Under the Manage Default Settings tab for Records Center Configuration, I keep on getting the error "The Web Application at http://localhost could not be found"

 

I have installed laserfiche in same machine and the link for web access is also working. But still I keep on getting the same error.

The Records Center Configuration defaults to localhost as the SharePoint server. To change this, you must specify the the SharePoint server in the web.config file, which is located under C:\Program Files\Laserfiche\SharePoint Integration\LFSPRCConfigWebApp by default.

 

In the web.config file, your appSettings node is probably blank, like so:

<appSettings />

Add in the key SharePointServer like so (since you are on port 90):

  <appSettings>
<add key="SharePointServer" value="localhost:90" />
</appSettings>

Sorry this was not in the documentation. I will see about getting that updated.

It's probably a problem similar to https://answers.laserfiche.com/questions/57116/Web-Access-not-working-in-SharePoint-2013-server.  SharePoint is probably running on port 80, which means that the site the configuration application was installed to is assigned to another port and may not be running.

Brain,

 

SharePoint is running on port 90. LF Web Access is running on default port 80. The URL for LF Web Access is working fine.

 

The challenge is when I try to configure Records Center Configuration, it throws me an error "The Web Application at http://localhost could not be found", which actually is not correct.

Ah, sorry.  I didn't understand that this was an error that was reported by the Configuration site, I thought it was something your browser was telling you.

If your error looks like this:

 

Then the error is caused by issues communication with the SharePoint server, not Web Access.

Brianna,

 

Yes, I am getting similar error.

 

SharePoint site is running just fine. But for my server, LF Web Access is running on default port (port 80) and SharePoint site is running on Port 90.

 

Is this the cause for above mentioned error?

Brianna,

 

Thanks for your advice, the error has been resolved.

 

Here is the before and after scenario:

 

Before:

SharePoint was using port 90 and LF Web products were using the default port (80). So the Records Center Configuration defaults to localhost as the SharePoint server.

 

After:

So, I had to re-install SharePoint on port 80 and LF Web products on port 81. And after that the Records Center Configuration was completed without any error.
