Cannot connect the Designer to the Runtime

Symptom

The Designer cannot connect to a Runtime.

The Runtime is up and can execute deliveries.

The Runtime server can ping the Designer's machine, and vice versa.

Solution

Edit the file stambiaRuntime/properties/engines/commonParameters.xml on the Runtime server.

Change the following line:

<!--<parameter name="rmiHost" value="localhost"/>-->

to this:

<parameter name="rmiHost" value="<hostname of the Runtime server>"/>

And then restart the Runtime.

 

If it does not work, try with the IP address instead of the hostname :

<parameter name="rmiHost" value="<IP address>"/>
