Topic: local ontoserver connection to Snapper
Manik Chopra (Apr 22 2020 at 04:05):
Hi Guys. Any thoughts how to point Snapper to local instance of Ontoserver (running as a docker image in Windows 10 laptop)? Ontoserver is running successfully and I can hit the endpoint https://localhost:8443/fhir/CodeSystem. But when I attempt to change Settings in Snapper to point it to this local Ontoserver - it says "Server unavailable/not detected"

is there any documentation I can read?

The endpoint you should use in this case is https://localhost:8443/fhir
Manik Chopra (Apr 22 2020 at 07:00):
Yes @Michael Lawley , I used the same endpoint.

is there any rules around firewalls that may be preventing Snapper to connect?

The browser may not love the self-signed certificate
Michael Lawley (Apr 23 2020 at 04:00):
Yes, that is something that browsers have become a lot more picky about.
The trick is to visit https://localhost:8443/fhir/metadata in your browser to trigger the "found an untrusted site" warning, then work through the UI steps to "really visit this page". Then your browser will remember that you trust this particular self-signed certificate and Snapper will work.
