Subject: Re: Navigator For i

Greetings! Couple of updates on this series of posts.

Chrome - Has to do with the JavaScript engine within Chrome, The underlying web widget support we are using right now is an older technology, Seems the new chrome JavaScript engine does not like the older syntax (yea, each browser has its own interpretation of the JavaScript syntax which is why some applications work better in one browser vs
another) , Currently, Navigator for i is supported on IE and FF. We are updating the underlaying support currently and will be supporting Chrome in the near future.

Checking your network on your system - With any Web based application, issue with the network configuration can cause issues with how your application runs and responds. One of the simple tools that we have provided is part of the Application Runtime Expert solution. We have included a free network verify tempate that you can call from Qshell.
Enter the following -
qsh

/QIBM/ProdData/OS/OSGi/templates/bin/areVerify.sh -network

This will run the network verify template. It will review your systems configuration to ensure everthing is confgiured as expected, it will then attempt to access each defined IP Address to determine the connection speed. You can then review the report to quicky see if your newwork setting are configured and working as expected.

Using the information here I fought this for a while using the Chrome browser. When I changed over to Explorer, it started to work. It also works in Firefox.

Can anyone tell me why Chrome is so stubborn?

Anyway, don't use Chrome to test the connection. You will just beat your head against a wall.

Pete,

Well then, I can recreate your error! Internally FrankieV is at
172.29.2.40 or V7R1Prod.Frankeni.com. If I access
http://172.29.2.40:2001 I get a log in but EVERY functions yeilds the
red(ish) box with TCTUI1003E. If I use
http://v7r1prod.frankeni.com:2001 then that works perfectly.

Here's the thing, MANY of the functions we use daily work Okey Dokey
when we use the IP address to access the server. IBM Navigator for i
is NOT one of those things!

So mostly you have it right, what you've not got correct is how
you're ACCESSING the system. If you think about apache and how it
directs inbound requests to the various servers you can have MANY
virtual hosts on the same server. Even Frankie (a lowly 170 on V5R3)
runs www.frankeni.com www.idevcloud.com www.iinthecloud.com
www.midrange.com and others. In order for apache to know which virtual
host to ring up it looks at the inbound URL. The IP address, however, is not a URL.

So try this as a simple solution. In your own local hosts file add
the
10.0.10.205 address with the FQDN of VASi5.valadd.com then in your
browser use http://VASi5.valadd.com:2001 and I think you will have a
'Kazaa' moment. :-)

The correct solution of course is to put that in your local DNS so
that you don't need to mess with host table entries on the machines
that access the server.

I was going to post about my woes in getting it set up on my LPAR's
as well so lemme ask a couple of questions....

When you say that the FQDN and IP match up, are you saying that the
Work
with TCP/IP Host Table entries must match (Option 10 on CFGTCP?).
Match
*what* exactly? And when you say test if from the IBM i partition,
are
you saying that it should be pingable or?

The IP address for the IBM i on my LPAR is 10.0.10.205 (at least,
one
of
the IP addresses assigned to the line description is). I have that
IP assigned to VASi5.valadd.com in the host table entries. When I
access Navigator from my browser on the local network I type in
10.0.10.205:2001 and I get a very nice looking log in prompt and
then see the menu. Basically every option on the menu returns
TCTUI1003E just like Buzz.

I DO get a security warning from Chrome that the certificate isn't
trusted when I access the page originally but that is about all I see.

I *just* put on the latest groups and CUME. Regardless of how and
when
I start the *ADMIN server, I always see this error. I always have
but it hasn't been a big deal since I use 5250j and IBM i Access
when I
have
to. But it would be nice to have this working......Web Admin and
DCM work fine. I just have never gotten Navigator to work.

Be very positive in no uncertain terms that the IP address used to
access the server and the FQDN for the server match up. Also make
sure
that the rDNS record matches that IP address. Be sure to test this
FROM
the IBM i partition. If these do not match many things (IBM
Navigator for i INCLUDED) will not work correctly.

Second be sure you have all the correct Java components installed
and have current PTF groups for HTTP, JAVA, TCP and that the HIPER
group
is
reasonably current as well.

Also if a lot of things start when your system starts and you don't
have
very many disk arms. Try ending and restarting the *ADMIN server
when the system isn't very busy. I have seen that on systems with
few arms where everything starts at once that the *ADMIN server
doesn't finish starting correctly and this is one of the issues that surfaces.

I make use of IBM Navigator For i (mainly in lieu of -not- being

to use
Ops Nav in iAccess For Windows on my Win 8 laptop). A week ago we
ported
over from a Model 520 to an 8202 (both @ v7r1). I now find almost
all
the
selections are generating server communication errors, namely
TCTUI1003E.
Google has not been my friend, so far. Has anyone run into this
problem?
