Accessing a remote APE server

I am a newbie in APE. I have a linux machine that runs the APE server. I would like my .NET program running in another windows machine to connect to the APE server. How do i do it ? Both the machines are on LAN. I tried to do it by

And i modified my httpd.conf file to give a vhost for local.ape-project.org. And i modified my hosts file to map the IP of the linux machine to local.ape-project.org.

What is happening is that i get an error that i dont have the permission to access APE. I have set the permissions in the remote linux machine too. Has anyone else gone through this situation before ? Any help will be appreciated

thanks

Solution

  • If you are running APE on a separate machine than your web server, both webserver and APE must be in the same top-level domain. This is required if you are using XHR streams, long polling, or any other transport method that relies on Ajax same-origin policy.

    Example

    webserver: mywebserver.com

    APE server: ape.mywebserver.com
