The wrf4g_resources command is not working

[antonio]

When I'm requesting the wrf4g resources availiable I'm getting this strange error:

[antonio@centos3 WRF4G]$ wrf4g_framework start
Starting GridWay .... OK
Starting MySQL .... OK
[antonio@centos3 WRF4G]$ wrf4g_resources
gethostbyname() : Unknown host
FAILED: failed connection to gwd

Dear Antonio,

Maybe You have a wrong hostname configuration on your machine. Try to execute the commands bellow and check their answers:

hostname -s
hostname -f

Kind Regards,

Carlos

This is the output from hostname

[antonio@centos3 WRF4G]$ hostname -s
centos3
[antonio@centos3 WRF4G]$ hostname -f
hostname: Unknown host

and now?

I'm only want to run the WRF4G on my local machine.

Dear Antonio,

You need to edit /etc/sysconfig/network file and enter the hostname in there:

HOSTNAME=centos3

Kind Regards,

Carlos

Carlos,

My network config file had that entry before

[antonio@centos3 bin]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=centos3

therefore rhis is not the solution to the problem.

Dear Antonio,

If your problem continues, edit /etc/hosts file and add a line for your IP and hostname.

If you don't have an IP, you will have to use the example below:

127.0.0.0 centos3

Kind Regards,

Carlos

Carlos,

I have added centos3 to my localhost entries

127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 centos3
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 centos3

Now hostname -f is working:

[antonio@centos3 ~]$ hostname -f
localhost

and the ping command

[antonio@centos3 ~]$ ping centos3
PING localhost (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.056 ms
64 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.075 ms

but I don't understand why the MySQL was working with no problems and the GridWay not.

I had solved the problem changing the $WRF4G_LOCATION/opt/drm4g_gridway/var/gwd.port

[antonio@centos3 ~]$ cat /home/antonio/WRF4G/opt/drm4g_gridway/var/gwd.port
centos3 6725

to

[antonio@centos3 ~]$ cat /home/antonio/WRF4G/opt/drm4g_gridway/var/gwd.port
localhost 6725

GridWay doesnt need to write the FQDN of the host and only needs write it as localhost because all the client tools are communicating using the local filesystem $GW_LOCATION/etc and $GW_LOCATION/var`

We need to fix this.
