[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Client Build Question

[Melissa Lefebvre]

Hi Dan,

 

I reran the autogen.sh and at first I received a bunch of perl errors.
After cross referencing the errors with the mail archive (which is a great
resource), I was able to correct those errors.  Another run of autogen.sh
produced the following (which I can't seem to figure out how to correct):

 

Updating fieldmapper

The list keeps going on repeating the same info for 

Updating web_fieldmapper

Updating OrgTree

Updating OrgTree HTML

Updating locales selection HTML

Updating Search Groups

Refreshing proximity of org units

 

To answer your questions the staff client I set up and installed was for
release 1_4_0_0_rc1 and I followed the instructions on the top part of the
page for the Windows client.  I am able to connect to the demo server
successfully.

 

I am just entering the hostname without the http:// portion although for
kicks I tried that too.

 

Thanks for your help,

Melissa

Hi, 

I'm new to Evergreen and am trying to get up a test server using
1_4_0_0-rc2, on Debian Etch. I've followed the instructions to install EG,
corrected the errors that I came across when running the settings-tester.pl,
am able to srfsh on the server with no errors, the OPAC page loads within a
browser (although I can't actually do anything like login to My Account - I
get a javascript void error) 

Sounds like autogen.sh hasn't been run. You might as well stop here and fix
this problem first (probably should add a check for that to
settings-tester.pl). 

but my question is how do I connect my 

Evergreen Staff Client on a Windows machine to the server? I tried the
instructions located at
http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-user:installing_and_runni
ng_the_staff_client
<http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-user:installing_and_runn
ing_the_staff_client&s=staff> &s=staff 

Which staff client did you download or set up on your Windows machine? What
instructions on that page did you follow? 

and it seems to have done something (no errors or warning messages) but when
I try to connect via the staff client I can't get passed the testing server
stage (message "There was an error testing this hostname"). I am not sure
what I am missing although I have a feeling it's something really simple and
obvious. Does the hostname need to have a particular path listed or just the
hostname? I've tried just the hostname and also just the server's IP. 

Are you entering "http://hostname" or "hostname"? The latter is what you
need to enter. 

Perhaps we should add a check in the client for "://" to warn about invalid
hostnames, or to ignore the protocol part. 

As a side note, I can get to the Local System Administration via a browser
on a windows machine, so I think EG is install correctly. 

That's a positive sign, at least.
