After working well for about a day with FMS 14 just installed, neither an iPhone nor iPad FMGo 14 can "see" the local FMS 14 server after doing the update to Server 14.0.2.226. This means that the "pushpinned" file in the Recent panel won't open, and the server does not show up in Hosts in order to open the file manually.FMGo 13.0.9 on the same two devices DOES see the FMS 14 server, and will connect the file and use it normally. After successfully trying this and closing the file, FMGo 14 was tried again, and still could not "see" the server.
Rebooting the device, and force-quitting the app does not solve the problem.
Although it not 100% certain, I believe the problem surfaced right after updating FMS from 14.0.1 to 14.0.2.
Steps to reproduce the problem
Try FMGo 14.0.2 with a file hosted on FMS 14.0.1 and verify that it works.Update FMS to 14.0.2.226
Try FMGo 14 again, attempting to open the file from Recent. It appears to start, it says "Opening files" but then a box comes up that says...
Error
The file "Conservatory.fmp12" could not be opened. Either the host is not available, or the file is not available on that host.
Then, try to see if the FMS host is listed in the Hosts panel. At first it says first it says "Waiting for response..." then finally "No files available".
To show that FMS 14 is not just out of reach, try the same test with FMGo 13.0.9, and the file can be opened, and the server does show in the Hosts panel.
Expected result
Choosing the file from Recent should open the file from the server.Looking at the Hosts panel should show the FMS 14 server.
Actual result
The file cannot be opened.The FMS 14 server does not show in the Hosts panel.
