It was the old WOHost parameter, with a twist. I originally set up my
Host in javamonitor to be the actual IP of the server. That worked
fine until this specific reboot of the system, at which point I
couldn't start my app.
I then tried adding:
WOHost=<ip address>
to /System/Library/WebObjects/JavaApplications/wotaskd.woa/Contents/
Resources/Properties and that didn't work. Actually the app would
then start, but I couldn't reach the app from the outside (no instance
available error I think)
Then I tried just changing to:
WOHost=localhost
Keeping my Host set to its IP. Again, the app would start, but I
couldn't get to it from the outside.
Finally, I set both WOHost and the Host in Javamonitor to localhost,
and it all started working again.
Phew!

Java monitor shows the instances, but it doesn't start the app. No
log output. No Deaths. WOStats button is greyed out. HELP!
I was able to launch from the command line as root and it runs fine.

Thanks Chuck!
That seems to have done the trick (and I got some sleep last
night). We gave everything in the app permissions of 'o+x', 'o
+w', and 'o+r' and suddenly the green light in JavaMonitor was on.
Now that we've opened everything up to the world, is there a
resource out there that defines which files need which permissions
on the server?
Probably not. :-) This is worth reading:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Deployment/Deploying_Applications/Introduction/chapter_1_section_1.html
At one point, WOLips was not marking the script that starts the app
as executable. That might have been it. It was the .woa directory
that you changed permissions on? It needs to be readable by the
user that wotaskd is running as. This should be _appserver if
things are setup correctly. _appserver also needs execute
permission on the AppName.woa/AppName script.

Hi Folks.
Summary:
I can't start an instance of an app (migrated from XCode) built in
WOLips with JavaMonitor, but I can run it from the command line
(MyApp.woa/MyApp).
Dev Env:
OSX 10.5.6
Eclipse 3.3.2
WOLips 3.3.5596
using the 'woswitch.sh' script to build as WO 5.3
Server:
OSX 10.4.x
WO 5.3
Apache
- Trying to launch an instance of the application on the server
through JavaMonitor fails - the light never turns green and the
Deaths increment up.
- The app runs successfully on the server when started at the
command line (MyApp.woa/MyApp).
- The server is currently successfully hosting a version of this
app
(that can be launched using JavaMonitor) that was built using the
old Apple dev tools (XCode?) on 5.3.
- When I launch my WOLips version of the app from the command line
(without any switches), it runs in DirectConnect mode - this is
successful.
- The 'old' XCode version app on the server (that is launched with
JavaMonitor) is NOT running in direct connect mode (images, CSS,
etc. are being served via Apache).
Any ideas about what I can to
1) diagnose the problem?
2) fix the problem?
Let's start here:

Thanks very much folks! I've been banging my head against the wall
on this one!
