Plugin: Web User Interface for SageTV 2.2-6.6 (V2.25 18 Sep 2009)

Hi Nielm,

So I'm still not getting this running for some reason. Netstat has no entries at 8080 at all. I enabled the debug console and see the following:

Fri 11/19 10:20:32.332 GetProperty - nielm/webserver/log_access=true ->true
Fri 11/19 10:20:32.332 GetProperty - nielm/webserver/log_user_agent=true ->true

Fri 11/19 10:20:32.333 GetProperty - nielm/webserver/use_ssl=false ->false

thoughts? thanks so much!

Dewd,
I finally got a chance to install this web server and all I have to say is, you ROCK. Very nice, and great layout. I have no requests for bug fixes or added features, cause you got it right on the first try. Thank you for your effort and unexpected release of this.
I owe you a case of beers for this and your STV

[hoep]

Any chance to use this with 2.0.20 (since 2.1 does not work for me) ?

that shows my code is working, but it is unable to start the webserver code.. check that servlets.jar is in ProgFiles/java/r2rexxx/lib.ext
Also try starting the server outside of sage: in the sagettv dir, do:
java -cp . Acme.Serve.Serve (may give a clearer error msg)

[AndyS]

Neilm - is there a downside to running the server outside of Sage? I like the idea of a separate process, just in case there's a problem with the webserver it wouldn't then crash Sage.

if anybody has the SSL encryption working, can you show me what your "nielm/webserver/ssl_args" property looks like. I'm a little confused as to the format looking at the wiki and after trying a few different arguments and syntaxes i still can't get it running

[buck1952]

gotuitdan

servlets.jar java library is downloaded as servlets.zip, did you rename it to servlets.jar and copy it [not unpack it] to your Java\j2rex.x.x\lib\ext folder?

[AndyS]

Question - is the webserver capable of handling SSL and non-SSL at the same time? It would be great to have non-SSL available for use around the house, but SSL via the internet.

Andy.

[abasu2003]

from what i can tell, andys, it looks liek both are available at the same time. i just can't get ssl working.

EDIT: nope, totally wrong. also the reason why i couldnt' get it working

[gotuitdan]

Thanks all! I figured it out from nielm's response, and buck1952 was right... I had unpacked what downloaded as "servelets.jar.zip" into the directory. Changing the name to "servelets.jar" and copying it in worked beautifully.

thanks much... This is *excellent*!

[Hector]

Thanks for riding point on this, I made the exact same mistake

I agree, this IS excellent. Once again thanks for sharing your work Nielm.

peace . . .

[Crashless]

All I can say is WOW. I was sitting at work, trying to find the time to set this up because I thought to myself: "that is going to be tough to do." But I just set everything up in like 10 minutes. Only thing I haven't done is SSL, and that's next.

Wow. It even looks great on my treo 600 browser. Excellent work!

[Enormous]

abasu: The nielm/webserver/ssl_args line in my sage.properties looks like this:
'nielm/webserver/ssl_args=-keystorePass 123456'

This is assuming that I generated my key using all of the defaults as outlined here:
'keytool -genkey -keypass 123456 -storepass 123456'

I too was confused at first, until I realized that I didn't need to include any of the properties that weren't default. Hope this helps.

[abasu2003]

enormous,

I tried that argument and it didn't work.

Just to make sure I'm doing everything else right, I typed in the keytool command line that you have and pushed enter through all of the questions about my personal information. then in the Sage.Properties file, I added the ssl_args line, also changed use_ssl=true. Am I missing anything else? I'm just trying to get it to work locally at this point

EDIT: I should also mention that the error I'm getting is "Connection is being refused"

[gotuitdan]

I'm getting the same error that abasu2003 is getting. I've tried different ports, different keys, different sets of parameters, and the exact default from nielm. Even on the local computer running the Web server, I get the "connection is being refused" error. I'm experimenting with things, but no luck yet.

IIRC, "Connection is being refused" means that there is no server configured at the destination port. Using 'netstat -a' from a command prompt will dump the local port usage and you should be able to see if something is listening at the desired port.

[abasu2003]

So, I went into the logs, and I found that it couldn't find my key. For some reason it was looking for it in a system32 directory. So as one of my arguments, I specified the file (with the right "ajsdf~1" format) and now I have this error in the logs.

Reading request: Unrecognized SSL message, plaintext connection?

The above error actually shows up in the log when I try to access teh unencrypted server. When I access teh encrypted one, I still get the connection refused. I looked at nestat and its not opening the 8443 port for use.

EDIT: When I try to specify -port 8443, none of the ports open up. Is there another port I can use for the SSL? Cna you just randomly pick a number?

[gotuitdan]

I've tried 8443 and I've tried setting the port to 8080 (which works without SSL)... No luck yet.

[thatdude90210]

This is very cool. I did run into that .jar as .zip file thing for a moment though. Works great after realizing that, tested it out by using a dialup modem to get out of my network and was able to schedule a recording from that.
