Hi everyone,
Just thought I would post this to help anyone having this issue since we spent a few days trying to find a solution. The issue we saw was that a few of our team members tried logging into the Demand Tools application with their validity account. It would sign in like everything was ok, but then stay as a white screen. When looking at the error logs, the issue showed: [error] Loading main window failed: Error: ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED (-105)
If you see this issue, then this fixed our problem:
Go to the javaSettings file located at C:\Users\USERNAME\DemandToolsConfig and add the additional argument
"-Dvalidity.localhost-dns=http://127.0.0.1" under the existing argument.
After adding the above argument, We were able login to Demand Tool and access the sandbox.
Thanks for reading, have a great day! 🙂
Solved! Go to Solution.

Another solution from DemandTools support for those who get the blank window when attempting to use G-SSO is the following:
Open you Demandtools, then open a chrome window and paste this url localhost:8080. It should load Demandtools on the browser, and let you authenticate. Once you successfully login to to your salesforce, go back to the Demandtools application, click Application>Home.
