Hi, 

I have a clear scada server running in my control room and a client system installed in field. both are in same network, I can ping the server from client machine.

but when i try to access the server by web browser the url failed. what is the issue.

my server  is : 205-OWS-01

ip addres : 192.168.10.65

node: localhost:5481 

node cost : 6

In client machine i have configured the server and used this URL " http://192.168.10.65/webx"

the page is not loading.  

please guide me , or share me links to configure webX  

thank you

I generally find ping to be worthless when dealing with complex networks.  Firewalls will often allow through ICMP (ping) but will then reject TCP port traffic... so I just start with TCPing now (if I know the TCP port in question)

If it works, then both firewalls and ping are likely ok.

If it doesn't, then you either have a firewall problem, or a service problem.

You can run TCPing locally on the server to try to rule out the firewall thing (although some firewalls, like Windows, can be configured to even prevent localhost loopback access).

You should check to make sure that you're using the right port.  Port 80 for a SCADA service is a bit unusual.. for s3curity raisons, people like to put it at a non-standard port number, like 8080 / 8443 if SSL encrypt

There are pretty good help docs already available with the Geo SCADA Expert product.  Have a look through them first (including the Installation PDF on the install media).
