2.1.5 Error

[RussCraig]

Hi All,

I've recently upgraded to 2.1.5, and opted to use the manual updates to the httpd.conf file as we use SSL. Since upgrading and changing the file, I now get the following message at the top of my browser:

Code: Select all

[an error occurred while processing this directive]

The SSL security warning with Internet Explorer seems to have been fixed, but I am now receiving this message at the top of every browser window. Also, I still cannot Export to Excel using IE, I receive the same error as before:

Code: Select all

Unable to download PUI0009106.pgm from xxxxxx.xxxxxx.com.

Unable to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found.
Please try again later.

Again, the export works fine with Firefox.

I've recompiled my screens and programs, restarted the PUI server instance, running without "workstnid" and "suffixid", all of which result in no change.

Thanks in advance,
-RC

[RussCraig]

Also, are we missing step 4 in the manual instructions?

Thanks,
-RC

Are you sure you added the directory section to your httpd.conf file properly? Are you using the default location (show below and in the manual instructions)?

Code: Select all

<Directory /www/profoundui/htdocs/profoundui/userdata/html/>
SetOutputFilter Includes
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>

I will post my httpd.conf file with private data redacted:

Are you getting the message [an error occurred while processing this directive] when you are using the visual designer, or when you run an application?

[RussCraig]

Only when I run an application.

We have added a Server Side Include into start.html as part of the custom widget feature in this release. The http configuration changes were to allow Server Side Includes.

There were some SSI issues in early releases of V5R4 for which PTFs have been issued. Can you check to see if you are up to date on all PTF releases for the web server.

You can temporarily remove the line that starts with <!--#include from your start.html This will remove the message but will of course not solve the problem

I'm getting the same error at 2.1.6 and I'm on i5OS 6.1.

Here are some additional details:

When I use "/profoundui/start?pgm=" my custom widget works, but I get the error:


When I use "/profoundui/start.html?pgm=" my custom widget doesn't work and I don't get the error, even though the SSI statement is in my start.html:

Unfortunately Server Side Includes proved too unreliable. On some sites they work perfectly and on others not at all, even with identical http configuration files. Because of this, we removed the use of SSI in version 2.1.6. I suggest you download the latest version. There are some instructions to manually to remove the SSI components if you do not install the new http config file.

Note: In version 2.1.6 , the URL start.html is changed to just start The old URL will still work but if you want to use custom widgets you will need to use the new url.

old url:
http://IPAddress:8080/profoundui/start.html

new url:
http://IPAddress:8080/profoundui/start

[Bryan641]

Oh, thanks. I'm at 2.1.6 but I still had the SSI in the html. I'll remove it.
--Bryan

[edit]Hmm. Now that I think about it, maybe I added it back into start.html from my copy, when I noticed it went missing. Probably my bad there. Thanks again!
