FAQs

Installed WMS, not working

What to do

1. Configuration

In addition to installing the WMS components, you must configure the application, such as setting up a database connection. You can find more information about this here.

2. Windows firewall inbound rule

Be sure to set a required inbound rule in the Windows firewall. You can check how to do that here.

3. Server and Client connection addresses

Check server and client connection addresses. If both components are installed on the same machine, an entry of “localhost,” e.g., http://localhost:31002, works, but if the server and the client component are installed on different machines, specific addresses should be written in. You can do that in the options tab on the client application.

To check the connection on ports between server and workstation (in case CompuTec WMs Client operates on a different machine than CompuTec WMS Server), please perform the following steps:

• Download the PsPing tool from this localization: PsPing and unpack it.

• Open Windows Command Prompt and navigate to the unpacked PSPing folder, e.g., cd C:\Support\PSTools

• Run the following commands:

  psping64.exe -t -i 1 localhost:31002

  psping64.exe -t -i 1 [remote host IP]:31002

  Example:

  

4. CompuTec WMS API Test

Please check if the CompuTec WMS API works correctly by going into a web browser to this address:

http://localhost:31002/API/test/get

http://[remote host IP]:31002/API/test/get

5. WMS services check

Check if CompuTec License Server and CompuTec WMS Server services are up. You can check it in Windows Services - Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.

Motorola MC65 issue: scanning with RDP and DataWedge

Example

1. In DataWedge Demo, the code is scanned correctly.
2. With an RDP connection and scanning to a notepad, a part of a code is removed. Originally: (10)21055(95)1(95)C00312, actually scanned: (10)21(95)1(95)C00312. Part of a GS1 code is missed.

Solution

Please note that the Motorola MC65 device is no longer supported by its producer. However, Motorola support suggested (as best effort only) using Interchar Delay (DataWedge option) to slow down RDP data sending to a host.
