Accessing CLM from a browser via server URL

Torin Denniston (15●8●10) | asked Mar 27 '14, 11:28 a.m.

Hello everyone,

I have a Jazz Team Server that I recently installed with a public URI that should be accessible from a broswer on another computer. The URI follows the following format:

https://[server IP Address]:9443/jts

However, when I put this URI into a broswer on another machine, I am unable to access the Jazz Team Server.

Did I improperly set the URI to make it accessible? I need for my team to be able to access RTC, RRC, and RQM from their own computers, since we can only have one person signed into the Remote Desktop to access the server at a time and multiple users will need to be in the repositories at once.

Thank you in advance!

can u get to it via IP address?

is the server NAME in your company DNS server? and does it take u to the right IP address.. RTC will jam the public URI into every response. so it HAS to resolve

Hello Sam,

I can only access it via IP address if the port number is included in the URL. This is true even when accessing from the desktop for our server.

and u put the port number in the public URI? you must

Yes, the port number is included in the public URI.

I'd rather not share my server's IP address, but here is how my URI reads:

https://Xx.Xxx.X.Xx:9443/jts

and that works from your browser? using the ip address and port number?

and doesn't from someone elses?

Correct. It works in the browser from the server remote desktop, but not from the browser on any other computer.

This sounds like a network issue. Is the RTC server pingable from the host running the browser?
Or is there a firewall blocking the connection?

also try from the machines you have the issue typing:
telnet server 9443

I can ping the server's IP address and it returns the following:

Ping statistics for [IP Address]:

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss).,

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

Minimum = 29 ms, Maxiumum = 32 ms, Average = 30 ms

Yes, the rul should work. What error is the user getting?
I would suggest attempting to ping or telnet from the remote machine where the browser is running to the server hosting CLM.

I am getting a generic "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page" error in IE, "The web page is not available" in Chrome, and "The connection has timed out" in Firefox.

is this a VM image. The reason I ask is that if there are multiple vm images being created, sometimes they end up using the same IP/host name and this can cause problems where requests are being routed to the incorrect host.

It's all about the answers!
