@rds Do you see same behavior when you open URL http://localhost:3000/home in Chrome browser ?

@rds From the error it seems to be issue with environment variable or user profile who launched the installer.

 

[05/28/2018 10:00:22] error: [twx-studio:index] uncaughtException Error: HOME directory does not exist. Environment variable HOME=C:\Program Files\LFM Software\LFM\home Fix the env variable and relaunch studio.

 

Could you please retry Installation by right click on installer and doing "Run as Administrator". Also, Delete the files under <user home>\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\ and re-install the studio exe file.
The AppData directory is an hidden directory, make sure to enable 'view hidden files' windows configuration.

Capture 2.JPGHi Durgesh,

 

Thanks for your reply. I tried doing what you suggested and I also recruited the help of my IT department but still no luck. For some reason the installer is looking for a "home" folder in the LFM software directory. We manually created this folder (not understanding why) and the installer progressed past the previous sticking point. I clicked the Open button and it opened an IE window with address http://localhost:3000/ but all it's just a blank page and nothing happens. See screenshots I've attached and log.
