Error while registering web provider

Question

Hello
I have a web provider developed in JPDK. I have deployed it successfully to an Standalone OC4J and I can access a page that says something like that:
Oracle9iAS Portlet Application Test Page
This page lists the portlet providers available in this web application. Use the registration URL in combination with the provider's service name to register the provider. Click on the service name link to view the provider's test page.
Registration URL http://myserver:8888/intranet/providers/
Service Name
provideredd
providergenerales
provider_edd_desarrollo
But when I try to register the provider in portal with the registration URL I got the error:
An error occurred when attempting to call the providers register function. (WWC-43134)
The following error occurred during the call to Web provider: 500: Internal Server Error (WWC-43147)
I'm sure my OC4J is up and running because I can acces the url http://myserver:8888/intranet.
Please help me.

I have a similar problem where I have portal installed on a machine called portal.mgmt, which is on a network that users cannot access. Connection to portal.mgmt can only be made from our local network via a machine called install.mgmt. In a sense I guess it is acting like a reverse proxy or firewall.
I have run ssodatan on portal providing the install.mgmt URL and can access most of Portal pages navigating to http://install.mgmt/ except any of the servlets. Actually the only servlet I can access is the sample IsItWorking servlet.
In my java jserv.log file I am getting the following error:
java.net.SocketException: Connection reset by peer
at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketAvailable(Native Method)
I can only assume, from reading the Troubleshooting guide as mentioned above, that portal.mgmt is trying to make a separate connection to the install.mgmt box and is failing.
The network between portal.mgmt and install.mgmt is very restricted as to what can be run and what protocols and ports can be used. Is this restriction causing the problem?
I see that Jserv uses port 8007, is this port used to communicate between machines?
Are there any ports that need to be opened?
I have tried using another machine called ogg as the firewall/access server and get the following error as well.
java.net.UnknownHostException: ogg
at java.lang.Throwable.fillInStackTrace(Native Method)
Any help on this one would be very much appreciated, as I am very stuck at the minute.
Regards,
