Explanation

When the website for Bentley Transmittal Server was setup, the bindings were incorrectly set.

How to Avoid

Open IIS and ensure that the net.tcp and net.pipe bindings for the Bentley Transmittal Server website are set correctly.

1. For the net.tcp binding, enter the number of an open port, followed by a colon (:), followed by an asterisk (*).
For example, 8086:*
2. For the net.pipe binding, enter just an asterix (*)
3. Click OK and close the Site Bindings dialog.
4. From an administrative command prompt, type IISRESET and press enter.
5. Once IISRESET is done, re-run the Server Deployment
