B4J Question Converting PushServer Non UI to UI

[Gabino A. de la Gala]

I'm trying to convert PushServerNoMySQL to UI application.

In debug mode it runs perfectly.

The problem only appears in release mode when I refresh the browser:

'WebSocket class
Sub Class_Globals
    Private ws As WebSocket 'ignore
    Private btnSend, txt As JQueryElement
    Private users As JQueryElement
    Private tblMessages As JQueryElement
End Sub

Public Sub Initialize
Log("->PushBrowser/Initialize")   
End Sub

Private Sub WebSocket_Connected (WebSocket1 As WebSocket)
Log("->PushBrowser/WebSocket_Connected")
    ws = WebSocket1
    CallSubDelayed2(PushShared, "NewBrowserConnection", Me)
    tblMessages.RunMethod("dataTable", Array As Object( _
        CreateMap("bFilter": False, "bPaginate": False, "bSort": False, _
            "bAutoWidth": False, "aoColumns": Array As Object(CreateMap("sWidth": "20%"), CreateMap("sWidth": "80%")))))
    UpdateMessagesTable
End Sub

Private Sub btnSend_Click (Params As Map)
Log("->PushBrowser/btnSend_Click")
    Dim f As Future = txt.GetVal
    Dim msg As String = f.Value
    msg = msg.Trim
    If msg.Length > 0 Then
        CallSubDelayed3(PushShared, "NewMessage", msg, Null)
    End If
    txt.RunMethod("select", Null)
End Sub

Public Sub UpdateMessagesTable
Log("->PushBrowser/UpdateMessagesTable")
    DBUtils.FillTable(ws, tblMessages, _
    PushShared.PushDB.ExecQuery("SELECT msg_id, text, time FROM messages ORDER BY msg_id DESC LIMIT 20"))
    ws.Flush
End Sub

Public Sub UpdateConnectedIds(s As String)
Log("->PushBrowser/UpdateConnectedIds")
    users.SetHtml(s)
    ws.Flush
End Sub

Private Sub WebSocket_Disconnected
Log("->PushBrowser/WebSocket_Disconnected")
    CallSubDelayed2(PushShared, "BrowserDisconnected", Me)
End Sub

The log:

When I connect from Android app, the same error appears.

A server app must be a non-UI app. You can create a UI app that communicates with the server app and shows the required UI. However the server app itself must be a non-UI app.

I have configured to run the non-UI app server in the Startup of Windows. I don't know why, but sometimes, the server doesn't start.

I wanted to convert it to a UI app to can put a system tray icon and can see easily if the server is running or not.

Can I run the app server from an UI app if the server is not running? How?

Thanks.

 

[Erel]

You should check why the server is not started. As I wrote above a server app must be a non-UI app.

Did somebody knows, which is the best to communicate from an ui-app to a server-app? I want to show the logs in the ui-app. I'm looking for the best solution...

Thanks for help...
