LAPI issue "server did not accept open request"

Hi,

I am a newbie in Lapi. I have used sample code to access contents in a personal/enterprise workspace using LAPI.
However, when i try to run status = documents.AccessPersonalWS(pwsInfo), I receive an LLIOException with "Server did not accept open request." as error description.

With lot of search on google, Opentext knowledge center and tek-tips.com, I came across adding and changing timeout parameter in [sockserv] section in opentext.ini file. But, it also didnt resolved the issue.

Here, is the sample code that I am using.

public class AddDeleteDocument {

public static void main(String[] args) {

try {

LLSession session = null;

LAPI_DOCUMENTS documents = null;

int status = 0;

int nodeID = 0;

int parentID = 0;

int nodeVol = 0;

int parentVol = 0;

LLValue pwsInfo = (new LLValue()).setAssocNotSet();

LLValue objInfo = (new LLValue()).setAssocNotSet();

LLValue versionInfo = (new LLValue()).setAssocNotSet();

LLValue pwsInfo = new LLValue();

LLValue objInfo = new LLValue();

LLValue versionInfo = new LLValue();

// Instantiate session object

session = new LLSession("localhost", 8181, "LivelinkDB",

"Admin", "adminpwd", null);

// Instantiate documents object

documents = new LAPI_DOCUMENTS(session);

// Access the user's Personal Workspace

status = documents.AccessPersonalWS(pwsInfo);

if (status == 0) {

System.out.println("Accessed Personal Workspace");

parentVol = pwsInfo.toInteger("VolumeID");

parentID = pwsInfo.toInteger("ID");

}else{

System.out.println("Unable to access workspace.");

System.exit(0);

}

catch (Throwable e) {

// Display exception

System.err.println("Application encountered an exception:");

System.err.println(e.getMessage());

e.printStackTrace(System.err);

}

And, here is the error I am getting:

Application encountered an exception:

Server did not accept open request

com.opentext.api.LLIOException: Server did not accept open request

at com.opentext.api.LLConnectRouter.receiveOpenResponse(Unknown Source)

at com.opentext.api.LAPI_DOCUMENTS.AccessPersonalWS(Unknown Source)

at com.livelink.opentext.AddDeleteDocument.main(AddDeleteDocument.java:37)

Any help will be appreciable.
Thanks in adv.

I suspect it is your instantiation that is failing. This is what I use to instantiate a new session:

session = new LLSession( host, port, "", user, password );

If you changed from PersonalWS to EnterpriseWS, do you still get the same error?

You might want to do some basic network troubleshooting or just re-startlivelink services and make sure you can see it from the GUI

In your code

session = new LLSession("localhost", 8181, "LivelinkDB",

"Admin", "adminpwd", null);

Mostly nobody passes that DFTCONNECTION info so it could be

session = new LLSession("localhost", 8181, "",

"Admin", "adminpwd", null);

When somebody installed livelink did they choose 8181 as the lapi port.

If you have access to the server’s opentext.ini which is in configfolder

Port=2099 //I left defaultswhich was 2099

Server=localhost

Network troubleshooting you can do if you have a telnet client

If the lapi port is listening

telnet localhost 2099

will show some gibberish or likea hung feeling as opposed to

C:\Users\lledmst>telnet localhost 2099

Connecting To localhost...Could not open connection to the host, on port2099: C

onnect failed

Note the telnet will timeout and return to command screen if yourlivelink server

did have a port that accepted your connection.

I got the error because I had not started livelink so port 2099 was notbound.

BTW if you can get the webgui to work that is also talking to the sameport or in other words

if you see the webgui but cannot then there is something wrong with yourinstall or some firewall

problems in which case you probably cannot use livelink form the web aswell.

Here's another command to troubleshoot if you google you can find whatthey all are

netstat -ano |findstr 2099

Since I am looking for activityagainst 2099 I am using that

A word of caution that I offer most newbies into this.OT has basically said to programmers to use the new webservices api in lieu of LAPI which is considered deprecated.

..Appu

I wonder how one could debug livelink if Fiddler, Wireshark and Softerra LDAP browser was not invented and not free
