app server

hi

i know this should be straightforward but…

i am playing with the application server but it will not start unless the developer version is also running. Also in the app server under the soution settings i cannot see an “import solution” option as written in the documentation.

I am running mysql5 from wampserver running as an automatic service. mySQL handles the solution data and the repository server.

Would appreciate any help.

I need a bit more details here. What operating system are you running, which Servoy version, which Java version, etc.

Note that you cannot run developer and server at the same time. The reason you do not see the import solution button is because you are connecting to the server started by the developer and import in the developer should be done via the repository dialog.

Make sure your server is really running; you should be able to connect to 8080 without starting your developer. If you can’t it means the server is not running. Check the server logfile for details of what is happening.

hi sebastiaan

servoy is 2.2.5, os is windows xp, mySQL is 5.0.18, java is java2 SDK 1.4.2_05

on startup of the computer i can see wampmysqld has started as an automatic service. again the app server will not load until i start developer first and keep it running then i can get into all screens in the app server.

Doh!

the app server service was still set to manual, when i switched to automatic and restarted the computer everything is fine and working well.

The Developer starts its own app server, but this one only lets three clients connect, and stops when you stop the developer. This app server is for testing purposes only and not for production, and also does not have all the functionality of the stand alone app server.
