Re: [ptp-dev] More PTP Milestone1A problems

My rse connection was ssh only. I set up a new rse connection using dstore 
only (even though the RSE connection setup dialog has checkboxes for 
dstore, ssh, etc, I can only pick one) and set up a dstore server on my 
Linux node by running daemon.pl 4075 4200-4203
I can see connect messages logged on my Linux node but if I try to do 
something simple like show my processes in the RSE prespective remote 
systems view, that request hangs and eventually times out. I am able to 
get xclock to work displaying on my Windows machine and don't seem to be 
having any other network problems.

I don't know if I'm still having firewall or network issues. I won't be 
back in the office with time to try this without firewalls until next Wed.

Will the proxy startup work with a ssh-only rse connection or is dstore 
required for that too? I was able to start bthe proxy with a ssh rse 
connection in PTP 2.0 a while ago, don't know if anything is changed.

Is your RSE connection SSH only? The remote indexing stuff requires 
dstore...

[ptp-dev] More PTP Milestone1A problems






I tried the PTP milestone1 build again tonight and got a little farther 
with trying to create a new remote project. This time when I tried to use 
the new remote project wizard, I was able to choose the remote tools 
filesystem and click the browse button next to the location text field on 
the first wizard page. This time, I was able to select a connection name 
from the dropdown at the top of the browse directory dialog, and then 
browse my home directory on my remote Linux system and select a directory 
on hat system. However, as I tried to advance thru the wizard pages I got 
a message in the PDE error log window that the directory path I selected 
could not be opened, and the finish button for the wizard never was 
enabled. The odd thing was that the pathname that showed up in the error 
message had '\' as directory delimiters instead of '/'. My eclipse GUI is 
running on a windows XP system so I'm wondering if pathnames are being 
sent to the Linux system with '\' in the path name. 

I wasn't sure why this was failing so I downloaded the M1A build. Now when 
I select browse in the new remote project wizard and then click a 
connection name in the browse directory dropdown, I get a progress dialog 
but it freezes at about the halfway point and the connection doesn't 
complete within a couple minutes. At that point I canceled the progress 
dialog. 

Another problem that I have been seeing, and which still happens in the 
M1A build is that if I have a PE proxy running when I shut down eclipse, 
then the next time I start Eclipse, where I have a different IP address 
(because I've dropped my VPN connection and then reconnected), then when 
PTP tries to restart the proxy, it fails and the icon for that proxy is 
blue. At that point, I can't do anything with the proxy. I shot down 
Eclipse and start again, and the proxy icon is now gray (inactive). If I 
fix the local address for proxy connection in the resource manager wizard 
so it matches my current IP address, I can start the proxy and everything 
is fine. If there was a way to reset the state of the proxy icons in the 
resource manager wizard so that it wasn't blue, I wouldn't have to restart 
Eclipse to fix the problem. 

I have what I think is a working RSE connection. If I open the Remote 
System Explorer perspective and open Sftp files or shell processes in the 
tree in the remote systems view, I can see files and processes appear in 
the view. I switched to the PTP runtime view and tried to create a 
resource manager using the same RSE connection. The first problem is that 
if I change the remote service provider to RSE, then the browse button 
next to the proxy path edit filed does't do anything. If I select local as 
the remote service provider, then I get a file selector dialog. I switched 
remote service provider back to RSE and pasted in the full path name to my 
proxy and filled in the other fields in the wizard and clicked finish. 
Then I tried to start the proxy. I get a progress dialog for a couple 
seconds and then I get a popup dialog with a message 'Failed to start 
resource manager' and the proxy icon goes to the blue state.
