[AG-TECH] AG3 Bridge Problem [nclassified]

Wed May 9 18:19:45 CDT 2007

Thank you for the explanation Andrew. :-)

We are on an incredibly secure & strict network, so that means we don't
have access to the outside world. Therefore we have to use our own
registry and even our own jabber server for the chat. All the networks
ports are open. I am thinking it may have something to do with our
bridge registry, as I can't see my bridge server as being in that list
at any point in time. I will keep playing around and hopefully I may get
a little bit closed to the light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks for your help.

Boris

Hi,

It will probably work if you set
-registryURL=http://www.accessgrid.org/registry/peers.txt

There are actually three components in the bridge architecture in AG3.
These are the bridge registry, the bridge registry peer(s) and the
bridge servers.  The registry holds a (currently static) list of
registry peers.  The bridge server connects to the registry and gets
this list of peers.  It then tries each one in the list until one works
and then registers itself with this peer.  The client then connects to
the registry and gets the same list of peers and again tries each one
until one works.  The client then gets the list of bridges from this
peer and shows you them (currently just 10 of them).  You can run your
own registry and peer(s) but you would then need to change a hidden
configuration option in the client to point at your registry rather than
the ANL one (this will change in the next version where you will be able
to change this option in the client and even have multiple registries
specified).

Andrew :-)

Andrew,

Thank you for your time in answering my email.

The below log files all seem to be fine, I  included them in this email
for anyone to take a look. My Bridge.log file seems to be rather empty.
Even with me trying to connect to the bridge and use it, which
afterwards i get an error messege it still remains empty.

In my VenueServer.log nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. Would
these lines have any impact:

"05/09/07 11:03:08 3812 Security     authorizationmanager.py:491 DEBUG

25d62b22190f5d94217615414cc8e236 to role Administrators, it's already
there."

The bridge registry is on another machine, once I start my BridgeServer
script from my machine is it meant to add my bridge to the peers.txt
file?

Would it be worthwhile setting up another Bridge Registry to test
things? If so are there any documents posts about how to do so?

Boris.

Hi,

Take a look at the bridge.log file on the server (in C:\Documents and
Settings\<username>\Application Data\AccessGrid3\Logs) and in the
VenueClient.log on the client.  These usually tell you what is going
wrong.

Hey all, 

In our organisation we have in one location a Venue Server, Bridge,  and
a Bridge Registry which all works fine. In another location I am setting
up another venue server. So far I have successfully installed the
VenueServer, but my Bridge is not working. I run the Bridge server via a
batch file with the name, location and the bridge registry path of the
first Bridge Registry.

The script that I am running is: 
Cd "C:\Program Files\AGTk-3\bin" 
C:\Python23\python.exe Bridge3.py 
--registryUrl=http://mybridgeregistryserver:8080/AGBridgeRegistry/peers.
txt --name=MyBridgeName 
--location="My Location" --qbexec=./QuickBridge.exe 

All the Venue Clients are able to see my new bridge but all get an error
message when they try and use it. 
"Connection to the bridge <name> failed. Please use a different bridge" 

The Bridge is being run on the same machine as the Venue server, and
even the client on that same machine comes up with that same error.

All the machine do not have connectivity to the internet. 

Any advice would be much appriciated. 
Boris
