EM,
Are you still facing that. I too installed using homebrew. started service using: basexhttp, and made an http request:
http://localhost:8984/rest/<db_name>?query=<query>
and everything worked fine.
Is your database on local machine from where you started basexhttp ? I initially, had my database on external HDD, and service wasn't starting.
Hope this helps, - Mansi

I tried to install a local instance of baseX and use the web application features. I work on mac and installed baseX with homebrew after changing the password of the admin user, and creating a database, I launched the httpserver and typed in my browser http://localhost:8984/ the result is : HTTP ERROR: 503
Problem accessing /webapp. Reason:
Service Unavailablewhat am I missing ? is it even possible to use a web app on a local computer ? thanks in advance for your help...
