Tech Tip: 4D Remote Opens Methods in Read Only on the Same Machine as Server
PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 20 R | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: January 13, 2025
Developers may run into an issue where they are not able to edit methods when using 4D Remote to access a 4D Server on the same machine. If a developer runs into this issue it may mean that 4D did not detect that the server was on the same machine and the methods have been opened in read only mode.
When 4D Server opens a project it creates a "projectToken.json" under "~/Library/Application Support/4D Server/{project_name} on Mac or "C:\Users\{user_name}\AppData\Roaming\4D Server\{project_name}" on Windows
If developers are running into this issue it is recommended to try deleting the "projectToken.json" file. The file will be created again next time the server is started and this may solve the issue.
