Web enabling a Jade application

[bwycuff]

Greetings,

Even though I'm a LINC vetern, I'm still a newbie with a lot of Jade features. Namely, web enabling a Jade application. I have read and followed the white paper on the process but complete success has thus far eluded me.

I can see the files in the virtual directory from the internet and can include in the url string index.html which comes up successfully. However, executing jadehttp does not work. The failing url is: http://localhost/contactU/jadehttp.dll?ContactWeb (still in test mode...).

I have most recently added a JadeWeb service which now at least seems to wake up jadehttp but I get the error: Service Not Available.

The log shows a Jadehttp version check error and then fails to connect which I think then causes the Service Not Available error.

I'm running Development Jade 6.03.05 on a Windows 2003 server.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help.

Bill

The web-enabled application must be up and running and listening on the TCP/IP port that has been configured.
The Jade application's settings (in the Application "Web Options" Tab) need to be filled out and match with Jadehttp's configuration.
Jadehttp is just a "man in the middle" in that it will accept a request from the web server and pass it on to the Jade application.
Jadehttp has to know what host/IP address and port the application is listening on to be able to make the connection.
If you run the Jade web application from the desktop you will have a form that displays its current status and any requests received.

Thanks for your reply murray.

I believe I have all that setup correctly...at least until proven otherwise :>)

All Jade installs were done from the same CD, so there shouldn't be any version problems...

Here's the jadehttp.ini file contents:

[MicroUWeb]
ApplicationType=WebEnabledForms
TcpConnection=localhost
TcpPort=5555
ConnectionGroup=All

The url: http//localhost:5555/microU/jadehttp.dll?MicroUWeb

Where microU is a virtual directory setup on the 2003 IIS pointing to directory C://Jade/bin
And jadehttp.dll has been setup in IIS as an allowed service.

And then the log file contents are:

*********** Starting jadehttp.dll Version 6.3.05.002
Application MicroUWeb ConnectionGroup All tcpPort=5555 minInuse=1 maxInUse=1 closeDelay=0
Attempting open of Tcp connection localhost port=5555
Opened a tcp connection for application MicroUWeb connectionGroup All - tcp address = localhost port=5555 (id=1)
JadeHttp.dll version check failed, connection terminated
Request rejected - service unavailable

It's the version check failed that needs resolved. How?

Thanks again.

Hi Bill,

I have not encountered that error before. Seeing as nobody else seems to have any advice and also the error message is somewhat vague, it may be a question that Jade support has to answer.
The only thing I can suggest is to do a complete "fresh" installation onto a clean test machine and see if you still get the same error. There may be some conflicting files or registry entries.

OK. I'll give that a try.
If all else fails...how do I contact Jade support?

Thanks again Murray!
