Where/how can you verify the port for LSCS?

From the documentation, the default would appear to be 8080 - as in

http://<host>:8080/lscs/admin/debugpanel/index.html

I know at one of my previous projects they had it configured to a different port (I think it was something like 1876). The one common aspect between the two projects is that I did *not* do the initial installation and configuration, I'm just trying to help move things along now.

So - what I'm looking for is where I can find empirical evidence of exactly what port I should be attempting to connect to in order to check out LSCS.

Right now, if I try port 8080 I get the following in the browser:[indent]Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at fully_qualified_host_name:8080[/indent]As near as I can tell, their deployments are working - so I'm trying to figure out if I'm using the wrong port, or if there is something [more] wrong with their setup.

Is there a configuration file somewhere that I can reference? Presumably on the the target (LSCS/LSDS/WebSphere) side - right?

8080 is used (typically) for LSCS AT, 1876 for LSCS RT

Is anything running on port 8080 ? You should see JBOSS

There will be an lscs.log, can you find that ?

Also, debug panel should not be index.html

Did the browser add that ?

AT (on the TS server)

/opt/interwoven/LiveSiteCSAuth/log/lscs.log

RT

/opt/interwoven/LiveSiteCSRT/log/lscs.log

On my installs

(I forgot to mention - this is 7.2.1 - not 7.3x - and it's on Linux)

I get the same error if I just go to FQDN-of-target_host:8080 - it doesn't seem to be able to connect. (same for port 1876)

There is a JBoss running on FQDN-of-TeamSite_server:8080 - (not on 1876) but I get a 404 error if I try to go to .../lscs/admin/debugpanel there (which I think makes sense, since LSCS+LSDS are running on "target_host" - right?)

The "index.html" came from the manual (p. 25 ts_ws_71_install_plan_v01_en.pdf) - leaving it off doesn't help anything (doesn't seem to hurt, but it doesn't help)

AT (on the TS server)

/opt/interwoven/LiveSiteCSAuth/log/lscs.log

RT

/opt/interwoven/LiveSiteCSRT/log/lscs.log

On my installs

Hmm - on my TS server, there is a LiveSiteCSAuth/log directory - but no lscs.log within there (just deployment2.log and rolled versions of the same)

On my LSCS/LSDS/WebSphere server - I see a LiveSiteCSAuth/log/lscs.log - but it's 0-length.

Perhaps something needs to be restarted? (/etc/init.d/iwlscscontent ?)

OK, 7.2.1 and 7.3.1 are different.

AT and RT were split up in 7.3.1, which is what I have.

yes iwlscscontent is the startup for lscs, that is worth a try

Do any of the LSCS URLs work ? There are some in the manual, status, admin, etc).

I will look to see if I have a 7.2.1 VM with LSCS.

have you tried to connect to the debugpanel?

If you are trying to connect to the LS server that was installed on the TeamSite machine for preview/generate use:
http://**server**:8080/lscs/admin/debugpanel/

If you are looking at your "public" facing server try:
http://**server**:1876/lscs/admin/debugpanel/

Expand "admin" and select "status"

None of that seems to work on what I believe is the "public" facing server (this is a DEV / TEST environment right now) - neither does going to just the **server**:8080 nor **server**:1876 (and yes, I know "**server**" is not literal)

Restarting iwlscscontent updates the idol/service.log with things like:[indent]

...
SERVICE Performed hostname lookup and converted USERCLIENTS from [127.0.0.1,::1] -> [127.0.0.1,::1,::1].
SERVICE Performed hostname lookup and converted ADMINCLIENTS from [127.0.0.1,::1] -> [127.0.0.1,::1,::1].
...
IWLSCSContent v 7.4.4.0.306628

[/indent]I'm wondering why it's only using localhost values - but I don't know if that's the source of the issue I'm seeing or just a red-herring.
I see similar messages in the idol/logs/application.log, along with a bunch of:[indent]

...
ACI Server attached to port 10010

[/indent]If I use that port in an attempt to get to debugpanel I get:[html]
NONE
The action you attempted is not recognized
[/html]But the lscs.log remains 0-length.

On the public facing server is anything running on port 1876 ?

Thar is all configured through websphere, not LSCS. You need to be certain that LSCS is being loaded by WS.

You may try using lynx on the physical box and see if admin/status or anything else pops up correctly.

something like

lynx http://localhost:8080/lscs/admin/status

Can you try
http://localhost:8080/lscs/v1/admin/status

Adam Stoller

http://app-server:15060/lscs/v1/admin/status works (they configured the LSCS RT to use port 15060 here)

However, http://app-server:15060/lscs/v1/admin/debugpanel only gets me XML output - I don't get the query dialog which I thought you were supposed to get with that URL. Do I need the trailing '/' on the URI?

nipper

I do not remember if debugpanel is in 7.2.1 or only 7.3.1

What about the other URLs ?

If you give me a list of them, I can check them out.
I tried looking for them in the manuals, but the only one I seemed to find was admin/status

I have been able to conjure up some queries that work - but I'm not familiar enough with the syntax of the URI to do anything too fancy (I know about start=, and max=)

Check page 28 of the LSCS technical reference manual, it is for 7.1.

Thanks for the reference - this is one of my peeves about the Support site not bundling ALL of the documentation for EACH release.

I have a copy of lscs_70_tech_ref_v01_en.pdf - which seems to be what you were referring to.
