My module sends DCE, DCERouter gets nothing

[archived]

Hi,

I've noticed weird behaviour of my home automation controller module (written in Perl) and DCERouter.

- if I start perl script from command line it's output goes fluently on console. If I let Pluto run it under screen, then output is jerky - freezes for few seconds and then advances, etc.... Is this only visual impression or does screen somehow affect how script is running ?

- spotted situation that my module sends events and commands on TCP port to Router, but DCERouter receives nothing - obviously TCP port closed somehow or something else happened. How to prevent or detect and heal this deadlock in general ? Where to check what happened in this particular situation ?

Thanks in advance,

regards,

Rob.

Screen has nothing to do with the output of your script being jerky, i think that when runned by pluto your script behaves differently than when you run it from the console.

The tcp problem i think is also related to your script since if the tcp port was closed the pluto modules would stop working also.

You can type this into a core's console to see if the port is opened:

Code:

nc -z localhost 3450 || echo "Port 3450 is closed"
