Mobile App login

I’m having an issue with the Mobile login app. I have installed the Application password plugin. I go to log into my site via the Mobile app and it gives me a 404 error, web site not found. I’m using my WordPress login info. Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong?

Is there something I need to setup for the Application password plug in? I can’t located in my WordPress panel. Thanks for the help.

Hi Paul,

No setup is needed with the Application passwords plugin, but it can be used to set up additional passwords that work only for the application:

Since you’re getting a 404 error, the way forward will be to go through the troubleshooting checklist from the mobile app documentation:

Ok, I’ve checked all of the troubleshooting points. I’ve disabled my firewall just in case. Still receiving 401 errors. When I enter the URL, should I be entering the basic website URL? In this case it would be “mahightix.com”. Or, should I enter the URL for the specific event? I’ve done both with no change. Just trying to eliminate the different options. Thanks.

Hi Paul,

Are you getting 404 or 401 errors? Where do you see these?

When I enter the URL, should I be entering the basic website URL? In this case it would be “mahightix.com”.

You’ll want www.mahightix.com for the website URL.

Which version number of the app are you using?

It’s a 404 error. Sorry about that. The app version is 1.6.4. Thanks for the help on this.

Not sure if this helps you or not. I’m using Wordfence for my firewall. I did disable the firewall and still get the same result, “Sorry, can’t log in 404- not found” error. Hope this helps.

Your site uses EE4 but it sound slike your using the EE3 apps.

I’m not sure if your using the Android or iOS apps (based on the version number I suspect iOS) but it should be either one of these:

iOS – https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=1095432613&mt=8

Android – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eventespressohd.android

Well, you were right about the app. It looks like it’s talking to the server now. When I go to login, I’m getting this error message:

Error Occourred

The server was acting as a gateway or proxy and received an invalid response from the upstream server.

What do you think it is? Thanks again for the help.

Hi Paul,

Usually that error is caused by a mistype in the URL field.

It’s working Josh. Figured out I was using the wrong password. The combination of getting the right app with the right info worked. Thanks for the support on this. I really appreciate it.
