Pls Help!!! HTTPInvoker Does not Work

[wikey]

Hi, i have a problem access my JBOSS thru firewall, i have followed the instruction below but unfortunately no luck!

http://www.nemesisit.ro/opendocs/simplearch/simplejboss.html

I think i have missed out something as the xml file below.

BTW, do i need to specified the "firewall ip" or the "server ip" that running JBOSS?

If the firewall ip, which port should use?


jboss-service.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE server>

<!-- The HTTP invoker service configration-->

Check Chapter 8.8 in the Admin/Developer guide, which instructs on how to use JBoss from behind a firewall (http://www.jboss.org/docs/index#as). Also can reference wiki entry at http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=UsingJBossBehindAFirewall.

Hi, Tom. Thks for reply.

The external_host_name is refer to the firewall ip or the server ip that running jboss?

-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=<external_host_name>
-Djava.rmi.server.useLocalHostname=false

Hi Tom,

http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=UsingJBossBehindAFirewall

Hereby, i post all my related source code and configuration file for your reference.


Thank in advance,

Hi, i manage to solve the problem.

I changed the port 4444 to something else...

btw, i have enable all ports from the firewall setting but somehow it was block.

4444 is not a good number...for chinese :)

Cheers,
