no server connection TIA-Updater/TIA-Administrator/Server Configuration Tool

read C:\Program Files\Siemens\Automation\TIAADMIN\README.txt

In oder to start TIA Administrator Server and see all debug messages (server ont run),
start two scripts:

C:\Program Files\Siemens\Automation\TIAADMIN
1. start_server.cmd
2. start_chrome.cmd or start_firefox.cmd

if see message: "File not found"
Enter next local adress

https://localhost:8888/

for create password for your login

PowerShell (Admin) (CMD window in Admin mode)

for view users type command

net users

for set password for user type command
net useryour_login your_password

I will add to what @Simaticov said

Lunch the server manually from 

C:\Program Files\Siemens\Automation\TIAADMIN
by  start_server.cmd

when the server runs it will create an html file in C:\ProgramData\Siemens\Automation\TiaAdmin

the file name isTiaAdmin_xxxx.html with xxxx is your windows name

excute TiaAdmin_xxxx.html file and you will have your TIA Adminstrator opened 

Not to mention like you started the server manually you should stop it manually from
C:\Program Files\Siemens\Automation\TIAADMIN
by  stop_server.cmd

the https://localhost:8888/ didn't work for me, but https://localhost:51987/ worked perfectly 
I don't know why, but it worked.

Hi, i got some problem too with Tia Administrator or in general with the updater.

I had read all the post and i can log in into TIA Administrator but once i try to download something, like language pack or support package it says "can't reach the server".

My softwares are: Tia V17, Tia v14 full updated, Win 10, and i'm from IT.

I already updated Tia Administrator, Tia Update to the latest version but still not working.

Can someone help me?

Hi,

I had the same problem with TIA V17 and Windows 10 FR. I updated my TIA ADMINASTOR (link : https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/114358 ) and now it's running .

TIA admin is awfull... That never works.

Depends on windows , depends on explorer, depends on werather and so...

Please provide TIA Updater Back!!

(Using Windows 11, Admin V2)
