I was running an RTC server and build engine on a box in my home with ccm. Everything worked fine.

Then I moved home - today I have started up the same box on my new connection in my new location and when going to :

https://thinkbigapps.dyndns.tv:9443/ccm I am getting :

HTTP Status 500 -

type Exception report

message

note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/7.0.25 logs.

I also get the same error when going to /jts/admin.

The rtc works on the local machine its running on i,e going https://thinkbigapps.dyndns.tv:9443/ccm.....comes back with the correct webpage and services.

Please offer any ideas on stuff I can change or try to fix this.

I see, well the thing is - the rtc works on the local machine its running on...so what you are suggesting seems right, but how do I configure this correctly?!

did your router fix your dyndns.org address?

mine has a configuration for my dyndns.org address

and for my ISP, I had to ask for a fixed IP address as they don't allow inbound requests on the dynamic IP systems

Yes - and I am using the same router type and broadband service as before...

Hmm possibly..The server is mac osx and there mightve been some odd setups issues like that - will check I think you are onto something...

Andy Armstrong

I had an entry : 127.0.0.1 thinkbigapps.dyndns.tv so I think If i restart the server after all these issues and updating my router with the dyndns details it may work.

ok - no difference!

well its gettin thru to tomcat to throw those errors, so ping works. i think its a server side issue, just not sure what!

sam detweiler

Nov 19 '12, 6:00 p.m.

yes, I can see your tomcat page. have u reset the server? https://server:port/ccm/admin/requestReset

Andy Armstrong

Nov 20 '12, 12:23 p.m.

I have visited that page - to no avail...:(

Andy Armstrong

nslookup reports: C:\Users\Andy>nslookup Default Server: SkyRouter.Home Address: 192.168.0.1 > thinkbigapps.dyndns.tv Server: SkyRouter.Home Address: 192.168.0.1 Non-authoritative answer: Name: thinkbigapps.dyndns.tv Address: 2.218.141.240

an after running the requestreset, you need to cycle the server

Andy Armstrong

Nov 20 '12, 5:41 p.m.

Ahh right, ok, ill try that now

Andy Armstrong

Nov 20 '12, 5:52 p.m.

No difference, same issues...! :'(

sam detweiler

man you got tricky one.. all works on the local machine tomcat works on the remote port ccm can't be accessed. do you have a second machine inside home to access the server from? no router config changes, right?

Andy Armstrong

Nov 20 '12, 6:23 p.m.

Yes, and i get the same problems that you see connecting from a WAN. I.e from my desktop i go: https://192.168.0.5:9443/ccm i get the exact same error. Router config very little has changed. Admittedly I have a new router but I setup in the same way. I have 192.168.0.5 in the dmz, and thats pretty much all i would ever need.

sam detweiler

just for grins, what happens if you move this out of the DMZ, and use port mapping? maybe the router is mangling the uri I map an external port 1234 to my internal port 1234 (I normally use different values, but because RTC exposes the full public URI by default on subsequent requests I need to use the same values) localhost works cause it doesn't go thru the router.

Andy Armstrong

Nov 21 '12, 9:46 a.m.

Ok so: I removed 192.168.0.5 from DMZ - ip of server Added 2 new firewall rules : 1/outbound -> 192.168.0.5 : 9443:9443 to any address 2/inbound -> any address on 9443 to 192.168.0.5 No luck.

ok, well, more fun.. if u install a second instance (for test) on the same machine, does it fail the same way? this will be a new tomcat, etc...

Andy Armstrong

Nov 21 '12, 12:16 p.m.

I really wanted to avoid that, because a ton of projects which are needed on the existing setup! This is ridiculous what is causing the problem!!??!?!?!??!

sam detweiler

Nov 21 '12, 12:39 p.m.

I wasn't suggesting you REPLACE the existing server, just install a second one to test the connectivity.. It might help you zero in on the config issue. (which is what I think it is).. if the new server fails, then its NOT the server setup.. but something about the router probably. on my prior router config suggestion I wanted to know if the now NOT dmz server works from inside your house

Andy Armstrong

Nov 21 '12, 1:27 p.m.

On the not DMZ setup it acts exactly the same inside the house. I will need to spend quite a bit of time fiddling to get another server setup as I need to install on linux, then port across to mac in order to continue -_-

Andy Armstrong

Nov 22 '12, 6:31 a.m.

Right I started another server up and go to /jts/setup from localhost is fine, from any other host in my house i get the same old errors, So this suggests its network root cause java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in hostname at index 8: https://(null):9443 java.net.URI$Parser.fail(URI.java:281

Andy Armstrong

Nov 23 '12, 6:56 a.m.

I wonder if it has anything to do with https?? Do you think it generated something off my old IP address?? Why is it saying https://(NULL):9443 - why is it unable to get access to that piece of data. Do I need to do a reset of tomcat or somehow refresh it!?

sam detweiler

sorry, I have no clue.. I have taken my laptop with RTC server installed to different locations and have been able to access it remotely without doing anything using its IP address..
