3. Verify the Port Configuration

After you have configured your ports and started your CIMPLICITY project, you can check the Status Log to verify that each marquee resident process was able to connect to its configured port on the terminal server.

Successful connections.

Write errors.

Communication failures.

Successful Connections

For each port, an entry will appear in the Status Log similar to the following:

8/14/97 6:00:00PM Success PORT1 ReaderThread COR_DCRP_ERROR 20016 0 connection established: 1600@3.26.7.171, port=PORT1

This entry indicates that for process PORT1, a successful connection was made to telnet port 1600 on the terminal server whose IP address is 3.26.7.171.

Write Errors

Occasionally, you may see the following warning message in the Status Log:

8/14/97 6:00:00PM Failure PORT1 dc_telnet_write_windows_tty COR_DCRP_ERR 20016 0 write failure,port=PORT1

This message indicates that a write error occurred. The Marquee Resident process will automatically attempt to resend the message to the marquee.

Communication Failures

You may see the following failure message in the Status Log:

8/14/97 6:00:00PM Failure PORT1 dc_telnet_write_windows_tty COR_DCRP_ERR 20016 0 connection reset, 1600 @ 3.26.7.171, port=PORT1

This Status Log entry indicates that the Marquee Resident process is unable to communicate with the port on the terminal server. It resets the IP connection and attempts to re-establish communications with the port. Check your network state, network connections and your terminal server configuration if you receive this message.
