UGS Metadata Server Setup Issues

I’ve tried following the guides at both MetadataServer · CodewareGames/UnrealGameSync Wiki · GitHub
and
Unreal Game Sync Reference Guide for Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.0 Documentation

I believe I have the MYSQL Database set up appropriately, but even when trying to debug the MetadataServer by setting it as my startup project in visual studio. And trying to reach my database through the connection string in the Web.Debug.config file I’m only met with error code 403.14 and 404. from the localhost/api/lastest and other URL’s.

I’m just trying to get this working locally on my personal PC as it stands, happy to share any info I have on my project for help.

Thanks in advance…
