I tried to run demorestbridge inside Lazarus in debug mode. When the web browser points to http://localhost:3000/REST/metadata
the debugger shows an error message that says: 'project SQLDB REST bridge raised an exception of class 'EHTTP' with message: No REQUEST_METHOD passed from server.. At address 10009D512' Any idea what this could mean?
