Sync Setup not working

[Kash Bosco]

Good day Every one,
I am trying to implement the sync mechanism using the Sync Setup Notes
where i have a main server that is managed by the central store/ warehouse.
i have 2 server each with a database, and a POS terminals used for selling.
Management at each of these terminal/server requisitions for items from the
store when ever there is need. i followed the Sync Setup Notes and modified
3 areas (entity-sync-rmi, in the servece.xml, pos-containers.xml  where i
changed the facility id to 10000 and 10010 for the two terminals,
entityengine.xml
to include the sequenced-id-prefix="10010-1  and sequenced-id-prefix="10000-2
for the two terminal).
How ever,  1. when transaction are made the MCS server does not get the
inventory updates of each terminal. 2. The stores manager cannot
transfer/supply via purchase order each server with items so they are
running out of stock. 3. How best can i implement the requisition process.
Please advise where Am i going wrong.

Hi Kash,

You don't need to send to [hidden email] (you should not actually)

I did not get the time to review your question yet, but I did not forget and if you still need some help I hope to have a look this weekend

It's not clear here. I understand you have a main server (we call it MCS at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Sync+Setup+Notes+and+Example)
But what are the 2 servers, PSS or POS? And you speak about " a POS terminals", you mean only 1 machine?

OK I guess you have a MCS and 2 POS

What did you do in (I guess) framework/entityext/servicedef/services.xml ?
Did you change anything in framework/service/config/serviceengine.xml ?

How did you follow the flow/s, what mean/s did you use?

Thanks Jacques,
1. I am trying to implement POS - MCS
2. there was nothing done in the service.xml that wrote earlier i was meant
to mean serviceengine.xml
3. below is how i followed
This is how i followed the notice and example:
POS.

   - Setup POS terminal with database hosted locally


   - In startofbiz.sh/bat set RMIIF to localhost (uncomment the line.)

        *set RMIIF=-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=150.100.100.10found in
C:\Base\apache-ofbiz\tools*

   - Create empty ofbiz database and populate with seed data (ant
   run-install-seed).
   Note that for testing/learning you can load demo data as well.
   For a production environment you will need to only load seed, then do
   all of your organization specific setup such as accounting, facilities,
   stores, etc.

   *     This database is created on the machine having the POS application*

   - framework/service/config/serviceengine.xml - enity-sync-rmi set to MCS.








*<service-location name="main-rmi"
location="rmi://localhost:1099/RMIDispatcher"/>        <service-location
name="main-http"
location="http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/httpService
<http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/httpService>"/>
<service-location name="entity-sync-rmi"
location="rmi://150.100.100.10:1099/RMIDispatcher
<http://150.100.100.10:1099/RMIDispatcher>"/>        <service-location
name="entity-sync-http"
location="http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/httpService
<http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/httpService>"/>
<service-location name="rita-rmi"
location="rmi://localhost:1099/RMIDispatcher"/>        <service-location
name="eedcc-test"
location="http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/httpService
<http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/httpService>"/>*

   - Start POS instance(s) (the OFBiz instance(s) which runs the POS, aka
   POS terminal(s)) in standard mode (web interface)

        * I started the POS application with java -jar ofbiz.jar -pos
command*

   - Load EntitySync record for PULL on MCS instance (the OFBiz instance
   which runs the MCS)

*not sure on how to load this however i decided to load demo*
>

   - Load XML data you want to setup on POS instance to trigger PULL sync


*not sure on how to load this.*

   - Load EntitySync PUSH on POS instance(s).

*not sure on how to load this however i decided to load demo*

   - When pull is finished, load XML data you want to setup to trigger PUSH


*not sure on how to load this.*

   - Shutdown POS instance(s)


   - pos-containers.xml on POS instance(s) - set xui session id =
   <facilityId-pos terminal number> ex. 10020-1.

      * i set the POS <property name="xui-session-id" value="pos-1"/>*

   - pos-containers.xml on POS instance(s) - set faclility ID =
   <facilityId) ex. 10020.

      *the facility was set as: <property name="facility-id"
value="10010"/>*

   - Don't forget to change entityengine.xml on all POS instance(s) to
   include a prefix for record id's.

   Otherwise you will get record id conflicts when instance(s) push records
   to the MCS.
