I have developed a simple http flow which has a HTTP Request node which forwards the request to "http://localhost:7070/svc1"
I also has a webserbice flow running with HTTP Input node property set to "/svc1".
While creating the broker i specified the Http Listener port as 7070 and i could see the 'biphttplistener" process running.
But when i apss the Input xml message i'm getting the error tht the webservice "/svc1" is not found in the localhost portno 7070. I'm also getting socket communications Connect() error.
I want to know how to check whether the webservice is available. I tried doing atelnet to port 7070 but the conection was refused, and also "netstat -an" command didnot list the port "7070" as listening.
Can i modify the broker again and give a new port number?. |

You can use mqsichangebroker t-P o change the httplistener port. If you want to try to see if a connection to your web service is possible, try telneting to the port. Make sure the port is open and not blocked by a firewall

The port doesn't actually get opened until you deploy a flow with an HTTPInput node in it to the broker.
Are you sure the flow deployed correctly?
Try restarting the broker.
Also, as mgk said - make sure there aren't firewall rules in effect.

No i have deployed the HTTP Input message flow in the broker. There is no firewall issue also because i'm testing this flow in my local developement PC.
After i deployed the flow to Broker, i dd a telnet to port 7070. But the connection was refused. Also as i mentioned before there is no reference of port 7070 in the "netstat -an" output. But i could see the portno 7070 value mentioned in the windows regisrty.
I guess due to some issues biphttplistener is not responding to requests. |

If the port is not open in netstat, then the biphttpservice is not listening properly. I know for a fact that the port does not get opened unless there is a flow actively deployed.
Again, make sure that the flow deployed successfully!
Does the Broker Domain show that it is deployed and running?
Are there any errors in the Event Log?

The problem was solved
When i went through logs, I found i was getting some saxon & xerces parsing errors in the Event Log.
I had placed my own saxon & xerces jars in the CLASSPATH and also had TomCat 5.0 installed separately.
I removed the aboves jars from the CLASSPATH and unistalled Tomcat too. Now i restarted the broker. Now Event Log says "HttpListener was started successfully on port 7070"
I think the problem was with the incompatiable jars in the CLASSPATH.
Thanks for the help. |
