Hi All, just tested this, but it did not help. Still JavaMonitor was not externally reachable and the "requested application was not found". Only re-starting the wotask, JavaMonitor, and apache manually makes it work.

Question: Is this why it was taken out from the Wonder variants? because it does not work anyhow?

Thanks,

Dennis.

It runs quickly when everything is up, I don't see a reason to not include it in all the scripts.

It's woproject that will need to be changed since it's woproject job to create the launch scripts. So we have to decide if any applications build by woproject should have the ipconfig call or it's only for wotaskd and Monitor. I think it should be for all applications, because if someone is launching a WO app without wotaskd at startup (for example, a product build and sold as a .woa), having the call would be useful.

I was just diffing the application launch scripts for a default wotaskd/javamonitor that I had lying around (not exactly sure which version - probably from 5.3.x) and the Wonder versions - i.e., wotaskd.woa/wotaskd and JavaMonitor.woa/JavaMonitor (not the launchd code).

In both cases the stock versions include the following code right before the application is launched - and which is not present in the Wonder versions of the apps (or in my own built apps):

# Verify network services are intialized before starting
#
echo Checking network services....
if [ "${PLATFORM_TYPE}" = "Darwin" ]
then
/usr/sbin/ipconfig waitall
fi
#

It seems that Apple recognized this problem, and took steps to customize each of these 'likely to be launched boot time' applications' boot scripts to deal with it.

Is there a way to build the Wonder versions to include modified launch scripts by default? Alternatively, I think you could go with my earlier idea of a dedicated launchd task to wait for the interfaces at that point, and then bring up wotaskd, Monitor and Apache once the network is ready.

I recall modifying the app.woa/app startup script at the end.

Basically, wotaskd should start first (it will start your app), then after it is running javamonitor should start. The tail end of my wotaskd.woa/wotaskd is like:

#
# Launch the application.
#
# gsb 6/9/2010
# wait untill things boot all the way up
/usr/sbin/ipconfig waitall
#extra time for db
/bin/sleep 100

#
# Launch the application.
#
echo gb fixed? Launching ${SCRIPT_NAME}.woa ...
echo Launching ${SCRIPT_NAME}.woa ...

echo ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE} ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE_ARGS} -classpath WOBootstrap.jar com.webobjects._bootstrap.WOBootstrap ${COMMAND_LINE_ARGS}
eval exec ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE} ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE_ARGS} -classpath WOBootstrap.jar com.webobjects._bootstrap.WOBootstrap ${COMMAND_LINE_ARGS}


And for my  JavaMonitor.woa/JavaMonitor:

# gsb 6/9/2010
# wait untill things boot all the way up
/usr/sbin/ipconfig waitall
#extra time for db
/bin/sleep 240

#
# Launch the application.
#
echo gb fixed? Launching ${SCRIPT_NAME}.woa ...

#
# Launch the application.
#
echo Launching ${SCRIPT_NAME}.woa ...

echo ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE} ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE_ARGS} -classpath WOBootstrap.jar com.webobjects._bootstrap.WOBootstrap ${COMMAND_LINE_ARGS}
eval exec ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE} ${JAVA_EXECUTABLE_ARGS} -classpath WOBootstrap.jar com.webobjects._bootstrap.WOBootstrap ${COMMAND_LINE_ARGS}


So I had javamonitor trying to restart wotaskd which was waiting for things to happen. This did not allow proper startup. With the wait and extra time for javamonitor reboots work properly.

I think the apple wo 5.4.3 startups had some waiting; this is the Wonder versions I had to modify.

A wait maybe should be added to the Wonder wotaskd and JavaMonitor startup scripts.

I could be wrong, of course.
