Thank you Guys. i was able to jump on the Webster+ default page. Due to the SSL certificate expired command was failing.

I jump on the system and tried to create the Admin and password but when i am trying to login i was getting attached error.

Do i need to move the files to specific location? right now all the Webster+ files are stored under /pxp/ezweb directory

Please help?

Also if i want to launch IDE from Linux environment can i do it from Pxplus console?

Did you open port 8080 on the Ubuntu firewall? 

Ubuntu, and to be honest almost ALL Linux distributions come with all ports blocked by some form of firewall.  The challenge is knowing how to unblock the port since not all Linux versions use the same firewall program/methodology.

What I generally find is the easiest is to run something like the following on the server to make sure the port is open and accessible:

OPEN (1) "[tcp];8080"
WHILE 1
READ RECORD (1,END=*BREAK) R$
PRINT R$
WEND

Then I go to an external workstation and issue:

OPEN (1) "[tcp]serverIP;8080"
WRITE RECORD (1) "Hello World"
WRITE RECORD (1) "Kilroy was here"
CLOSE (1)

On the server you should see the data written.

Should the OPEN fail you can generally assume the port is blocked (or you have the wrong IP address).

This approach will help identify if the port is open and accessible.

Could someone provide the complete steps to install Webster+ on either Apache2 or EZWeb on Ubuntu system? I tried to follow pxplus manual but no luck
In Addition can some explain how to tell it is actually running on the system? Right now i cant find a way to check that out.

Please help if possible. :)

Not working... Seems like port 8080 is not listening for EZweb..

Any thoughts?

so it should look like this?

/pxp/pxplus" "*ezweb/server" -arg 8080 "/pxp/sslcert.pem" /pxp/ezweb/docroot >/dev/null <>

Looks like the issue may be your path to a certificate /pxp/ is just a directory and not a .PEM file path.

When doing the Webster+ install make sure to use a path that includes the filename of the .PEM file.

When I run
/pxp/pxplus '*ezweb/server' -arg 8080 from the command line, I see the attached screenshot, 

but when I run
./ezweb_8080.sh-
Value in ./ezweb_8080.sh is
"/pxp/pxplus" "*ezweb/server" -arg 8080 "/pxp/" /pxp/ezweb/docroot >/dev/null <>
nothing happens, and I don't see any PxPlus process running after starting the EZ webserver.


hope this helps in understanding the issue. Webster+ for EZWeb is located in /pxp/ezweb, and I have the START_UP program along with other directories like Data, Prog, etc.

Do you think permissions could be causing the problem, or is it something else?

Davinder,

Your image indicates the system thinks you are running iNomads and not Webster+.  For Webster+ you need three arguments; the port, the PEM file (if running secure mode else ""), and the root directory for Webster.

So your .sh file should be something like;

 /pxp/pxplus '*ezweb/server' -arg 8080 '' /var/www/sitename/docroot

When I run EZWeb, I expect the PxPlus process to be running, but I don't see any process after running ./ezweb_8080.sh. I'm also unable to load the program for debugging because it is password protected. Any help would be appreciated.

 Hi Mike, I'm trying to run Webster+ with EZWeb and thought it would be simpler than Apache, where I choose the directory where the PxPlus license is installed. I ran ./ezweb_8088.sh, but when I try in the browser, nothing shows, although running /pxp/pxplus '*ezweb/server' -arg 8080 does display something in the browser attached below. Do you think any additional steps are needed for EZWeb too?
