Default FlexSim web server API details

I see that FlexSim v6 has a web server component that provides remote control ability through a browser. Each button click provides the ability to open, close, run and stop the models. Is there any documentation that can provide more details of the commands that can be used?

Also is there any documentation for the Xml model schema?

Regards

You could try checking that nothing else is on port 80 (eg. Skype) using netstat.

The webserver is wherever you are running it.

127.0.0.1 is how you access the computer you are running (localhost). If you are connecting to the webserver from the computer that it is running on, then you can use that ip address. Otherwise, you need to connect to it via the server's ip address.
