Erm... The squeak image doesn't have to be running on port 80 - apache
can forward requests to an image on another port same as usual. But
that's not really the point.

My observations are that:

a) this demo is run by someone else, not the Seaside team, so there's
little we can do about what port it's on
b) the server seems to be simply down (at least right now)
c) jQuery is only in Seaside 2.9, which is under heavy development and
still in alpha
d) Once it goes beta, it would probably be a good idea to run the
demos on seaside.st

I don't think any of us are interested in making things difficult for
a few potential users just to prove a point about their firewalls. Is
this why so many sites have big warnings saying "this link goes to an
external site"?

Re: Seaside + JQuery example page on port 9090?

Thelliez
Sorry about the noise generated by this thread.

The real issue was that I was in a user group meeting comparing
different web frameworks. The room was filled with various PHP, Java,
Ruby developers. During a JQuery discussion, I suggested that they
have a look at Seaside. The access for the examples from the local
public Wifi did not work. I had to come up with vague excuses, since
all the other sites seemed to work.

I suspected that port 9090 was the issue. Not untypical for a public
wifi. It could have been that the server was simply down. That would
have been unfortunate. Maybe the server(s) should be monitored?

But again the issue is that a quick access to examples is needed. Yes
I could have preloaded an image. But in that case I needed a quick
easy access.

I use free wifi all around the world.  I can't recall when *any* of those
blocked port 9090.  The only time I've had trouble getting to a port 80/443
was when I was on a "guest" wireless in a classroom where I was teaching,
and some local IT guy had misunderstood non-standard ports as being "more
dangerous" than standard ports.  This is part of why I'm bringing this
up in this conversation... it *isn't*.

This is *far* more likely.  In fact, somewhere else in this thread, that was
already noted.

Thierry> Maybe the server(s) should be monitored?

It's all about volunteer resources.  Are you volunteering? :)

Thelliez
Randal,

The point of this thread is more marketing than technical. I am just
pointing an issue with the public facing seaside web site. I thought
that the seaside leaders would be interested/concerned.

To monitor a site, you can register in few seconds fro free at
site24x7.com for example. It would make more sense for the site admin
to do that.

Yes, but we've now established that your original complaint had two pieces:

1) you couldn't reach the site, and that was bad (we all agree on this)
2) you *thought* it was because it was port 9090

so, you wanted a change to the port 9090 issue.

Can we now agree that the 9090 port was a red herring, and not related to your
initial complaint?  Please?

Re: Seaside + JQuery example page on port 9090?

Thelliez
Randal,

I live in a (production) world where everything but http, https and
ssh is closed. The ':9090' misguided me. I had no way to debug that in
the public meeting I was in. Sorry.

But please do not shoot the messenger! I was just trying to spread the
seaside joy!
