

...

 

[DEBUG] 2015-12-10 15:04:42,372 TlsStream:: doclose: Disconnecting socket   <<-- Eventually fails and Chrome web browser displays "SSL Connection Error"

 

...

 

Thanks,

Beck, under the certificates section, try adding the 'allow self signed' certificates section. Here is an example snippet:

"certificates":  {

                        "validate":       false,

                        "allow_self_signed": true

                                         },

The connection settings for the websocket (which connects to the ThingWorx server) and the REST API are separate.  The REST API defaults to listening on localhost:8000 as you are using, but it defaults to HTTP not HTTPS.  You can enable HTTPS in config.json.  Look at the "http_server" section.
