Remote execution problem

Message posted by maybe David on 2002/02/14 22:56:49

I have instlled one pliant system in my windows98 and try the remote execution function. I got the following error message: "This computer has no private key ! This computer does not know hubert.fullpliant.org public key ! Cannot access hubert.fullpliant.org through the network !" Does it mean that I have to get the private key from the remote server irst? Another question is about the procedure to get the key? And since my computer don't have valid domain name, is it neccessary for pliant remote execution through internet?

I couldn't understand what is the necessary set up to make the remote execution work. I have done everything the "Configuration wizard" suggests. The only message left in the "configuration wizard" is: There is no DNS provider defined, so mails forwarding will not work. But when I try to test the remote execution settings via /pliant/util/remote/remote.html it says Cannot access ... through the network ! Mind you that I have set to 'Yes' the remote execution setting.

Is your system the fullpliant system? I am wondering if the remote execution function can work only under fullpliant systems.

Nop. I wonder if Master Ingo Hohmann can solve this riddle....

Hubert seems to be an vacation. From what I have understood, the sites using or allowing remote execution should have a secret/public key computed. Thatfor, you have to go the "Configuring the server"/"Sites"/... page and click on the "Generate" button after the field public key if you don't have one. This has to be done for the server and the client machine. Create in each of the computers an entry for the other machine, in the "Sites" page: in the configuration page of the site, precise the name of the server (that is the machine hosting the site, should be probably the same as the site name) and paste the public key computed for this computer. Now, in the "Configuring..."/"Remote execution" page of the server, you should allow remote execution from the client machine. Good luck!

For the public key, paste from where to where? And if my computer don't have a domain name, can I put my IP address as the server name in the site page?

Thanks for the information, Patrice. I tried exactly what you suggest, but I am still unable to execute things remotely. When I try to test the remote execution via the Remote Execution Administration site, the system returns the message: Remote execution service is not running on "mycomputer" ! Any suggestions? Regards

> Remote execution service is not running on "mycomputer" ! If you are running Pliant services through: pliant module /pliant/fullpliant/run.pli then you have to go to 'Configuring the server' 'Remote execution' 'Remote execution global settings for this computer' and set 'Remote execution service' to 'Yes', then restart Pliant. If you are running Pliant HTTP server directly through something like: pliant module /pliant/protocol/http/server.pli command http_server then you have to change it to: pliant module /pliant/util/remote/server.pli command 'remote_server detached' module /pliant/protocol/http/server.pli command http_server

I followed your instructions (running Pliant HTTP server directly). It works if I log on (via browser) to my remote computer (my.remote), go to 'Configuring the server' 'Remote execution administration',provide the name of the computer and click on 'Test remote access'. The system says: Everything should be ok However, if I log on to my local computer, which has all the information about the remote computer, and try to do the same as described above, it does not work. The systems says: Remote execution service is not running on my.remote ! Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, Hubert. I tried as your saying to start pliant http server with remote execution service, and configured exactly as Patrice instruction, but the problem still exists.(the remote computer has a valid name on internet, and the local computer don't have a valid name so I use mycomputer.com with the valid ip address&port) On the remote computer, entered the mycomputer.com in 'COnfiguration'->Remote execution administration' and clicked 'Test remote access'. The system told me: Cannot access mycomputer.com through the network ! On the other hand, in the local computer, I entered the remote computer's name and was told: Remote execution service is not running on thebe.scs.ryerson.ca ! Sauron has succeeded on one way. But my problem existed. Is it because my local computer don't have a valid internet name? But I even set the ip address and port number in the sites for mycomputer.com on both sides.

This seems to mean that the remote execution is runing on your local computer and not in the remote one. So, remote computer is able to execute on the local one, but not the opposite.

Message posted by maybe Sauron on 2002/02/18 12:29:42

Let me try to explain in a different way: let my.local and my.remote be two computers (sites) that have been set up so that my.local can execute things remotely on my.remote. To achieve that, on my.local I have defined a site for my.remote and also have generated/copied the necessary keys. My.remote was set to accept remote execution. Moreover, my.remote and my.local have been started using: pliant module /pliant/util/remote/server.pli command 'remote_server detached' module /pliant/protocol/http/server.pli command http_server When testing the remote execution of my.remote via http://my.remote/pliant/util/remote/remote.html then typing in my.remote and pressing 'Test remote access' The systems says: Everything should be ok. However, when testing the remote execution of my.remote via http://my.local/pliant/util/remote/remote.html and typing in my.remote then pressing 'Test remote access' (i.e., I am trying to test the remote execution settings of my.remote while logged in as manager of my.local.) The system says: Remote execution service is not running on my.remote ! Now replying to the forum messages: > your local computer cannot execute remote instructions on my.remote > because the remote execution service is not running on my.remote But I *was* running the execution service on my.remote, as you could see above. > This seems to mean that the remote execution is runing on your local > computer and not in the remote one. So, remote computer is able to execute on the local one, but not > the opposite. Actually, I was running the remote_server on both. And this raises another question: Do I have to run the remote_server on both ends, or just the remote computer has to be started using the remote_server command?

> But I *was* running the execution service on my.remote, as you could see above. So, you have TCP connection trouble, that you should resolve first, as specified earlier: In the new status page, the 'details' link in the 'Network' line will bring you a 'Check connection' section. Just use it to test if the problem is name resolution or something else.

I just did. And finally I have found the glitch: I had forgotten to define the my.local site at the my.remote machine and copy my.local's key to it's entry on my.remote. Now /pliant/util/remote/remote.html says it's ok. However...something is not right. To test the remote execution, I have changed /pliant/util/remote/sample.pli as follows function foo x y t -> z arg Int x y z ; arg_rw Str t console "computing..." eol remote "my.remote" control c c="my.local" z := x+y t := string x*y console "finished" eol gvar Str t console "foo result is "+string:(foo 3 5 t) eol And tried to run it from my.local, but it didn't work properly. After taking quite a bit of processing time, here is the output I get: Linux prompt $ ./pliant-debug0.exe module /pliant/util/remote/sample.pli Remote execution server is running. (detached) computing... foo result is -1073744336 t is Remote execution server is down.

Use the trace: select 'trace' in the home page (you need to have administrator rights), then specify /pliant/util/remote/ in 'Path to trace' and press 'Display' button, and finally have your sample remote function executed.

Ok, the module /pliant/util/remote/mysample.pli is not loaded on my.remote You have two solutions: . either you get it loaded through inserting module /pliant/util/remote/mysample.pli in your already long command line (before module /pliant/protocol/http/server.pli ...) . or you rename it as /pliant/util/remote/mysample.remote and it will be loaded automatically (any module with .remote as extension will be loaded automatically when a request from a client is received)

I have tried the second option, and received the following message from the tracer: /pliant/util/remote/server.pli/command call /pliant/util/remote/mysample.remote foo /pliant/util/remote/server.pli/failure function /pliant/util/remote/mysample.remote foo is not available on my.remote

So, did you rename /pliant/util/remote/mysample.pli to /pliant/util/remote/mysample.remote on my.remote also ?

Yes, you nailed it right on the head! I had forgotten about this detail. Now it works just fine. Thanks for your help. I will compile this long sequence of messages into a HowTo tutorial. Perhaps it would be interesting to post it at the PDI (Pliant documentation Iniative) site.

Actually, "almost" everything worked fine. Once the remote execution call resumes, the my.remote server is down.

Message posted by maybe Hubert Tonneau on 2002/02/18 22:55:38

The stack says that something broke the memory through poking outside the allocated area. Might either be a direct poke outside bounds, or a missing semaphore on a shared structure. Not very informative anyway. What's surprising me is that I use the remote protocol for Heliogroup and had no server crash after several days, so many many remote instructions executed. Try using debugging level 2, just in case it would be more informative.

Looks like bugs repported at debugging level 2 are not related to the remote execution. I really need to publish a release 72 now to get everything clean.
