All,

I am doing development in design studio under windows. I've setup a few echo input cards that have aliases in them so that I can "back in" support for database credentials into current map. This worked in my design studio / windows environment.

After moving my RR XML files over to the server, I adjusted the dtx.ini file to point to the server configuration file. Saving and closing it, I then ran a map.

The aliases are not resolving, and WTX is acting like the there is no resource file, and just mapping through %Identifier% with the %'s. I have tried absolute and relative paths, as well as moving them into the same location as the dtx.ini file, all to no avail.

The maps are being run from the Java API, which I understand is the equivalent of command server. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks in advance,
Matt

It’s been a very long time, but I do believe….I’m not 100%...that even in the resource registry, moving from Windows to Linux will expect case sensitivity.

It may be that %Resource_Entry% will work as %resource_entry% in Windows, but NOT on Linux; it may have to match the case.

You also want to point all the mrc “areas’ (launcher, command, global) to all include the same mrn’s when running on a server.

Do you mean windows is your development area and linux is your run-time area? Or do you have both windows and linux run-time enviroments?

Windows is my development area, where I test locally using design studio. Linux is on our test, QA and production servers.

I checked the aliases and all three of them are correct.

I changed the dtx.ini (in wsdtx/config) file to point to the server configuration file for both launcher and command server, and I have global and command server settings in the server configuration file. The paths (all absolute) are copied and pasted, so I don't think there's a chance of them being incorrect, but I checked them anyway.

I also set the environmental variable DTX_LOG_RES_ALIAS, but no log is getting created. It seems to me like this environment is completely overlooking that I'm trying to use the resource registry.

I'm on 8.1, and I do not use the dtx.ini file for the resource registry.

This is my ini;

Execution

; this defines what resource configuration file to use for the Command Server:
;ResourceCfgFile=resource.mrc

All I do is set it up in launcheradmin, pointing the specific system to the mrc file. (attached pic)

Are you just using launcher?

Yes; just launcher.

I should add that the Java API is calling the run function, which specifies some other options.

Also, if I clear the configuration file out of the run options in map designer, but still have the dtx.ini file pointing to the same resource file, it fails in windows as well.
