Failed to start Web Service

[Vinceefr]

Hi,
I finally took time after several months to install the SPC-WEB-GATEWAY.
Unfortunately I get the following error when starting the gateway on my raspberry:

License valid until 2038-01-01
Waiting for PANEL...
Connection established
spc-web-gateway: Failed to start Web Service

Could you please help ?
I have a phpmysql running on my Raspberry on Apache, could it be linked to this ?

Regards,
Vincent

Probably you already have another instance of spc-web-gateway running or the configured port (default 8088) is already used by another process.

I have the same problem on a new installation of Ubuntu 16.04.
The gateway starts and waits for the panel and when the panel connects I get the message
spc-web-gateway: Failed to start Web Service

The application runs fine on an old Ubuntu 14.04 server.

Vincents and my problems might be related.

Hello,

I just installed sac-web-gateway on a new raspberry pi 3 (with raspbian jessie) and I got the following message when I try to start spa-web-gateway:

License valid until 2038-01-01
Waiting for PANEL...
Connection established
spc-web-gateway: Failed to start Web Service

spa-web-gateway version is : rp 1.2

No other service is running on port 8088.

Any idea of what could be wrong ?

Eric

Hi Eric,
Are you sure you have not missed to install the required packages openssl and libssl-dev according to the Installation Guide section 2.1 Installation Prerequisites.

Hello Goran,

that was it.

Sorry, I pass through this point.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Hi,

I upgraded from Ubuntu 17.10 to 18.04, and I now have issues.

The SPC Web Gateway will only start if I disable SSL Authentication in config.xml. If SSL Authentication is set to "yes", I get this:

rory@openhab:/opt/spc-web-gateway$ ./spc-web-gateway -d
License valid until 2030-01-01
Waiting for PANEL...
Connection established
spc-web-gateway: Failed to start Web Service
rory@openhab:/opt/spc-web-gateway$

Also, node-spc-mqtt won't work, but I assume that's because SSL Authentication is now not working in the web gateway.

openssl and libssl-dev are both installed.

Is there any other logging done anywhere? (I found /var/log/spc-web-gateway.log but it's empty).

Any ideas?
