LS and apache

Hello there.

I'm new to LS.

I want to test it on my pc. So I installed it yesterday and it runs at http://localhost:8080. But I want to use it with apache and my IP address. I read HOW_TO_DEPLOY_ON_YOUR_WEB_SERVER.TXT but I still have problems.

this is the 3 lines of my misc.js file that I have to change:

pushPage.context.setDomain('MY_IP_ADDRESS');
lsEngine.connection.setLSHost('MY_IP_ADDRESS');
lsEngine.connection.setLSPort('80'); -> The Apache listening port 80

LS server is listening port 8080.

I did port forwarding in my router for 8080 but when I type MY_IP_ADDRES:8080 nothing happens.

So is it possible to do it that way on one machine? Something that I miss on LS conf or it's something else.

hi,

first of all, you can't use your IP address, you have to use hostnames. You can always set some fake hosts in the hosts file if needed while developing.

setLSPort should point to the port the Lightstreamer server is listening to, not to Apache's port.

let me know if you can go on from here.

It worked ! Thanks a lot !! "setLSPort" .. how I missed the "LS" in that... :)
Thanks again... it's working really nice.

modification done in misc.js file

Code:

---

pushPage.context.setDomain('www.mydemos.com');

---

deployed in separate PC and changed in host file

Code:

---

lsEngine.connection.setLSHost('MY_IP_ADDRESS');

---

where i have installed the LS Server

Code:

---

lsEngine.connection.setLSPort('80');

---

LSPort

In host file i have modified like this in web server [localhost] where i configured the web application using IIS

Code:

---

127.0.0.1      www.mydemos.com        # localhost
192.168.35.119        localhost                # LightStreamer Server

---

when i tried to run the application [http://www.mydemos.com/demos/stocklistdemo/index.html] i actually opens the demo pages but its not connecting to the LS server and getting this error
1: 13:12:27,357 ER Unable to create the Engine.Retrying. If the problem persists, please check your configuration. bind. can anyone let me know how to configure it properly.

My requirement is to run the web application and Lightstreamer server in separate servers and it should work properly

now i think its trying to connect to lightstreamer server but it throwing error, attached the error image and these are the modification that i have done.

misc.js file modified in web server

Code:

---

pushPage.context.setDomain('www.mydemos.com');
lsEngine.connection.setLSHost('push.mydemos.com');
lsEngine.connection.setLSPort('80');

---

host file modified in web server

Code:

---

192.168.35.119        push.mydemos.com        # LightStreamer Server
192.168.35.92        www.mydemos.com                # Client Web Application

---

host file modified in lightstreamer server

Code:

---

192.168.35.119      push.mydemos.com

---

after modifying this i got the error "ER exception FFT is not defined" check the attachment

hi,

sorry for that, the misleading FFT error message is issued when the domain and host settings are not compatible;

change the domain setting like this:
pushPage.context.setDomain('mydemos.com');

Thank you very much Mone, its working now and for subdomain also working, now i will concentrate on getting data from Database using C#.
