Hi there,

Thank you for contacting pdf.js express forums,

Can you confirm you have the correct package installed? PDF.js express and PDF.js express Viewer are separate products with different license keys. Please make sure you are using the right product for your license key.

If you still have issues, please try without the port as explained by this forum post:

Best regards,
Kevin Kim
