RE: [xmlblaster] xmlBlasterClient.pl: SessionId '' is invalid + p atch

["Osterman, Forrest" <forrest.osterman at ieminc.com>]

I'd like to give a little more detail about what I tried to do, so you can
correct any false assumptions I might be making here:

I tried to construct a connect message to send to xmlBlaster, so that I
could start a subscription.

Here is the message I constructed:
       458**I**13464*connect***
<qos>
<session name='osterman/3' 
timeout='3600000' 
maxSessions='10' 
clearSessions='false'/>
<ptp>true</ptp>
<duplicateUpdates>false</duplicateUpdates>
<queue relating='callback' 
maxEntries='1000' 
maxBytes='4000000' 
onOverflow='deadMessage'>
<callback type='IOR' 
sessionId='4e56890ghdFzj0' 
pingInterval='10000' 
retries='-1' 
delay='10000' 
oneway='false' 
dispatchPlugin='undef'> 
IOR:10000010033200000099000010....
<burstMode collectTime='400' /> 
<compress type='gzip' minSize='3000'/>
<ptp>true</ptp>
</callback></queue></qos>*


I tried to keep the message the same as your example, with the exception of
my login name, and put an arbitrary request ID in front of it. Are the
request ID's in fact arbitrary or are they supposed to follow some scheme?

As I was asking before, is the sessionId field that you send in the connect
message randomly generated, and then received back in the returned connect
message as confirmation? If not, where do you get the sessionId value to
send in the connection request?

After I sent this message, xmlblaster gave this output:

Is it really obvious what it didn't like about this message? Anything
obvious that I am missing here?

Thanks,
