Hi folks, I installed Chainsaw in my Tomcat to be able to launch it remotely, I tested to launch Chainsaw using the remote url to access it and worked fine, Java Web Start can launch Chainsaw without problems, I can select my own config file that creates a new "SocketReceiver" to listen in port 4445 etc...
The problem is that I have checked that when I launch Chainsaw like this, the port 4445 is not opened and so Clients trying to connect to that port can't send log4j messages to Chainsaw. If I launch the application as standalone (not using Java Web Start) then the port are correctly open and messages are read. Question: Is possible to use Chainsaw with Java Web Start? Any help on this?
