The /EnableTableEndpoint commandline parameter no longer works

Dinant van Harmelen 0

A few years ago we build an application that used CosmosDB and for local integration testing we used the CosmosDB emulator. We want to make some changes to the application, but found that it now is impossible to get the Table Endpoint to run in the Emulator. We use the following command line parameters to start the emulator:

/NoExplorer /DisableRateLimiting /EnableTableEndpoint

The Emulator starts with the SQL API enabled, However the default Table API connection string (that used to work) can no longer connect to the table api endpoint since it is not running:

"DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=localhost;AccountKey=C2y6yDjf5/R+ob0N8A7Cgv30VRDJIWEHLM+4QDU5DE2nQ9nDuVTqobD4b8mGGyPMbIZnqyMsEcaGQy67XIw/Jw==;TableEndpoint=http://localhost:8902/;"

Both http & https urls do not work.
http://localhost:8902/
https://localhost:8902/

User's image According to the online documentation this should still work in the newest version of the emulator.

How do we get the Table API to run again?

Hi @Dinant van Harmelen

Thanks for the Question and using Microsoft Q&A platform.

As per my understanding, you are facing an issue while connecting table Endpoint to run the Emulator by using command line parameters to start the emulator.

As per my Analysis:

This is most likely related to how your server is set up, as long as you've entered the correct IP address and your device is on the same network.

Try accessing the server from your Server to completely rule out any issues related to the network or server configuration.

There might be a firewall or antivirus issue. It could be helpful to temporarily disable them to check if it resolves the problem. If it does, you can add exceptions as needed.

It could be an ip4/ip6 issue. If you are using localhost then try the code below and see what you get back.

import "dart:io"; main() { InternetAddress.lookup("localhost").then((a) => a.forEach(print));

Please see the below link which may helpful for resolving the issue.

Thx for commenting, but no this did not help.

To clarify we are running a C# .Net 8.0 unit test project locally against the emulator (same windows machine) not ruby / android against a remote server.
Also according to the documentation all certificates and firewall settings should be automatically installed:

We've verified this and it's working are you passing TablePort as a parameter anywhere?
