I followed this post ([https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-access-documentation-for-wowza-streaming-engine-rest-api](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-access-documentation-for-wowza-streaming-engine-rest-api)) to configure my Server.xml.

It works in last Friday.

However, it return 404 Not found today.

I restarted the Engine several times and configure the Server.xml again, and it still not work.

Any one can help ?

The response of calling http://[ip]:8089/api-docs

**4.6.0**

**`404`**

**The server has not found anything matching the request URI**

Here is my Server.xml

**\<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?\>**
