Deploying ofbiz on OpenShift issue with RMI

[HarisHashim]

I am attempting deployment of ofbiz to OpenShift. Lots of troubleshooting
has been done. After making some progress, I am stuck at configuring

ofbiz\framework\base\config\ofbiz-containers.xml

<!-- load the naming (JNDI) server -->
    <container name="naming-container"
class="org.ofbiz.base.container.NamingServiceContainer">
        <property name="host" value="0.0.0.0"/>
        <property name="port" value="1099"/>
    </container>

The way I understand it is that Openshift does not allow 0.0.0.0 ip. Hence
this cause port bind error. And complain about port already in use (but it
s not) when simply that ip is not useable.

My question would be

1. Is it OK to disable RMI in ofbiz? Assuming that internally Ofbiz is not
using RMI and I dont plan to use RMI at all.

2. How to disable RMI?

Thanks!
Haris

Hi Haris,

you can just remove (or comment) the <container> definition for "naming-container" from framework\base\config\ofbiz-containers.xml and do the same for the <container> definition for "rmi-dispatcher" from framework\service\config\ofbiz-component.xml
