[mapguide-users] Connection Problem

Hi Zac,

According to the Apache 2.2 docs,

For optimal reliability and predictability, you should specify an explicit hostname and port using the ServerName directive.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#servername


And the Redirect could use a URL path beginning with a "/".

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html#redirect


So I believe we still need to specify the ServerName but we may be able to simplify the redirect statements

Redirect /mapguide/mapviewerajax/ /mapguide/mapviewerjava/ajaxviewer.jsp
Redirect /mapguide/mapviewerdwf/ /mapguide/mapviewerjava/dwfviewer.jsp

Regards,
Trevor

wouldn't using apache's reverse proxy solve all these problems

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html

with a reverse proxy, localhost is always localhost to the server,
the implementation is nicely hidden from the browser

Let me recap some of the information provided so far with some details from the Apache/Tomcat install I just ran.

If you have chosen the Apache/Tomcat configuration from the installer by selecting "Bundled Configuration" and then "Java", then you should end up with the web server running on port 8008.  The Apache http.conf file should be located at C:\Program Files\OSGeo\MapGuide\Web\Apache2\conf\http.conf

If you want Apache to also serve on port 80, simply add the following  line (in red) to http.conf
#Listen 12.34.56.78:80<http://12.34.56.78:80>
Listen 8008
Listen 80

Then restart Apache by executing

net stop ApacheMapGuide2.1
net start ApacheMapGuide2.1

Kenneth is correct with the redirects.  The following redirects in http.conf should be changed to reflect the IP address of the machine where MapGuide is installed.  Localhost will only work for local browsers.

# MapViewer to MapViewerJava Redirect. Uncomment Redirect for Java API.
Redirect /mapguide/mapviewerajax/ http://localhost:8008/mapguide/mapviewerjava/ajaxviewer.jsp
Redirect /mapguide/mapviewerdwf/ http://localhost:8008/mapguide/mapviewerjava/dwfviewer.jsp

Redirect /mapguide/mapviewerajax/ http://(yourIPAddressHere):8008/mapguide/mapviewerjava/ajaxviewer.jsp
Redirect /mapguide/mapviewerdwf/ http://(yourIPAddressHere):8008/mapguide/mapviewerjava/dwfviewer.jsp

Please note, you can also drop the 8008 in the lines above if you want Apache to only listen on port 80.

I also noticed the following line in http.conf,

ServerName localhost:8008

This may also cause problems for server generated redirects.  It should probably be changed to the IP address of the machine.  The 8008 can also be dropped if running on port 80.

ServerName (yourIPAddressHere):8008

Any of these changes will also require an Apache service restart.

Thanks,
Trevor

There should be a redirect in your apache setup that redirects:
/mapguide/mapviewerajax/
to
/mapguide/mapviewerjava/ajaxviewer.jsp

For some reason the redirect appears to throw in "localhost".
If it is non-obvious from looking at your apache config where this is,
you may have some url-rewriting module or other item installed.

Try locating any "localhost" items in the apache config.

Alternatively, see if this is the method used:

Jason Sir,

I tried to access the page using Firefox with firebug

It is showing an error in the script tag which says:

Failed to load source for sourceFile top-level about:neterror?e=connectionFailure&u=http%3A//localhost%3A8008/mapguide/mapviewerjava/ajaxviewer.jsp%3FSESSION%3D0b920dc6-0000-1000-8000-0018f319f820_en_7F0000010AFC0AFB0AFA%26WEBLAYOUT%3DLibrary%3A//Samples/ms/Layouts/ms.WebLayout&c=UTF-8&d=Firefox%20can%27t%20establish%20a%20connection%20to%20the%20server%20at%20localhost%3A8008. script.tags( X| 220 221 222 223 224 225 226 227 )


Is this call hardwired to refer localhost?

Can I modify it in the file /mapguide/mapviewerajax ?

Thanks and Regards

Use something like fiddler2 to figure out what its trying to redirect
you to. Maybe a host name or ip that is unreachable from your client.
