help with localhost url for downloading forms

[Mukiza Andrew]

hello there,
i am trying to connect my emulator with the openxdata server (locally hosted) on my
 machine using the source code i checked out  code from https://svn.openxdata.org/J2ME/branches/1.7/
i compiled it and it is running the emulator very well
but when i try to download forms it says that the url is wrong. could some one send me a correct url to use when connecting to localhost.
Thanks
Andrew

What is your current url?

Your url should be structured in the format like http://<server-address>/openxdata/mpsubmit

Refer to the following doc for details: https://trac.openxdata.org/wiki/DynamicProtocolSupport

[Jørn Ivar Klungsøyr]

A small addition
In the below address, "openXdata" should be the exact folder name for the application in tomcat.
http://<server-address>/openxdata/mpsubmit
Also don't forget to open firewalls etc

also u can refer your localhost ip as 10.0.2.2 for localhost - this is a default ip for localhost in android test

Hi,

It's not the same as localhost. I don't mean to critical here, but using a 10-dot address doesn't give the user anything in this scenario and it's actually a potential security hole if you don't understand that it's a non-routable address - not a loopback address. Another party can still potentially see traffic if you're on the same local network. I am curious, what is the intended value of providing this information?

[Mukiza Andrew]

Hey
Could u do me a favor. and explain to me how i can add the firewall
exceptions and see if they could be the reason for my connection
failure.
Thank you

[Jørn Ivar Klungsøyr]

Hi Mukiza,
This would highly depend on the firewall and OS you use - so more details would be appreciated :)
Also don't forget that the URL must include the port number used unless you have setup tomcat to use port 80 (or some other port magic.
So <server-address> in the below example could be like 123.34.23.2:8080 (if you have tomcat running on port 8080....) - for e.g. demo.openxdata.org we run tomcat on port 80 to remove the need for the :8080
Best
Jørn

Did you mean "localhost" or "localjost"?

If we keep uppermost in our minds the unkind and unjust acts of others, we shall find it impossible to love them as Christ has loved us; but if our thoughts dwell upon the wondrous love and pity of Christ for us, the same spirit will flow out to others.

[Mukiza Andrew]

yeah i meant localhost . sorry about that

[Mark Gerard]

I dont understand, did you try to connect with http://localjost:8888/mpsubmit?

Change localjost to localhost and let us know how it goes!

Mark

P.S

- Take time to format your emails well - it is a bit of a drag to wallow in too much text that is not well formatted. We want to help but you could help us by formatting your emails well.
- Also take time to check simple things like localjost and localhost, sometimes a second look might reveal the answer!

[Mukiza Andrew]

I made the mistake here on the forum but in the applications it is
"localhost"
( http://localhost:8888/mpsubmit)
when i try to connect to the openxdataserver it returns this error
"Response code not OK =404. Please check your server url ...."
I hope this makes it clearer
thanks
Andrew

Andrew,

What is the connectivity between the mobile client and your server (localhost) where OpenXdata is hosted? Are both the client and server running on the same system? If not, is the mobile client on a cell-phone? Are you using WiFi? Or, are you using GPRS?

Your server needs to be externally accessible IP address (global IP) if you are going to use GPRS on the cell-phone.

I am sure you already have all the answers, but you could still check out these pointers.

[Mark Gerard]

What happens when you navigate to that url in the browser?

Mark

[Mukiza Andrew]

Another observation
On clicking download studies,
It shows "Connected to server. Transferring data ..."
A few seconds later the error below pops
"Response code not OK =404. Please check your server url under http
connection settings"

BTW, the connection settings are 'http://localhost:8888/mpsubmit'
Am using the emulator to connect to oxd v1.2 server(which I start with
"mvn gwt:run" via commandline)

:)
Andrew.

Actually, no need to navigate to it! It is formatted wrongly

Read this document before proceeding: https://trac.openxdata.org/wiki/DynamicProtocolSupport

The way to format the url (I am assuming you deployed the application correctly) is explained in there!
If you attempting to connect from with in the hosted mode server, you might have to format the url differently though I dont have the correct references handy right now! I would suggest you deploy it to tomcat!

Hi Andrew,
I got through some steps to get the mobile client's code of the
emulator work with a server-side code in development mode.
Here are the chronicles.

1. Set up the mobile code(used 1.2.2 from the branch) as indicated on
the link https://trac.openxdata.org/wiki/MobileSetup
2. define download and upload urls as http://localhost:8888/mpsubmit
3. If using server-side code v1.2, you will want to throw the protocal
jars into the admin project . Put those jars into the folder admin/war/
protocal-jars
4. Run your mobile code through ant's tasks as outlined in the link in
step #1.
5. Run the server-side with mvn gwt:run, ofcourse from the admin
project on commandline.

Given the above steps, I pulled a list of studies on the emulator.
Don't hesitate to get back incase of any problems.

Simon.
