"dx new" with fullstack, test: ServerFn Echo panics

[phkoester]

Hello,

I'm totally new to Dioxus and am playing around with dx new. I noticed when I choose the fullstack option and launch my desktop app with dx serve --platform desktop, the echo server function doesn't work. I get the error

16:37:40 [linux] thread 'main' panicked at src/components/echo.rs:18:65:
16:37:40 [linux] called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: Request("error sending request for url (http://127.0.0.1:43405/api/echo_server9820224038553403100)")

followed by a long stack trace. dx says "ServerFns at: http://127.0.0.1:8080". Is this a problem with the port?

When I run dx run --platform desktop, the echo demo works fine. But now I miss hot reloading, of course.

Steps to reproduce:

• use Dioxus CLI 0.6.2
• dx new some_app, choose fullstack
• Run the app with dx serve --platform desktop
• Type something below "ServerFn Echo"
• -> App panics

yeah, I see same/similar behavior with binary generated by "dx build" or "dx bundle". It can work if the server binary is started first, but I think that should not be necessary for a fullstack desktop app?

If you are using fullstack, the server functions always run on the server even if you call them from the desktop app. Because of that, the server always needs to be running for server functions to work
