I'm evaluating WebObjects 5.2.1 from the Apple site that is a 30-day
trial period. I can't seem to get one of my simple WO apps to run on
port 80 -- the demos typically use non-standard ports like 55555. Is
this a restriction associated with the Apple trial period?
No. In development mode, WO doesn't use a Web server; it runs in
Direct Connect mode in which a random high-numbered port is used. Just
go ahead and allow WO to assign itself these ports. When you deploy
your WO app, it will use a Web server which will be listening to port
80 (typically).
When I change the WOPort key to a value of 80 (inside one of my WO
Apps Properties), I get this type of error:
<main> ------------------------
<main> Unable to establish a connection to port 80 on this host.
Perhaps this port is already in use by another WebObjects application
instance.
<main> <WOApplication>: Cannot be initialized.null
<main> A fatal exception occurred: null: <WOApplication>: Cannot be
initialized.
<main> com.webobjects.foundation.NSForwardException for
com.webobjects.foundation.NSForwardException for
java.net.BindException: Permission denied
My app is running on OS X 10.2.6 on an iBook and there is no port 80
in use by any other app or non-WebObjects daemon that I'm aware of
(unless Apache is being utilized in some way that I'm not aware of by
WebObjects?).
If Apache is running, it is listening to port 80, so your WO app
cannot also use port 80.
Aloha,
Art
