Omnis app server deployment

[Martin Obongita]

 Hi Andrew,
Yes. This is the exact document I have been following to deploy the in the app server. I have setup the data arameters in the htm pages. The server is connecting to a postgresql database through an assigned port. The remote forms opens okay displaying the buttons objects correctly. I have also created an entry field to display the total number of records fetched in the database. And indeed it shows 216 records. But for some strange reason, the datagrid will not display the fetched data. I have assigned the $dataname property to the iDataList. Are there properties in the DataGrid that could possibly hide data display? My question still remains how a window can display data perfectly fine in development mode but fail to display in deployment. The database server is connected. The remote form is opening. and the data is fetched correctly.
Regards, Martin.

 Martin,

Have you looked at the following tech note?

Developer and app server deployments are two completely different setups,
so yes one can work and not the other if not set up correctly.
