Procoding for OSX preview issue on certain computers

[audiocommander]

I has been brought to my attention that the built in web server preview in Procoding for OSX is not working on some (mostly laptop) computers, probably due to a recent operation system update. I temporarily pulled the OSX version from the app store and am working high priority on finding a fix. Will keep you updated. Sorry for any inconvenience.

The issue in detail:
– the preview files are saved correctly and can be viewed via file:///Users/<yourusername>/Library/Containers/de.audiocommander.procoding/Data/Library/Caches/de.audiocommander.procoding/~TemporaryItems/Previews/index.html
– the preview files via localhost:8080, 127.0.0.1:8080, IP-address:8080 or bonjour-address:8080 are broken and denied by the system with a 405 code
– the error is not appearing on every computer. I can reproduce this behaviour only on my MacBook Air. It is not reproducible on a Mac Mini. All systems run Mac OS Sierra, latest version and are in the same network

Procoding for iOS doesn’t seem to be affected.

Temporary workaround:
– Go to Procoding > Preferences and deactivate “Web Server Preview”. Note that (unfortunately), this will break processingjs loading mechanisms, but all other JS based document types will preview again.

I found the issue. It only happens on older/slower computers. A fix will be submitted within the next days (probably on this weekend).

Procoding for Mac is updated and will be available on the Mac App Store within the next 24 hours.
