Webtop Error by putting XML inside config folder

Raina

Hi,

I am doing the hello word from WDK tutorial 6.5.

I have created the hello_world_action.xml and helloworld_menu_configuration.xml file inside the following folder

“C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\webtop 6.5 SP2\custom\config”

After that when I am clicking the following refresh.jsp link http://localhost:8484/webtop 6.5 SP2/wdk/refresh.jsp

Then I am getting the following error

“Refresh was not done since the Configuration Service has not been initialized yet.”

And also my WebTop start path in application server it is coming false.

But when I removed the hello_world_action.xml and helloworld_menu_configuration.xml file, then my webtop is working fine.

NOTE: Before it was running fine when I kept both the hello_world_action.xml and helloworld_menu_configuration.xml file inside the config directory. But now its not working.

Can anybody help me on this?

Thanks a lot.

I suppose something is wrong within the xml files. Either they are not well formed or they contain a bad id or they does not contain a mandatory tag. When a config xml file is wrong, the whole webapp won't start, it's a fatal error.

Hi Miklos,

The following attached are the files that I have used for configuring Hello World.

Let me know.

Hi,

I think you missed only one small piece...

<config>
<scope>
<menuconfig modifies="menubar_tools_menu:
webcomponent/config/library/menubar/menubar_component.xml">
<insert path="menuconfig[id=menubar_tools_menu]/menu[name=tools_menu]">
<actionmenuitem dynamic = "genericnoselect"
name = "hello_world_menu_item"
id = "hello_world_menu_item"
value = "Hello World"
action = "hello_world_action"
showifinvalid = "true"/>
</insert>
</menuconfig></scope></config>

Please try it, I haven't done so.

Hi Miklos,

I have tried copying the XML code given by you eventhough its not working.

Kindly suggest me as to what should be the correct procedure for getting this onde.

Hi Raina

try this example and check it working or not

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I know this is old post. This might have been resolved.

But I think there can be two things wrong here:

1) Your XML might not be well formed. So if you are doing sample example, try copy pasting the lines, so that you can avoid some extra space.

Once you check that, try opening that xml file in Internet Explorer. If it opens correctly, then your xml if fine.

If it does not open in IE, then xml is not well formed.

2) While saving your xml file, try saving by giving double quotes , like this - "helloworld_menu_configuration.xml"

Now hopefully you will see below message upon enetering the URL: http://localhost:9080/webtop/wdk/refresh.jsp

"Configuration files reloaded..."
