Connecting an RSWA to a TDS server instance should be an easy task. However, sometimes with different network infrastructures and enterprise directives, the communication between TDS and RSWA might be disrupted for a variety of reasons.

Follow the steps below to help diagnose this issue.

Be sure to follow the steps below:

1. Ensure that the file tds-server.json has been updated to contain the port you wish to run TDS on. Visit here to learn how to configure the port.
2. For some versions of TDS, you may also have to update the url field to include the port number. For instance, if you want to run TDS on port 500, add ":500" to the end of the url field.
3. Restart the service.

This should allow you to open TDS on the other port.
