App Center permissions on server

[SpringBox]

Thanks Yvonne

Tried that - makes no difference. Of course in IIS there is the PC and also the default site (both of which have near identical properties to change). In the example the changes are aimed at the Default Web Site so we hope that was the correct one to change.

It seems the web stuff will need a great deal more work to get it going. Our cloud infrastructure providers are scratching their heads too.

Permissions/accounts are as follows :

Server Manager account is using a domain admin account - full access

All the Lianja folder on drive C has modify access for all domain users

The c:\Temp folder (currently used for the vfp dbf target of the virtual table) - everyone - full access


We realise these settings will make most admins cringe but we are just trying to get things working.

These very loose permissions don't seem to make any difference.

**********************************

If we run App Centre manually on the server desktop or access it via RDP, it works fine but fails to export data from vt to vfp.dbf.

There were some command line switches for RDP in the past but we cannot find them or how to call login.rsp

If we try to run the web version http://domain.com:8001/login.rsp - it brings up the login screen but will not log in (browser console attached)

https://domain.com/login.rsp just won't connect at all despite carefully following the "how to".


Sorry about the long reply but we have tried everything we can think of. We are sure it shouldn't be this difficult.

Any thoughts as to the way forwards?

Cheers

Hi Simon,

Tried that - makes no difference

- do you mean no web.config file was created?

Can you show the output in the Network tab when you try to connect/login?

Hi Simon,

For http://domain.com:8001/login.rsp, check whether you have a drive:\lianja\cloudserver\tenants\public\wwwroot\l ogin.rso file. If you do, delete it and try the http://domain.com:8001/login.rsp again. If it does not get recreated (or if it did not exist in the first place), fire up a browser session to localhost:8001 on the server itself.

Hi Yvonne

Yes the file is created and we have modified it in line with the guide.

Attached is the network page from browser tools

Hope this makes sense as we are totally lost here.

Thanks in advance

Hi Yvonne

Yes the file drive:\lianja\cloudserver\tenants\public\wwwroot\l ogin.rso gets recreated when deleted.

Tried the Localhost:8001/login.rsp and it yields the same results as trying to get in from external web - please see attached.

Does that help?

Cheers

If we wanted to just serve this up using RDP instead until we can resolve the web issues, what target and/or command line switches should we use?

We have :

Target

Start in



We want start with the App Center and not the app itself as we are now using the very powerful Lianja users & roles etc.

Thanks

Hi Simon,

Have you deployed the system database with your updates to users and roles?

Are you pressing return after the password or clicking on 'Login'?

Regards,

Yvonne

Hi Simon,

Actually, there is a problem with the 'Login' button. Enter the username and password, then just press return.

Hi Simon,

For IIS, check before adding the redirect (or remove to check);
1. https://yourdomain.com is accessible and displaying the default IIS start page
2. https://yourdomain.com/login.rsp is accessible and displaying the Lianja login page

Hi Yvonne

System database deployed.

Aha - yes - pressing Enter (rather than clicking Login button) works.

Ok we are making progress & can now get the app working.

We have 2 export routines which are triggered on record save :

1) exports images from app to jpg files in c:\temp\images - works fine.

2) exports data to vfp free table in c:\temp - does not work. The datestamp on the production vt table in tenants\public\data\database has not been updated so looks like the connection is broken. Will remake the vt from scratch and redeploy & see if that helps.

No - the OLEDB is not registered and, upon inspection, not installed. We have tried the link in the Lianja article

There is an updated version of the VFP OleDB Provider from the one included in Visual FoxPro 9.0 It is available for download from:
http://microsoft.com/downloads/detai...playlang=en%7C

but that just takes us to the Microsoft page. Searched that site and nothing available.

Do you have the files necessary to install the correct OLEDB for VFP 9 available?

Cheers



Simon
