Re: Help stopped working

That 49214 is the local port on pc, not on iSeries.  The help is powered 
by a local server on the pc.

You can try to see if you can start the help server on the pc manually:
1. In a DOS window, CD to  \WDSC\iseries\InfoCenter;

2. Issue the following command (or run the attached ic_start.bat script; 
pls check if there's a directory called
\WDSC\iseries\InfoCenter\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.help.base_3.0.1; if 
not, change the name accordingly(I'm not sure 
what the name is for V5.1.2.  This  org.eclipse.help.base_3.0.1 is for 
V6.0; it's probably the same for 5.1.2) :

".\jre\bin\javaw -classpath 
eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.help.base_3.0.1\helpbase.jar 
org.eclipse.help.standalone.Infocenter -eclipsehome eclipse 
-plugincustomization plugins\com.ibm.help.ic.doc\plugin_customization.ini 
-port 49214 -command start -noexec"
NOTE: remove the double-quote symbols from above command line! 




Thanks.

[WDSCI-L] Help stopped working






I posted this in the Code400 list But didn't get an answer so I'll try 
here. The help in WDSCi works but the help in code does not.
My help just stopped working. I get the CONNECTION REFUSED WHEN 
ATTEMPTING TO CONTACT LOCALHOST:49214 error. I am on winxp sp1 WDCSI 
5.1.2, I just made sure that I have all the updates installed that 
didn't help. I don't have a firewall running. I did a NETSTAT and didn't 
see any thing listening on port 49214. Is there a command I need to run 
to get some thing going. I looked in the archive because I know this has 
been a problem but could not find any thing that helped. I also check 
the HOSTS file and it looks fine.
   My help has worked with out any problem sense I installed this 
version months ago. I think the problem is that nothing is listening 
port 49214.
      Thanks for any help. Bill
