Got this safari error clicking the publish button. Any ideas?

Safari can’t open the page “http://10.0.0.2:8040/zulu/publish?_version=1.0&_filename=FSM&_layout=zulu&START_DATE=DateStart&PKEV

Well that doesn't look like a real IP address... where is your server? Are you able to hit the register URL at that IP?

http://10.0.0.2:8040/zulu/register

10.0.0.2 is our OS X 10.6 Server. It is in-house. I can ping that IP.

pings to the following fail:
10.0.0.2:8040/zulu/regisgter
10.0.0.2:8040

Which is port 8040? Maybe I need to open something up on the server?

Sounds like 8040 needs to be opened. You could also try the public IP for your server if you have one.

opened on the router, correct?

I would imagine Darren, but I'm not a networking guy.

Ok, I opened port 8040 on my router. I am still getting the same error. Here is my set up.
OS X snowleopard server running FMS 11.

IP address for server is indeed 10.0.0.2.

I my router forwarding port 8040 to port 8040 at 10.0.0.2. (TCP)

I checked that the plugin was in the right folder and that I did the install process correctly.

have not purchased zulu yet, still in Demo mode. (I have stopped and started the WPE a few times just to make sure.

HI Darren, I'm sorry, but trouble shooting network stuff is just not my bag. This is a web server thing: if you can hit 10.0.0.2:8040/zulu from your machine you'll be up and running. I can't tell you what you need to do to make that happen, though I imagine you need to open that port on the server itself. Wish I had more for you.

ok Thankyou!

I figured it was networking, and that you could not address it, just wanted make sure I was not leaving anything out on the zulu side.

I'm getting something similar:

"An error occurred while communicating with your FileMaker database. Please verify that the database is on, and web publishing is enabled."

I've followed all directions. I've rebooted the FileMaker Server. I can & have registered Zulu. Web Publishing is on. XML is enabled on the server & the file.

I'm stuck.

At this point, I usually find it is something in our troubleshooting list...

... even though I'm sure I checked all that. If that doesn't get you up and running, get in touch with me directly and I'd be happy to take a look (john @ seedcode.com)

I'm using Mac OS X Server 10.6.4 and FileMaker Server 11. In a browser, trying to open localhost or 127.0.0.1 was not working.

Reason being I had installed our web server files in the Sites folder, and in the Server Admin console had that site turned on, but the default site turned off (IP Address: "*"). I turned that on and not only did my localhost and 127.0.0.1 immediately work, but ZULU immediately worked.

The problem AFAIK is that upon looking through the "ZULU Cal_WPE.log" the process
com.prosc.fmpjdbc.FmXmlRequest do request
was using the
http://localhost/fmi....
url, which was not working due to the settings mentioned above.

Hope this can help someone out there...

Excellent post Leland! Thank you.

Issue Resolved (I am the original poster in this thread). I have the resolved the original issue by reinstalling my 10.6 OS X server. This server, although relatively new, was improperly named during the initial install. FSM.LOCAL was the name. apparently LOCAL is reserved word for OS X bonjour services and this conflict was causing a variety of problems on the server. Including, perhaps, my inability to connect to Zulu.
