WSRP FAQ

Here is some of the frequently asked question, Consider contributing to them.

1. WSDL URL always points to local host and port 8080, How do I change it ?

The edit option of WSRP Consumer and WSRP Producer admin portlets provides options to change these default values, Upon installation change these values to you hostname and port.

2. Edit of WSRP remote portlet is disabled or not available

Some WSRP producer implementations do not allow edit option for authless user, So the WSRP testdriver does not provide options to edit a portlet for authless users. Pls login to the test driver using the Sign-in option then you should see the edit options for remote portlets.

3. Compiling on MAC gives tools.jar artifact not found

MAC does not have tools.jar bundled with the JDK, The workaround is to change the pom.xml under wsrp/common directory to point to classes.jar rather than tools.jar. Here is a change snippet

Change:

<systemPath>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath> 

To:

<systemPath>/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Classes/classes.jar</systemPath>
