Publishing front panels with web server

Hello,
I'm working with LabView 7.1 and trying to publish a front panel by means of the web server.
The problem is that I'm only able to connect to the VI through the internet when both , the host and the remote are networked. 
When I try with computers outside that network the browser doesn't find the webpage.
Thank you for your help
Lian

You need to know:
The public IP of your router.
The private IP of your LabVIEW server.
The port used by your server.
First you need to forward the port on your router. Basically, you need to tell the router that incoming NEW connections to a certain port of the public IP of the router should get forwarded your server. (Without forwarding, the router only works for outgoing connections). Once the port is forwarded, clients located on the outside need to connect to the public IP of your router.
Possible complications:
Your ISP might block certain incoming ports for security reasons. In this case you can configure a different port for the server.
With some routers you will not be able to connect to your server (for testing) with a client located on the same LAN via the public IP of the router. Only routers that incorporate a loopback proxy support this. What is the brand and model of your router?
Good luck!

  • Remote front panel with labview 8.6 executable

    I am trying to create a remote front panel of my application, built in an executable using Labview 8.6. I want to run that application on a target machine (not the one used for developing the project) and view and control the front panel of the VI from a web browser on another computer.
    I have followed these steps: 
    How can I use remote front panels with Labview Executables?
    But when I finally open the web browser and navigate to the URL I obtain that the page cannot be found.
    I have my Labview project created and I have built a web page using Web publishing tool. I have saved it in my Labview 8.6/www directory and added it to the project. I have built my executable including HTML file and copied all the obtained folders to the target PC.
    Then, I have modified the .ini file like in the step 7, but when I arrive to the step 8 I don't know what to do. Which  niwebserver.conf should I modify? The one localized at Labview 8.6 directory of the target machine? Or the one that is created in the directory where I have copied the executable when I run the executable?
    In the DocumentRoot tag  I have to replace the default Labview/www with the location of my HTML file. Should I use quotation marks or no?
    Have you got any ideas of what is happening?
    Thanks!

    Ok, but when I create the executable, in the folder where the application.exe and .ini are there isn't a file called niwebserver.conf. When I run the application a file with this name appear in the directory (the one I include), but it hasn't the section Directives that apply to the default server as in the manual.
    What I have done is to copy the niwebserver.conf file ubicated in the Labview 8.6 of the target machine in the same directory of the executable but it doesn´t work...
    niwebserver.conf

  • Publishing .shtml files to web server

    Hi,
    I am evaluating CQ5 to manage my web application having .html and .shtml pages (pages with SSIs, server side includes). I want to manage the web content - htmls, .shtmls, images etc using CQ5.
    I have following questions -
    1. Does CQ5 have any restrictions in publishing pages with extension .shtml?
    2. What are the best ways to manage these .shtml in CQ5?
    3. How do I publish these .shtmls to web server?
    Regards,
    vkp

    As a general rule anything you manage in CQ gets published to the web server via the Dispatcher plugin. Dispatcher functions as a reverse proxy sending request back to the publish servers and caching the result.
    As far as managing the .shtml items I am assuming that you want them to be generated and managed as pages in CQ with traditional component authoring interfaces. You will have two big challenges in this scenario:
    Sling request handling - Sling uses the extension to map a request to script. By default sling would consider .shtml to be different than .html and you'd need to name your JSPs appropariately. This could be problematic if you are reusing components across both page types. I have never tried this, but you could consider using the Sling Default Get servlet's alias configuration to map .shtml to .html which might work, but I have never actually done that.
    Link rewriting - you are going to have to write a layer of code that you use in your components to properly set the right extensions on the URLs when linking to these .shtml pages. By default CQ is just going to add .html. You will need to make sure you have some sort of way to tell in the page's meta-data whether or not it's an .shtml - perhaps based on template and then make sure you take that into account when writing out links. The rich text editor will be a challenge because adds the .html in JavaScript and stores it in the repository. You will have to override this in someway if you want to link to these .shtml pages in a rich text editor.
    In the past when I have needed to leverage SSIs through CQ I have just configured Apache to do do the SSI processing on .html to avoid these challenges. It means a heavier load on the web tier and it has some potential issues but generally is a better option than trying to get CQ to handle the .shtml extension.
    Also the other thing to consider is whether or not you really need .shtml files since CQ is pretty dynamic - usually you can figure out how to handle the dynamic assembly in CQ and not at the web tier (or using AJAX).
    Or did I misunderstand your plan - are you managing these as files in the DAM. If you are managing them as files in the DAM then you just have to make sure that you have a rendering servlet that will set the right mimetype.

    Hi ezam,
    can you define more clearly exactly what you would actually like to do, and ill have a further look into it. I think smercurio_fc has understood it as I have, and is right with the activeX.
    any way, give a shout back with exactly what you want to do and we see what we can do,

  • Best Way to Host Front Panel in Web Browser

    Hello  All 
               I am almost confused with all methodology that Labview have to host the Top Level front panel in Web browser. My requirement is to  Monitor and control the Front Panel from remote location using web browser, but without installing any LV Runtime engine in Client machine. Also I want to stream the Videos in same or different page. Which is the best way to do this?. Web-service or CGI 
    Thanks & Regards
    Rigilkumar 

    Rigilkumar,
    If you don't want to install the LV runtime engine, that rules out the remote front panels.  However, you should still be able to build a web service to do what you want. This will be a bit more tedious because you'll have to build a thin client to have an interface with the web service. You can find an example of a thin client built in Adobe Flex here.
    If you're looking at streaming video as well, I recommend you look over Streaming IMAQ Images Over a Network (or Internet)
    Hope this helps,
    Misha

  • BI Publisher not working with Web Cache

    BI Publisher not working with Web Cache
    I'm trying to enable BI Publisher to run from the internet. I have Web Cache (AS10g rel 2) in an internet DMZ, trying to work with BI Publisher running on a AS10g rel 3 server in a application DMZ. BI Publisher won't allow Web Cache to hide the URL after login. It tries to use the application server name as a URL and gets lost, since this is not resolvable from the internet. We have Content DB, other J2EE application installed in this same configuration, and it works fine.
    This is duty managed as of today. They required an enhancement request, which I submitted. SR 6696835.993 -

    Currently an enhancement - it was logged as that but IMHO its a bug as other Oracle products work OK - it kinda depends on whether its an ORacle strd to work with webcache or not. Suffice to say, we are investigating the issue and will update the er/bug soon.

  • Same object size (front panel) with different screen resolution

    Hi everybody,
    I realised an application, and I try to instal it on various computer. The probleme is that they haven't the same screen resolution, so the front panel is not the same on each computer. It is possible to build an application which have the same front panel with different screen resolution ?
    Kriss.

    Hi Krisss,
    switch off any "adapt to screen resolution" switches in the VI properties...
    You should also define "same front panel" and "same object size"! Do you mean the same pixel size or size in mm or size in percent of screen?
    Best regards,

  • Can Acrobat 9 pro be installed to XP with web server(IIS) without any license issue?

    It seems not to permit to install into window server, but how about the window XP had web server installed?

    Thanks for your reply. As I mentioned in my post, when I went to Control Panel to uninstall Acrobat 11.0, it wasn't listed among currently installed apps. However, after going back and looking through the Installed On dates in Control Panel, I realized that for some reason, it's called Adobe PFD Creation Add-on XI, rather than Acrobat 11.0. Interestingly, the program folder name in Windows Explorer still uses Acrobat 11.0.
    Fortunately for me, I always have disc versions of my software. So I was able to re-install Acrobat 9.0 once I got rid of Adobe PDF Creation Add-on XI. I really wish that Adobe made clearer what extras they are installing with these trial versions :-(
    Thanks again.

  • File Dialog's using Remote Panels (via web server)

    I am aware that the web server remote panel access will not allow us to open a file dialog box on a remote computer.  I have read people comment that you should create your own file dialog box, using LabVIEW to use instead of the file dialog box.
    Has anyone actually done this?  I would like know if anybody has source code for this, rather than re-inventing the wheel.  Also, will the sub-vi actually just appear on the webserver? i.e. will it actually work?
    Thanks for any help
    Slade

    Hi Emilie,
    I have a program that I run on an industrial PC, with no keyboard, video or mouse.  We currently control the application using the web server.  We have a button to load and a button to save settings.  If the files are missing for the load & save, it pops up a file open dialog to choose the file to import.  However, while we are viewing the page this way, these dialog boxes do not work.
    I would like to know if anyone has made up a file dialog box that I could use, that would display correctly in the web server's remote control.

  • Security issue with web server plug-in with Weblogic server

    Hi,
    I have a setup where I have an Microsoft IIS setup as the front facing web server and have the WLS IIS plug-in installed on it. At the backend, is two WLS11g managed servers in a cluster.
    I have a JAX-WS client running on HPUX hitting the web service via IIS but I observe a very strange thing. When the service request is rather small, it could pass through IIS and the managed servers could pick up the call and reply correctly. However, when I have a bigger request call (larger payload), it will error out, citing "Unsupported Content-Type: text/html Supported ones are: [text/xml]".
    I have also attempt to put in a TCP/IP Monitor between the client and IIS and it appears that regardless if the call gets through, it seems to consistently got hit with a HTTP error 401.2, follow by a 401.1, and then, the WSDL came back. I am pretty sure that the web services are not secured as I could get the WSDL without any authentication on the managed servers direct from my brower (it did pop the authentication window if I attempt to hit the web services via IIS)
    Anyone has any idea what is going on, the issue seems to be so contradicting...
    Thanks in advance.

  • Certificate request not working with web server v2 template on windows 2012 R2

    I have tried to generate a certificate request on my domain joined Windows 2012 R2. I have tried both online and offline requests. I am using the web server v2 template.
    Both Method fails with error message that the cryptographic algorithm is unknown. I am using these settings apart from the template:
    This is the error Message in online request:
    The error Message in the offline request is somewhat similar.
    An event error is also appearing in the application log:
    The CSPs from the template:
    I am wondering if a cryptographic service provider or several of them are missing? They are installed With Windows update are they not? The strange thing is that this supposedly have worked before with another user. Could it be that I do not have the
    correct permissions to request a certificate with this template, or has something happened with the server? 

    Hey dag 
    Thanks for posting ,
    If You try duplicate the web template for using it in version 4 - can You see any difference? 
    Also check the link below for certificate templates versions:

    In previous operating system versions the configuration of CSPs and KSPs were on different tabs in the certificate properties. For version 2 certificate templates, CSPs were configured on the Request Handling tab. For version 3 certificate templates,
    KSPs were configured on the Cryptography tab. Starting in Windows Server 2012, the configuration of the providers is consolidated on the Cryptography tab. To learn more about the cryptographic provider options present in previous operating systems

  • Programmatically Open a Remote Front Panel with Panel Open Method

    Hi,
    I am trying to open the front panel of the VI on my cRIO-9024 through a remote computer. Currently, I am able to run the VI with no problems with the RUN VI method; however, when I try to open the front panel, I receive "Error 1043 - This property or method is not supported in this version of LabVIEW" or the Front Panel is simply not visible. My cRIO is configured to allow TCP/IP protocol, The VI is visible, and I have made my project into a source distribution on my cRIO.
    Any help or suggestions regarding this problem would be great. I am very new to LabVIEW.
