WISP sounds really interesting - however, I cannot seem to get it working "as advertised"

Using the Witango 5.5 server on Mac OS X, Apache 1.3+, Java 1.4.2

clients.ini file edited as follows

*****
[Witango Client Definitions]
mod_witango55_apache1.so=
wisp=

[mod_witango55_apache1.so]
ERROR_HTML=/Applications/WitangoServer/5.5/MiscFiles/clienterror.html
REGISTER_EXTNS=tcf;taf;thtml;tml;wws
REPORTCLIENTERROR=TRUE
SENDFULLHEADER=false
WITANGO_SERVER=127.0.0.1,18155

[wisp]
WITANGO_SERVER=127.0.0.1, 18100
ERROR_HTML=
REPORTCLIENTERROR=TRUE
DOCUMENTPATH=/Library/WebServer/Documents

****

Edited wisp.ini as follows

*****
[Witango Client Definitions]
WispClientDemo=

[WispClientDemo]
WITANGO_CONFIGPATH=/Applications/WitangoServer/5.5/configuration

*****

Put wisp.ini and WitangoClientDemo.jar in the same directory

/Library/WebServer/Documents/nidb

In the same directory, have a taf (dts.taf) that just returns seconds for timestamp

(restarted WITANGO server)


In terminal,
cd to directory where these files were all located

then ran

java -jar WitangoClientDemo.jar dts.taf
2
<HTML><H3>Client Error</H3><P>Can't connect to the application server.</P></HTML>



So what am I doing wrong? Why can't a connection be made? I cannot find any support info at the Witango web site to assist, other than the html page with the WISP demo file, which I attempted to follow exactly as described.

Hey there,

This is a perfect example of what WISP does really well. I have done
extensive testing of huge time consuming loops (millions all querying) using WISP and this is by FAR faster, more robust and more stable than using a web interface and relying on the browser, internet connection, iis (or other web server), and witango client to interface with the witango server. This resolves the need to do a constant postback and cuts the time
to iterate through a big jobs to less than 10%.

Also consider the user experience, it's not so good sitting around for 6
minutes wondering if the process works.

I would recommend setting up an app that executes a call to the wisp
interface, let the interface do the work and report when it is done. Then
your user is doing what matters.

Even better, set up the process to run on a timed basis and schedule it.

There are so many better ways than to use the web client.

Peter
