Re: [ptp-dev] More PTP Milestone1A problems

Sorry for the confusion. I'll update the release notes as soon as I get a chance.

It's best to consider PTP and RDT as completely separate for the moment. If you're using RSE, then you'll need an ssh-only connection for PTP and a dstore connection for RDT. We're going to need to work out how to make this more transparent in the future, but for now you can either create both connections using the RSE connection manager, or use the PTP RM wizard to create the ssh one.

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.
