Joomla explorer connection fails

HI, Joomla explorer works connecting to OpenKM installed on the same server as website i.e. http://localhost:8080/OpenKM. But if I attempt to connect to OpenKM thru JE if OpenKM is not stalled to the same server as the website i.e. http://123.123.36.49:8080/OpenKM, the connection fails. If the URL is opened outside JE, the URL (OpenKM) works as expected.

Will JE only work if OpenKm is installed to the same server as the hosting website?

Try ending the url with "/" might be we have some issue building the url

Hi, thanks
Tried your suggestion, although the "/" was entered, the app doesn't save the closing slash "/". After updating and saving the configuration, went back and checked, the "/" wasn't saved. The problem persists JE unable to connect to a server external to the website.

thanks

I have an externally hosted website where I would like to use joomla explorer to connect to openKM on a remote server. For instance, I am not able to connect to openKM if I use a link to my home server from the hosted website. https://123.123.36.49:8080/OpenKM FYI, the same link works from my mobile phone.

I am able to connect in my test environment where the both the website and openKM are hosted on the same server.
https://localhost:8080/OpenKM

thanks again
CE 6.3.5 dev
JE 2.09

Is quite strange you can not connect from desktop but can connect from mobile. You desktop is in the same network of the server ? in this case you should use internal IP rather than public IP. Anyway seems networking issue not OpenKM one.

I forgot to mention if I embed the link: http://123.123.36.49:8080/OpenKM on the hosting website the link works. Only joomla explorer throws a connection error using the same link. Attached are the server logs from the hosting website:

FYI Both the hosting website and the server the link points to are running php 7.0. I'm no expert in this area, is it a problem with php versions?
I don't think its a network issue.
thanks

Hi.
Perform tests from a local machine and also from a local network and also probe from an external server and works well
Conduct the tests with:

openkm-6.3.6
php 5
php7.0.30
php7.1.6-2

joomla3.8.10

I pass a new version of joomla-explorer
