TestShell TCL API - 'connect failed connection refused' error when attempting to logon

[Quali-Community]

Summary: TestShell is provided with various API's which can be used to perform actions in resource manager via an external program or by interactive TCL commands. For a guide to getting started with the TCL API, please see the article below.

TestShell-TCL-API-Getting-Started

In case you have followed the getting started article referenced above and when attempting to use the method ::TestShellAPI::Logon you receive the following error below, there could be a problem with the service setting in the config.ini file.

(System32) 2 % ::TestShellAPI::Logon admin admin global
<Error>connect failed connection refused</Error>
FAIL
(System32) 3 %

The config.ini file contains a line to specify the location of the TestShell server. If you are running TCL on the TestShell server, then no changes are required. If you are connecting to a TestShell server which is not on the machine where TCL is running, you will need to replace "localhost" with the IP of the TestShell server.

Local TestShell Server 

service = http://localhost:8029/ResourceManagerApiService

Remote TestShell Server (Example using 10.10.10.10 as the server IP)

service = http://10.10.10.10:8029/ResourceManagerApiService
