Invalid response from server

Certain operations in the Interactive Update Provider Web interface result in a request being sent from the browser to the server. When a request does not reach the server as expected, Interactive Update displays the following error message:

There can be several reasons why this error occurred, anywhere from network configuration to a browser security settings issue, due to recently tightened browser security settings. In most circumstances, adding http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 to the Local Intranet zone resolves the issue.

To add this setting in Internet Explorer:

1. In the Tools menu, select Internet Options.

2. Select the Security tab and click the Local intranet Sites button.

3. In the Local intranet dialog, click the Advanced button.

4. In the Add this website to the zone text box, enter http://127.0.0. and click the Add button.

   The added web site appears in the Websites text box.

   

5. Close the dialogs and restart the browser for the settings to take effect.
