[freeside-devel] Issues setting up selfservice.

[Corey Young]

Hello everyone I am having issue setting up the freeside selfservice api. I
have it installed on the same backend as the freeside installation and am
accessing it using php xmlrpc class.

I am getting this error.

[FreesideSelfService] XML-RPC communication error: connect to
/usr/local/freeside/selfservice_socket: Connection refused at
/usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2/FS/SelfService.pm line 153. (Server)

here is the code at that line.

from  /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2/
FS/SelfService.pm

 sub simple_packet {
 149   my $packet = shift;
 150   warn "sending ". $packet->{_packet}. " to server"
 151     if $DEBUG;
 152   socket(SOCK, PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0) or die "socket: $!";
 153   connect(SOCK, sockaddr_un($socket)) or die "connect to $socket: $!";
 154   nstore_fd($packet, \*SOCK) or die "can't send packet: $!";
 155   SOCK->flush;
 156
 157   #shoudl trap: Magic number checking on storable file failed at
blib/lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into blib/lib/auto/Storable/fd_retrieve.al)
line 337, at /usr/local/share/p     erl/5.6.1/FS/SelfService.pm line 71
 158
 159   #block until there is a message on socket
 160 #  my $w = new IO::Select;
 161 #  $w->add(\*SOCK);
 162 #  my @wait = $w->can_read;
 163
 164   warn "reading message from server"
 165     if $DEBUG;
 166
 167   my $return = fd_retrieve(\*SOCK) or die "error reading result: $!";
 168   die $return->{'_error'} if defined $return->{_error} &&
$return->{_error};
 169
 170   warn "returning message to client"
 171     if $DEBUG;
 172
 173   $return;
 174 }


the file permissions


/usr/local/freeside# ls -l
total 16
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root     staff   9 Jan 16  2011 rt -> /opt/rt3/
-rw-r--r-- 1 freeside staff 391 Apr 18 19:45 selfservice.--help.log

-rw-r--r-- 1 freeside staff   0 Apr 18 19:45 selfservice.writelock

Storable version 2.45 and Freeside version is 3.2

I am using the Alternative API Access noted here:

any help would be appreciated, thank you in advance.
