Verifying the Magic xpa Server Installation (Magic xpa 3.x)

It is worthwhile to take a moment to verify that the Magic xpa enterprise server has been installed correctly. This will make it easier to troubleshoot later on should there be problems accessing Magic xpa programs.

  1. In the MAGIC_DATABASES section of the MAGIC400.INI file make these changes in the Default Database line:

  1. Change DB_LIBNAME to the library name where the current server was installed.

  2. Change DB_ADDRESS to the IBM i TCP/IP address.

  3. Change DB_USER to your IBM i user profile.

  4. Change DB_PASSWORD to your IBM i user profile password.

  1. When you install the Server library, there are no Objects of type JobDescription in the Server library, so you need to manually create these objects and you need to add the JobQueue Entry to the Magic Subsystem of the Magic400 library. For example, if you have an installed Server library named TestServer, then you would do the following:

  1. CHGCURLIB TESTSERVER.

  2. CHGCURDIR '/TESTSERVER'

  3. CFGMGCSVR (this opens the Magic menu)

  4. From the Magic Config. menu, run Option 5.

  5. From the Magic Config. menu, run Option 6.

  6. From the Magic Config. menu, run Option 7.

This will also create the following three objects of type Job Description in the TESTSERVER library:

  • MGBROKER

  • MGSERVER

  • MGSNMP

  1. In the Magic_Env section of the Magic400.ini file, change the value of the StartApplication line to the project's ecf file path.

  2. Start the Magic Broker using Option 8 of the Server Management menu.

  3. Check the Qsysopr Message using Option 4 of the OS/400 Utility menu. You should see a message similar to the one below:

MagicBroker: Started by SANTOSH in library TESTSERVER; using directory/TESTSERVER and text file Code Page(CCSID) 1252

  1. From the Magic Config menu, run Option 2.

  2. From the OS/400 Utility menu, run Option 2.

    This should start the WRKACTJOB. Make sure that the MGSERVER JOB is started below MGBROKER.

  3. From the OS/400 Utility menu, run Option 6.

  4. From the PASE environment, execute the following command:

1) . ./.profile

2) checkm/

This command will show the project's started name. If this name is the same as the project name given in the Magic400.ini file's StartApplication line, then you have successfully installed the server.
