Try

Yea! Well, the kludge works with -WOHost <hostname> and WOPort specified. Frameworks seem Ok. The exception I saw before was application related, the DB framework is intact. Images are there too. Some of the fancier CSS Javascript isn't working though, but I'm not really concerned with that at the moment.


Now how do I get Java Monitor to "do the right thing"?

I tried setting up localhost and <hostname> as my Java Monitor host. When I configure the app, it will run, but I can't connect to it as before. If I put -WOHost argument into JM's application setup the log says "can't find address for <myhostname> using localhost instead". JM still won't recognize the server if I give it my mywebsite.com address unless I expose port 1085 to the wide world.

Thanks for the continued assistance. I am still up the creek, but at least now I have a rather wide stick as a paddle substitute.

Hi Scott, I haven't been following this thread very closely,

Thanks for the assistance. I really appreciate the way you, Chuck and some others in the list are willing to lend a hand.


This is the simplest possible configuration (I think). Web, App, Database are all on the same Mac OS X Server. It's is connected to a router with port forwarding enabled on port 80 (no SSL yet). There is no local DNS service running.

Briefly, here is the problem. . .

I can't setup my app in Java Monitor so the outside world can see it. I can't use mydomain.com as the JM host because it can't find it. If I open port 1085 on the router and use mydomain.com as the JM host it can find it, but app instances won't start.

If I use localhost as the host in JM, it accepts it, and app instances will start, but I have no outside connection -- http:// mydomain.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyApp gets application not found.

but this problem sounds like you're not using the canonical host name in your configuration. You shouldn't be using an external alias like "www.mydomain.com", instead you should be using "mycleverinternalhost.mydomain.com",

I'm not using www. I have tried to use mydomain.com, but Java Monitor is unable to find wotaskd, unless I open up port 1085 on the router. I'm told that should not be necessary. There is nothing local that I know of that points mydomain.com at the server.


especially if the external alias maps to a different machine, like a firewall.

The external alias maps to a little router box. I use port forwarding to get web traffic to the server.


What host name are you using? On the server that runs your apps, what does "host" return from terminal?

hostname on the server's terminal returns "server1.local"

domainname on the server's terminal returns a blank line

host <website without the "www"> returns <router's static IP>

host <router's static IP> returns <website without the "www">

host <local IP> returns "Not Found"

host <server1.local> returns "Not Found"


Thanks for taking a look,

Scott
