Remote Access using AppBuilder 9.1D08

[davidgo]

I have just moved my independent development and test environments to a consolidated server. As such I have had to "consolidate" the webbrowser as well.

We used to have Apache WebServer 1.3.6 running on independent boxes and it worked fine. I have merged them now using VirtualHosts on the new server and found out that the Appbuilder can no longer support the two environments. I've discovered that the OCX the AppBuilder users communications with HTTP/1.0. This does not send header information and as such cannot work with multiple virtual sites.

I have configured it to work with the dev site by putting the DEV VirtualHost definition first.

Any ideas on how I can get this to work with multiple sites?

You can do this. Look at the apache docs here and add the serverPath directive to allow http 1.1 non-compliant clients to access your vhost.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/name-based.html

You will need to change your appbuilder url in the setup from something like this:
http://www.myvhost.com/cgi-bin/wspd-cgi.sh

to something like this:
http://www.myvhost.com/mypath/cgi-bin/wspd-cgi.sh

There are also progress kb entries on this.
