Re: Help With Getting HTTP Server running

so logs are turned off (per the guide)... but just turned them on.

so, i think i need to clarify... i don't need an http endpoint setup to
accommodate a true webservice (detecting the various methods
get/put/post/delete)... I simply need an http endpoint that will allow an i
program to be called and accept a 65535 varying string and return a 65535
varying string.

The reason is because this company has already established methods for rest
API's.
I'm actually on the quest to put an end to jdbc/odbc queries by utilizing
an http server with an endpoint to accept above mentioned parms, use YAJL
to return output in JSON format and regain gatekeeper title of the i
database.

The whole webservice concept really just needs to be ignored.

so surely, someone has setup this type of endpoint before?

thanks

Hi Jay,

I don't see anything in that article that discusses the YAJLCALLR

utility. (In fact, I'm not sure that I ever documented that utility...
but, you're welcome to use it if you like it.)

At any rate, if the program isn't being called, then what is happening?

Are you getting an error? Are there messages in the
/www/your-instance/logs/error_log.xxxxx files related to it?

Continuing on this POC, I have deployed YAJL onto our system and also
compiled YAJLCALLR to YAJLREST.

Now I attempt to do the following from the browser, but it does not

seem to

reach our system and invoke YAJLCALLR *pgm.

http://ourSystem:port/rest/YAJLCALLR

Just to be sure I'm progressing down the correct logical path I'd

expect to

see the YAJLCALLR *pgm object with a last used date set - but it is

still

blank.

Has anyone else utilized this yet? What am I missing and

misunderstanding?

Thanks

Jay

1. Check for a joblog (QEZJOBLOG outq if you spool them).
2. Check the log files in the IFS dir for your server (usually
/www/serverNameHere/logs).

Subject: Help With Getting HTTP Server running

First off, our i is hosted.
Second off, there is nobody that really knows i server configuration
within our shop.

With that said, I just walked through the process of setting up the

http

server for use with yajl rest apis using Scott Klements guide
https://www.common.org/scotts-iland-blog/rpg-and-yajl/

The steps to setup were straightforward. However when I press the

green

server start button within the HTTP servers tab, it will not start -

as

soon as you refresh it is stopped.

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance,

Jay
