Greetings!

I'm sometimes getting this error: 1
Login failed
-3111

when envoking Oengine from the browser.

I believe it is caused by an oengine not being 'available'.

I believe there are idle oengines available, but their previous use was to a different log in.

I am licenced for 3 engines.

So, I want to know if I can get an idle engine to accept a new login or shorten the idle time so a fresh engine is always available.

ENVIRONMENT:

I use Apache web server

I have two Accounts/Applications in a single copy of OpenInsight

I have two 'htdocs' one for each web application (happyhome.org and thedce.com)

For a time each account was accessed only through a single web application.

i.e. thedce.com accessed the application DCE; happyhome.org accessed the application ARCS

I have my registry set up as follows:

…

RevSoft

…..OECGI3

………… ARCS

…………. DCE

(had to use …. as tabs and spaces removed when posting)

This worked very reliable when the applications were totally separate.

Now, the happyhome.org website has cause to access the DCE application and the ARCS application.

e.g. https://happyhome.org/ARCS/oecgi/inet_OZ?action_code=INDEXSTART&startpage_gov=index_desktop.html&schigh='+high+'&scwide='+wide

and https://happyhome.org/DCE/oecgi/inet_DCE?HHflag=1&ACTION_CODE=DCE_LOGIN&mtype=a&startPos=0&count=1000&libview=Albums&username="+username+"&password="+password);

(oecgi is really OECGI3.exe renamed) (/ARCS/ and /DCE/ map to Apache2's cgi-bin folder where OECGI3.EXE - renamed oecgi and the other required files for oengine are located)

This works much of the time but sometimes I get the error above.

Starting Oengine manually on the development machine, it appears that there is a log in failure even though there is an idle engine available.

Any advice?

Questions?

Have fun,

Paxton

Paxton,

I can't comment on the logic of when the OESocketServer.jar (OEngineServer Service) decides to launch a new engine versus re-using an engine but you might want to check your eserver.cfg has MaxEngines=3.

This assumes that there isn't another copy of OpenInsight running which could be connected to the same LinearHash server as OI running on a desktop session with the same serial number will count as one of the 3 engine licenses.
