<![CDATA[Web console installation]]>I am trying to run the latest (3.5.90) WebApp on Ubuntu 20.04 with Jetty but get this when I browse to the URL.  Have tried different versions of Java and also tried Tomcat as well.  What have I missed?  Thanks.

Normally none of these is set. Could be that something changed after you launched the web api on that server.

Web console uses it as one of the options for situations when web console in installed on another machine. See here:

!MESSAGE Server address resolved from NETXMS_SERVER: x.x.x.x

The address being returned is not the address of itself but for the @ record for the machine's domain, which in this case is a public address.  What is it trying to resolve to get that?  As far as I can tell /etc/hosts and DNS are set up correctly.

 /var/lib/tomcat9/work/Catalina/localhost/nxmc/eclipse/workspace/.metadata

Try deleting tomcat workspace:
stop tomcat process
delete /var/lib/tomcat9/work folder
start tomcat again

Just tried your installation sequence on fresh ubuntu 20.04, nxmc correctly opens on port 8080

Best regards,

looks like you've deployed web API instead of web interface (GUI application). You have to deploy this war file: https://netxms.org/download/releases/3.5/nxmc-3.5.90.war

Best regards,
Victor
