Hi All,

I am using MB Toolkit 5.0.5 with IBM Agent Controller 5.0.2.

I designed some message flows and tried executing them. They are executing perfectly, the problem emerged when i tried to debug one of them.
When i click on Attach to flow runtime and then select the Agent controller, It shows the error message that agent controller is not available on the host.
Agent Controller is running on local system and it is configured as LOCAL.

Please suggest any solutions.

Is the broker where the flows are executing also local or is it on a remote system? If it's remote then the agent controller needs to be running on that remote machine, not locally.

Also, what port is the agent controller listening on? It's possible you might have a mismatch there as well.

Just some thoughts...

Thanks for ur reply.

My broker is also on the local system. I can see the service running in administrative tools. The port it is listening is the default port 10002. I tried after changing this port in the config file also... its till the same. I am sure that there is no mismatch in the port number.

Any thing else that i need to check.. ?

When you said you can see the service running, I'm assuming you mean the Agent Controller service, so that's good.

Just to verify that it's running the way it's supposed to, I'd try the following at the windows command prompt:

Code:
telnet localhost 10002


If you get a connection then at least the service is accepting connections on that port like you expect it to and if not then you know there's a problem w/ RAC itself and not with the toolkit.

I'd also check the service's config file for problems such as pointing to the wrong java install. In windows the file should be C:\Program Files\IBM\IBM Agent Controller\config\serviceconfig.xml. Also check servicelog.log in that directory for any errors that might lead you to the cause of the problem. There's always a chance that windows event viewer might have some information on your failures as well.

Not to be totally obvious, but I'd make sure your broker has the newest fixPacks installed too - this might fix your bug and if you decide to call IBM for support they'll make you do it anyway. I had serious problems getting debugging to work right in v6 and applying fixPacks pretty much solved my problem.

Last but not least, the following page has info on RAC for v6 of the broker, but it's possible that some of the documentation also applied to the older version.

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wbihelp/v6rxmx/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.etools.mft.eb.doc/ah18250_.htm

Good luck, let us know how you make out.

I too have the same Issue...
But was able to attach the Broker Process to Debug...
I couldnt attach the Flow process to the Debug Session
( WBIMBV6BROKER.default ) An error occurred in the JNI layer during flow debugging

Observe any following errors and try to correct them. If you are unable to do so, please contact your IBM support center.


Pls Help

We had a problem on one machine were anti virus software was preventing the toolkit to connect to the RAC.
So if you have anti virus software, go to services and stop all services related to antivirus, (change the start mode to manual) and try restrating the machine.
It worked for us. Also check to see if there is a version mismatch.

FYI we had another problem with agent controller with version 6. To get over it we had to install the fix pack 1 for the toolkit as well as an interim fix (4) before it started working.

Regards,
Anoop

Hi All,
we have Solaris 5.9. I have installed Agent Controller on Solaris with security option disable. After RAC Installation, RAServer is up and Running fine. On Toolkit in debug mode, when I attached DataFlowEngine, Tool kit show DataFlowEngine but not able to display the message flows deployed under that DataFlowEngine and all the messages that we are putting on input queue going to output queue, not stopped at break point. When I looked at the service log of RAC it shows an error of shared memory. Exact error is as follows:
<SERVER_MSG time="2006:6:26:13:49:9" severity="WARNING" text="Requesting shared memory 1048576 bytes, allocating 1048576 bytes, system max 4294967295 bytes
"/>
<SERVER_MSG time="2006:6:26:13:49:9" severity="SEVERE" text="Shared memory access changes failed, platform specific error is 0"/>

The environment is as follows

Window 2000:-
Toolkit:---- Version: 5.0.4
Fix pack--- S500-L40713

Solaris---- Version 5.9
Message Broker v5.0
Java version "1.4.2_04"
Fix pack --- S500-CSD05 ( FP5 )

Please help me out on an urgent basis

Regards

This sounds like a kernel-related issue to me - I'd open a PMR w/ IBM and see if you need to change any of the kernel parameters on your solaris box. Just a thought...
