Question
I’ve successfully installed Job Scheduler onto my PC but I’m having trouble opening JOC.
I think when I installed it, I entered an incorrect JobScheduler host and port number. How can I verify host and port of JobScheduler?
Answer
You can check the JobScheduler host and port in the scheduler.xml file.
Configuration File
You will find this file in the following directory:
[SCHEDULER_DATA directory]\config\scheduler.xml
The default location for your SCHEDULER_DATA directory for Windows is:
C:\ProgramData\sos-berlin.com\jobscheduler
The default location for your SCHEDULER_DATA directory for Unix is:
/home/[scheduler_user]/sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler
See the section describing the differten set-ups in the JobScheduler Installation Manual for the default settings.
Configuration Elements
The port is listed in the config
tag:
<config mail_xslt_stylesheet="config/scheduler_mail.xsl" port="4444">
The host will be specified in the security
section that should look like this:
<security ignore_unknown_hosts="yes"> <allowed_host host="localhost" level="all"/> <allowed_host host="My-PC" level="all"/> <allowed_host host="192.11.0.27" level="all"/> </security>
Note that checks are made during the installation process to ensure that the host and port you specify can be used, so this is actually an unlikely source of error.
Ensure that the firewall allows the communication with the JobScheduler port in both directions.
