Summary: So, to run Hops (1) using VM computation, I just need to set the parameter URL and KEY in preference>solver. To execute the vscode or other application request and get the json (2) I need to run the appserver locally (npm run start). And finally, to use the js application (3), both appservers must be running (local and VM).
-
Setup VM: I suspect it’s a new version and doesn’t match the video ( Rhino App Server - YouTube) but after following all the steps ( Rhino - Deploying to Production Servers (rhino3d.com)) the compute.geometry service is not displayed. → is it usual?
-
Run Hops: install compute in the VM, define URL and KEY in grasshopper (local) and works.
- Request API: Define env variables RHINO_COMPUTE_URL/KEY in local machine. Start the appserver in local machine and return the resolved json. It works like a charm.

Sometimes this error occurs:
{
"message": "Internal Server Error",
"stack": "Error: Internal Server Error\n at C:\\Users\\casas\\OneDrive\\compute.rhino3d.appserver\\src\\routes\\solve.js:152:15\n at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)"
}
- Run js app: I need to run both appservers (local and vm) to interact with the gh definition, right? Call from http://localhost:3000/examples/spikyThing/
When i am running boths app servers at the same time (vm and local) it works perfectly (did you refer to that? ‘A local appserver can only speak to a local Rhino.Compute instance and a remote appserver can only speak to a remote Rhino.Compute instance.’)

And this is what rhino. Compute shows in the vm:
