Re: Problems while PUSH and PULL entity sync process in POS

How long did it try to sync before getting the error? Was it immediate or after a long time? I've had issues with initial synchronizations taking a long time, especially as the database gets larger.

I have not run into this specific error.

Subject: Re: Problems while PUSH and PULL entity sync process in POS

Hi Vince,

just now I was trying with all these settings. I got a long error concerned
with RMI when I tried to synchronize the Central Server with the following
setting in serviceengine.xml of POS Terminals:
<service-location name="entity-sync-rmi"
location="rmi://75.127.101.138:8088/RMIDispatcher"/>

Let me know if have also faced this during your early setups.

The exceptions are:

Re: Problems while PUSH and PULL entity sync process in POS

Hi Vince,

Sorry to use this old trhead. I was reviewing (and using)
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Sync+Setup+Notes+and+Example
But I wonder about 2 points: 7 & 9
7) Load XML on POS instance to trigger PULL sync
9) When pull is finished, load XML to trigger PUSH

What does "load XML" means exactly ?

Thanks

Re: Problems while PUSH and PULL entity sync process in POS

When I did my setup I used entity xml files. So that is the xml I am referring to. You could also configure it manually thru the UI but I'm not sure if there are screens for everything so some records might have to be added using entity data maintenance. If you are configuring multiple POS terminals I find it easier to create an entity xml file and re-use it.

Hi Vince,

I just noticed, you made an error while writing the doc (wiki page) I see you put the sequenced-id-prefix attribute in group-map,
should be in delegator.
I guess the xml you are referring to are files containing data to be synced, that's it ?

BTW, had you never to update older data ? I guess it could be done tweaking dates in entities tuples. Did you cross tis case ?

Thanks

Jacques
