RE: Make Beagle accesible from everywhere

[j r]

Hi again,

I think I have found the reason because I don't receive anything when I look 
for some document from another computer. I have tried to do it in the computer 
hosting beagle server in two ways, first from http://localhost:4000 and then 
from http://10.5.36.50:4000 (its network IP) and it didn't work with the second 
URL.

So I thought that the answer could be in the XML with results generated by 
beagle server and it seems to be the problem. In order to test it I have traced 
the xmlhttp object in "default.js". I did something like this

function state_change_info ()
{
    if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4) {
        // FIXME: Should also check for status 200
        var res = xmlhttp.responseText;
        alert(res);

I obtained a different answer depending on the URL call, and if I invoke the 
server from 10.5.36.50:4000 I receive an invalid XML string. For example:

FROM HTTP://10.5.36.50:4000 (Invalid xml string)

391 // This number seems to be a random one

AND FROM HTTP://localhost:4000 (Right XML string)

Then from my point of view WebInterface works typing any URL, but the answer 
it's not a valid XML string and it cannot be rightly parsed and shown in the 
Web Client.

Any idea about this strange behaviour? Please, just tell me where to look for 
the method which generates this XML string and I can check it on my own.

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

First of all, thanks for your great work with this application and all your 
efforts. 

I'm trying to make accesible Beagle for everybody in a private network. For my 
purpose I'm using the Web Interface as I have some computers working with 
Windows. So my idea is to index a network folder with Beagle installed in an 
Ubuntu machine and search documents there through this machine using Beagle Web 
Interface.  

Firstly it was imposible to access to this web interface from another computer, 
so I thought it was disabled. Fortunately I found the way to avoid it. Just 
changing this string in Server.cs file 

line 833 string host="localhost"; ---> string host="*"

Now I can access, but nothing works, I mean, when I try to look for something 
it doesn't work from a remote computer, but it does from the computer with 
Beagle installed. Then I suppose I should change something more in the source 
code.

Please I would need some clue or track. It may be very useful for somebody else.

Thanks in advance

Miguel Calle
