Trying to run kolibri browser

Support

Hi everyone,

I’m really excited to be part of this community.
I came across the Kolibri application and downloaded the kolibri-0.18.3-windows-setup.exe for Windows 11 six days ago.

I followed the installation documentation but from some reason, as I click on “Load in Browser” (With “Open Browser when Kolibri Starts” automatically selected), the image on the browser shows no dashboard, except a localhost link displaying “Server is running”.

This first image is from the lower right hand corner around time to load Kolibri

This next image is what I see as I select “Load in Browser”

I’d appreciate help with troubleshooting this please.

Thank you

Hi @Geraldine!

Thank you for reaching out! Could you please confirm that no other applications or local servers, but Kolibri is running on port 8080? Also, confirming which port Kolibri is using, would suffice in resolving the issue. Either way, we want to make sure that Kolibri is being accessed using the right port.

Regards,
Samson

Hi @akolson ,

Thanks for reaching out.

So there is indeed another application on the port, (Apache HTTP Server).

Kolibri is running locally on another port 52736, but its remote port is 8080.

Hi Geraldine,

That could be the reason why; The Apache server might be interfering with the running of Kolibri.
Could you please shut down both Kolibri and Apache serves and restart Kolibri alone? Hopefully that helps? Alternativel, try to run Kolibri using the port 52736. In your case, the url would be http://127.0.0.1:52736 instead of http://127.0.0.1:8080.

Regards,

Samson
