gnatsd/gnatsweb and remote gnats servers

[Mark Watson]

Hi

I'm having a problem with gnatsweb, gnatsd and remote gnats servers. Our databases file contains entries for databases located on other servers using the format "remotedb:Remote DB::another.gnatsd.com:1529". Trying to access the database from gnatsweb results in 417 - The directory does not exist for database remotedb.

 

I had hope to get around this by editing gnatsweb.pl and using the gnatsd command LIST Databases to extract the relevant server element, but the list returned does not include anything after :: so no server names can be extracted. Is this a bug in gnatsd (4.0-beta2)?

 

Obviously I don't want to map databasenames to servers in gnatsweb, so my only other real option is to use a designated prefix/suffix on the databasename for each site/server and use gnatsweb-site.pl to configure variables/array for those remote server addresses.

 

Any other options I've missed?

thanks.
