Problem

When I try to open a project that has been uploaded to the application server, the Select Project list is empty. Also, when I upload the project to the application server, I get the following error:

Access denied. Contact your Administrator.

The URL of the application server is specified as "http://localhost" or "http://127.0.0.1".
In Connection Settings, Application Server Credentials> Define Authentication Parameters is selected. The specified user has the appropriate permissions.

Cause

This is a known phenomenon. If "http://localhost" or "http://127.0.0.1" is specified as the URL of the application server, the setting in "Connection settings" will be ignored. Windows authentication is used.

Solution

Specify the URL of the application server as "http://<server name>". <Server name> is the network name of the computer on which the application server is installed.
