Hi,
so far I developed completey locally, having everything (Apache, Openfire, JSJaC application) on my laptop, running quite fine. Now I want to use remote server for Apache/Openfire. I did basically the same steps, incl. the whole http-bind stuff. I test the setting with simpleclient.html provided by JSJaC.
Now here’s the deal, if I use the simpleclient directly on the remote server - http://here.domain.org/simpleclient.html - it works. If I use it locally - http://localhost/simpleclient.html - and with the same settings I get an 503 (service unavailable). It seems to be more a network/Apache issue than Openfire/JSJaC one, but I’m not an expert.
My parameters for the simpleclient:
HTTP Base: http://here.domain.org/http-bind/
JabberServer: here.domain.org
So in my apach virtual host conf file I have the lines:
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
ProxyReqests On
ProxyPass /http-bind/ http://localhost:7070/http-bind/
What I tried so far
-
checked if 7070 open from extern: yes
-
checked etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost here.domain.org here
-
checked Apache conf for restrictions: can’t find any (but I’m not completely sure where to look at)
By the way, with,e.g., Pidgin I can connect from my laptop to the remote server. Just the JSJaC simpleclient won’t do. So I assume it’s the http-bind that causes the trouble. I would understand if port 7070 weren’t open, but it is.
Any hints or help are much appreciated!
