Running test in virtual server in RPT 9.5

  • 1.  Running test in virtual server in RPT 9.5

    Posted Mon August 10, 2020 07:35 PM

    Hello,

    I used RPT 8.7 in the past and upgraded to 9.5 version. after upgrading, I am having issues with using data set when running my schedule in a virtual server I usually use to run my test. when I had 8.7 version of PT, I never had this issue. now, if there is a data set in the project, the test wouldn't even start. if I delete the data set from the project and hard code the value in the script, the schedule will run fine, but obviously I need to use data set to be able to use different login ID's each time. Any idea what might be the issue with this version? Thank you.

    can you click on the dataset in RPT and have the editor come up? If not then RPT can't bind to the port that the dataset uses, which is +1 of the agent port, e.g. the default agent listening port is 7080 so the default dataset port will be 7081

    If running on a remote agent location, scale down the schedule and see if the schedule can run OK on local computer.

    If so, I suspect a firewall between the remote agent machine blocking port 7081 between the agent machine and RPT workbench machine

    simple test is to put in browser http://<RPT host machine>:7081 first on RPT machine to see the expected output which will be a meaningless error message then see if on a browser on the agent machine gets the same results.

    If still having an issue please open a Salesforce ticket and we can help you

    Thank you
