Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/4673

I've installed using the one-click Windows installer. Desktop application is running, Admin->General Settings->Enable Network Discovery set to true. Accessing localhost:3001 produces a "Not found" message in the browser. NOT an HTTP request error, something is coming from Anything LLM on that port, but I can seem to interact with the chat. What am I doing wrong? Is it just an incorrect endpoint? Do I need to pass in my workspace name, etc...?

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

Are you expecting to see the web-ui? The desktop app does not also cross-serve the web-app in browser on 3001. The only thing you will find on 3001 is going to be the developer API, which you can get to via /api/docs path

Well, yes. "To access the full application, visit http://localhost:3001 in your browser." Is this somehow restricted to Docker?

The desktop app does not cross-serve the web UI to your browser because the desktop UI is more powerful. If you want a web-based experience, you need the Docker container solution - not the desktop app.

To access the full application, visit http://localhost:3001 in your browser.

Where do you see this text?
