what is command descriptors

paruntha

I am getting an error everytime I do a callServer function. The error message is this

Command somefile.ipl not found in the command descriptors.

The code I used for callServer is this

IWDatacapture.callServer("somefile.ipl",params);

Also, I used this code below as well, but did not get any response

IWDatacapture.callServer("http://" + server + "/iw-bin/somefile.ipl", params);

Thanks in advance

Please note that callServer is the client-Side mechanism. It works by sending asynchronous http request from the Data Capture Form
hidden frame. Usually but not always target Server is the TeamSite Web server, iwwebd(*). Therefore, call's first parameter must
be a valid URI to your CGI or servlet. Since "somefile.ipl" is normally not a valid URI in TeamSite(**), your first call syntax
is incorrect.

Your second code snippet is better. To make it work:

IWDatacapture.callServer("/iw-bin/somefile.cgi", params);

Next time you post, provide TS and Platform information.HTH(*) Callbacks are not available with domains other than iwwebd due to Browsers' Cross Domain security Model (**) Technically, you can remap "something.ipl" to valid URI using Proxy Server configuration but that's another story
