Error creating a new server by logging into AEM Workbench

I've installed AEM Workbench and I'm trying to login and create a new server connection on the same machine/harddrive. 


I've been using this Youtube video as a tutorial. I have NOT installed "aemforms_server_6_5_0_jboss_all_win.zip" yet, although I have it ready and available. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q740bCcgV8k


In Workbench, when I click Login -> Configure -> Add new Server -> add title, hostname (localhost), SOAP/HTTP, and port 8080, and set username and password credentials to administrator/password, it gives me the error "Connection to (server title) failed. Please verify your connection settings and make sure the server is available before retrying".

 

 

How do I create a new server on the same machine? What am I doing wrong? Do I need to install "aemforms_server_6_5_0_jboss_all_win.zip"?

You need an AEM Forms server to connect to the workbench to create forms workflows. "aemforms_server_6_5_0_jboss_all_win.zip" provides you with the basic AEM Forms server installation.  This server can be installed on your local set-up or remote.

      @aem_user25 AEM workbench requires the server to make the connection. It will not work without the AEM forms server.
