Dear all,

I have wincc V6.0 SP2 and its web navigator V6.1 SP1. These versions are working properly with windows XP. I tried to connect to the wincc application through a new PC with Windows 7. The software was installed successfully (Web Navigator + Basic Process Control) but I could not connect to the server. The message "Connecting to server" keeps appearing and the internet explorer hangs.

Can any one help me in this issue? Is the web navigator not compatible with Windows 7 ?

Thanks

Hello yac,
just see this faq.
Which operating system and software do you require for the SIMATIC WinCC Web Navigator V1.x, V6.x and V7.x?

So i think Web Navigator v6.1 SP1  isn´t compatible with Windows 7.

Best regards
Bilao

Dear Bilao,

Thanks for your reply. I cannot understand the reason although the internet explorer version for both WinXP and Win7 is the same (version 8) and I use the Windows 7  as 32bit, the web client is not working. Is there any settings in the windows 7 that I can make in order to be similar to XP?

Best regards

Dear all,
Unsuitability between WinCC Webnavigator and Windows 7 causing  from ISS structure and version not from Internet Explorer.Please check the ISS version in both XP and Win7.

I am running wincc 6.2 web navigator but on the windows 7 machines i had to load the client from wincc 7 and it does work . We were running wincc 6.2 on windows 2003 server and upgraded our pc's to windows 7 , we are still running the wincc 6.2 on the 2003 server I just needed to install the wincc 7.0 client on the windows 7 machines for the internet explorer to function and have not had any problems with it as of yet and this setup has been running for about 6 months
Regards
