Having a hard time deciphering this. I'll add a few notes.
Much thanks for trying, it was a ray of hope, and I have been working with it and reply as follows...


If I make the 10.5 box the DNS server, by switching the Ethernet cables, the <wotaskd> error goes away, I guess I understand that.
I don't.

I've done some more testing and indeed there is always an erring <apple.com.womonitor> process, i.e. <wotaskd>?
Now if I make the 10.5 box a real DNS server by switching Ethernet cables <webobjects.log> shows a running non-erring <wotaskd>, but <system.log> shows a continually crashing <apple.com.womonitor>.
Now I see in Activity's Process pane 2 Java processes, started by <launchd> and a third Java process which comes and crashes (with below) every 6 seconds. How many Java processes ought there to be after a successful boot?


cascadewebdesign com.webobjects.wotaskd <main> Unable to establish a connection to port 1085 on this host. Perhaps this port is already in use by another WebObjects application instance.


BUT, those messages did not appear in <webobjects.log>, whereas they had before switching cables?
So this womonitor problem seems to me to be preeminent to the password error.



That must be the canonical name of that machine.
It is a new machine, where is the canonical name set?

I don't see the field <host> in <com.apple.womonitor.plist> so I don't know where the host name <cascadewebdesign.com> (which is me) is coming from in the above?
Reverse DNS lookup of the IP address?
Ah.

I'm trying to set up a 10.5 server running DNS services via Apache and FrontBase (I finally got the DNS services up, last problem was that Server Admin had written site files with port 16080 specified rather than port 80 as I require, some virtual host specification caused the error, no doubt).
No, that was webperfcache.
Well, this is a virgin 10.5 so according to
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man8/webperfcache.8.html>
webperfcache should not have been a player. But it was because I used the old site files, from 10.4 box, ah again.

Goal: The old 10.4 server will continue to run WebObjects 5.3 and all the five deployed WOApplications, it is currently running wotaskd and JavaMonitor, FrontBase, and Apache all together.
I have no idea if you can mix WO 5.3 and 5.4 deployment.
Well, I'm not mixing them on the same computer. For now I am planning on just using the 5.3 deployment for WO apps. I need to bring up the new server with 10.5 as my 10.4 server software won't install on the Intel box. I really would like to do this as a multi-computer deploy, one of my non-profit organizations that I have a WO app running for gave me the computer and the required new server software. Then I will convert the 5.3 apps as needed, so at that point I would need to have a mixed environment, but still on separate computers.

On 10.5:
	/System/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/Apache2.2/apache.conf
and the line
	WebObjectsConfig http://localhost:1085 10

So I changed the line in <apache.conf> on 10.5 box to:
WebObjectsConfig http://216.vvv.xxx.yy7:1085,http:// 216.vvv.xxx.yy8:1085 10


In both cases if I try to add the 10.4 box as a Host from the JavaMonitor page on the 10.5 box, I get:
(ISP Name): Invalid Password - Access Denied

Check /System/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/Apache2.2/apache.conf for the password config.

I don't see how that is done in <apache.conf>, there's some lines about the <WOAdaptorInfo>, but that does not reference out to the computer which is trying to be added as a host?
I wonder if in the Host line I should do something like ( but then you couldn't add the Host via JavaMonitor's GUI ):
WebObjectsConfig http://216.vvv.xxx.yy7:1085,http:// 216.vvv.xxx.yy8:1085?user+password 10
Is this message "Invalid Password - Access Denied" referring to JavaMonitor's password on the remote host, or the SSH login?

Maybe I should try Multicast Configuration, but I don't understand it anyway, they use the line:
# WebObjectsConfig webobjects://239.128.14.2:1085 10
for multi-casting, is that a magic IP that everyone uses, or just a placeholder?



Again, this might be a 5.4 + 5.3 compatibility issue.

Chuck
