[seek-dev] Howto for deploying ogsa web service.

[Bing Zhu]

For DiGIR service, the following two lines need to added into
'server-config.wsdd',
      <parameter name="publishHostName" value="true"/>
      <parameter name="logicalHost" value="kuecogrid.ittc.ku.edu"/>

This is because that 'kuecogrid.ittc.ku.edu' internally uses a private IP.
If the machine
now uses a static public IP, the above info can be ignored. Otherwise, above
two lines
have to be added into 'server-config.wsdd'.

Hi, Kevin:

Our current Ecogrid service is in factory/instance pattern. So if you use
TCPMON to call the service name(this is factory name) direcly, you will
get "cann't find the service error". The actural service name
is an instance which created by factory, it has some long hashcode in it and
is
differnt to the endpoint.

If you want to test the service, you should run the "runFactoryClient"
target in build file. If the digir's one doesn't work or even doesn't
have the target, you may create one in digir's build file by refrencing
the target in build.xml.

Hope this is helpful.
