Fields are empty after entering data on a Windows Server

Hi Paul!

Have you resolved this issue?

I am also experiencing your problem with after uploading to IIS server.
The content of Webtextbox is gone when tried to access it (after uploading it to Windows iis server).

Any advise from any body?

Also curious what the conclusion is at the end. Is it IIS causing the issue ?
And why was standalone EXE not working on the windows server ?

I just bought subscription from XOJO CLOUD and my problem gone!

I believed there something need to set in IIS which I hope somebody explored it already.

Anybody wanted to share?

Hi Ronaldo,
No, I haven’t found a solution for the problem.
I got so frustrated that I finally gave up and switched to another (Linux) server.
Now my web application is working fine.

Hi Paul!

Your lucky because your familiar setting up LINUX server.

Maybe you can also share to me some references how to set up LINUX to function our XOJO web apps.

I deploy my Web Apps as standalone services on Windows servers behind IIS using @Oliver Osswald’s excellent document http://osswald.com/xojo/RealStudioWebEditionStandAloneWindowsServerDeployment.pdf

@Paul Sondervan 's webtest from the fb case works as expected using this deployment (built with 2016R2).

Hi Wayne, standalone services under IIS would be fine.
But when ever you had UI on IIS (hosted on public ip), it work also, but the value of webtextbox is not accesible within the page.

As a sample,
#1. I just put Web Button and Web textbox on webpage.
#2. Ityped on textbox "TEST’
#3. I clicked BUTTON to show the content of textbox
#4. it didn’t appear.

but this work on my local pc. But on the hosted server, its not.

Maybe there should be an IIS setting to accomplish which I do not know.

I have built & deployed Paul’s demo from the fb case. You can access it at http://demo4.axisdirect.nz This clearly shows that the text typed into the first text field is available to both show in the label & in the message box.

If you would like me to deploy a test of yours on my server then place a link to the test project here & I’ll build & deploy it for you to test.

Hi Wayne,

Your reply keeps my interest alive.

Here is my actual xojo code (ver 2016 r1.1)

Here is the link for my uploaded live program in IIS Windows 2008 server.

Here is the link for my uploaded live program in XOJO CLOUD using XOJO 2016R2

Ok @ronaldo florendo have a look at http://demo2.axisdirect.nz.

I have deployed using @Oliver Osswald’s excellent resource with your app built as standalone & running as a service.

@Wayne Golding The time between clicking the button and the appearance of the message is about 1 second.
I wonder if performance would be acceptable for a complete web-application for business where people should work in all day. What are your experiences ?

That’s the result of a VM with a single core processor - must fix that :slight_smile:

It’s now running on a server from 1701 Software.
It was simply copying the software to the server and it was up and running.

Hi Wayne!

That’s great!

I will call the attention of my Windows hosting provider if they can assist me on setting up Oliver Oswald procedure.

Hi Paul,
1701 Software dont reply on my email. I experienced delay response with their technical support. Maybe they can improve it soonest.

1701 Software is from @Phillip Zedalis, well known on this forum.

Hi Wayne!

I was given the best time and support by my VPS Windows host provider but he has no luck on setting things up.
This is their last message to me:

I felt helpless. Maybe my last option is to provide their request. If that’s possible for you.

Please help.
