IDE startup and HTTP 404 http://localhost:8080/ [message #1781339]

Hi,

after updating my local git repo I'm unable to access the runtime.
Im getting:

HTTP ERROR 404

Problem accessing /. Reason:

ProxyServlet: /

Powered by Jetty:// 9.3.15.v20161220

I did install eclipse smarthome from scratch, but the error persists.

Any Idea what happens (Or how to fix it?)?

That's because nothing is registered on "/". So all is good, you _are_ successfully accessing the runtime :-)

Try something which exists, e.g. http://localhost:8080/basicui/app or http://localhost:8080/rest/

Is this
* a bug in the source code
* or in the documentation of the IDE setup
* or something completely different?

Because everyone starting with smarthome may fall also into this gap?

I would claim that it is correctly documented as (11) on https://www.eclipse.org/smarthome/documentation/development/ide.html.
There simply is nothing like a "welcome screen" or "dashboard" in Eclipse SmartHome as this is something that will anyhow be solution specific.

But I fully see your point: Most users will try to access http://localhost:8080/ and wonder, why it isn't working. I have to admit that I myself often access it and then have to manually type the url that I actually want to access.
I'd therefore created https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/issues/5052 in which this issue should be addressed.

With PR https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/pull/5058 we have now implemented a feature that http://localhost:8080 shows a default index website that redirects the developer to some UIs. So the starting ESH from the IDE with the new runconfiguration already shows that page.
