Implementing Mapepire-server on AIX with Python Client on AIX?

[kraudy]

The server i'm using does not have the mapepire repo on the repo.d directory and i don't have authorization to create it. So i need a workaround.

I can not do a wget download from github because it is blocked.

A little check on pub400 showed that mapepire it is indeed on an ibmi-base repo.

So, now my move is to go to the repo (https://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/ibmi/products/pase/rpms/repo-base-7.3/noarch/), download mapepire-server and the upload it AIX

After that, i'll ask someone with authority to run the ` yum install ./mapepire-server-x.x.noarch.rpm

is there another dependency that i need to add or something that i'm missing so that i only ask once for the favor?

Thanks in advance.

Note: i know the docs (https://mapepire-ibmi.github.io/guides/sysadmin/) use Service Commander for the manual installation but i can not use that route unless i also manually install it

Well, i jumped the yum part and ran the jar directly. Now, i'm trying to implement the Python client, but i get this error

this is the server output

Any advice?

It looks like the server was started successfully, but it can't find the value for hostname. Did you specify all the variables in your .ini file? When you run the client with a debugger, is the creds variable containing the right values? @ajshedivy

@jonnyz32 This is the .ini file

This the variables print

I got it to work

This is how the ini file should look
