Unable to log in WFA Server

sanadmin_stadtdo — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:23:58 GMT

I installed on a Windows 2008 R2 server WFA. The Windows firewall is disabled, the ports required by WFA installation are free (according to netstat). Unfortunately I can not log in to the server WFA me, either through the browser, even on localhost/wfa on the WFA Server. The respective window remains white, I'm already not seen the login screen. Powershell 2.0 and .NET Framework are already installed.

An idea where the problem might be?

Can you please check if the WFA services are running.

Go to run command and enter "Services.msc".

In the services can be please check if the two services, as shown in the attached Services.png,

are running?

Could you tell what is the version of WFA that you are trying with ?

Was this a fresh install or an restore ?

I install this version: V2.2.0.2.6

It's a new installation, no restore.

Just try with following URL:

http://host:port/rest/workflows

If you get a response with list of workflows that mean REST services are up.

If you get an error pls share the server log from standalone\log\server.log from installed directory.

@Ranjeet: I understand your post not really. I have no directory "log" in the WFA installation directory. And when I try to access the WFA server with the URL, I only get an empty window.

Or have I misunderstood something? I use the URL http://IP_of_the_wfa_server/rest/workflows.

Here it is:

"Error initializing endpoint: java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind /0.0.0.0:80."

Port is in use already.

Similar issues with JBOSS:

You need to uninstall other applications running in the system where you are trying to install WFA.

Ok, thanks for your information. On Monday I look for the app which needs the same port.

Re: Unable to log in WFA Server

sanadmin_stadtdo — Fri, 28 Nov 2014 10:57:36 GMT

Is it possible to change the port 80 to 81 in the settings ? Or must I re-install the WFA with the new port ?

Re: Unable to log in WFA Server

What is it that keeping port 80 busy for you? If you are not using it for your application, why not kill the task and leave WFA to continue using port 80.

First find out what is that: In a command prompt run :

netstat -ano |findstr /I LISTENING|findstr 80

The left most column will give the PID, use taskkill command to kill it.

Thanks for your help.

I try to kill the two tasks for the PID (http- and https-port) but I don't have the permission to do this.

So I uninstall WFA and try a new installation with port 81 and 444. It works without any problems.
