Re: second website
Hello, Thanks for your reply. I have two IP addresses available and configured in Debian Linux. In ofbiz 11.0.4 i have in the content / websites page configured the following: - WebStoreClone with IP 46.18.32.177 and http port 80 with productstore Onlinekinderwinkel with Theme EC Default.. - OfbizSite with IP 46.18.32.178 and http port 80 with productstore Olagos with theme MultiFlex. However no difference appears if i take the one or the other ip address in the browser. What do i miss? Regards, Eric 2013/4/26 Atul Vani atul.v...@hotwaxmedia.com: Didn't get your purpose but a small thing to do would be to have something like ecommerce clone app. Override only what needs to be changed and use a different theme. With this both sites can be kept on the same server. To have them on different servers, you can just use the same database by as mentioned by Jacques.

Re: second website
Hello Atul,
I tried to find a solution. So i took the ofbiz-containers.xml file
under /framework/base/config in ofbiz11.0.4.
As i read in the documentation from Tomcat is must be possible to
define two engine objects and two http-connector objects.
I defined a default-server where default-host = 46.18.32.177
and a second default-server2 where default-host = 46.18.32.178
I defined two http-connectors , one connected with parameter address
= 46.18.32.177 and a second one with parameter address =
46.18.32.178
The whole configuration in ofbiz-containers.xml was:

I hadn't actually thought about a card reader, but you're right. For the POS side of it, we'd need (and really should only use) an encrypted card reader, to handle the credit ar and debit transactions. That said, though, what this thread started as involved bar code reading (in POS that would identify what has been bought and look up the price from the DB), and of course in inventory management (both POS and taking inventory) the idea is to read the products' bar codes, to identify the products bought ot in stock, and then enter the quantity, and adjust the amount represented in the DB as being available for sale or use (depending on whether we're talking a contractor or a vendor). For the bar code scanner, I have seen a program called out-of-milk in the android which seems to scan bar codes rather nicely with the onboard camera (you hold product so bar code is inside its border. When it is successful the border goes green) and then search for them up somehow (google? built-in db? I dunno). Most of the time it finds the product. I take there has to be examples on making such a reader out there. Or talk to the guy who wrote it and see if you two can do something together. Can you provide contact information for this guy? I had found a rather good bar code scanner software product from S4BB, but they ignored my request for contact and information. It reads the bar codes very well, but when it has done so, it sends the data hme and the browser on my Blackberry opens with product information. And, it is cross platform, so there are versions that run on just about any smart phone. All the apps I found that read bar codes work like this, building their own database of products, manufacturers and retailers for each bar code. Thus some are more useful than others as it takes time to build such a database. I'd expact that such a database would get so large that it can not be stored on a smart phone. That said, a question that perhaps ought to branch off to a distinct thread, is Are you aware of an encrypted card reader that a consumer could We probably should do that. plug into his own computer or mobile device, to transform ecommerce sales into card present transactions (something I am sure processing banks would prefer over card not present transactions). A part of much of my work these days is investigation and development of fraud prevention technologies, and such a device would be of tremendous value, especially if at a price point a consumer wouldn't think twice about buying one. I just asked the programmer who usually integrate those readers. Off the top of his head, we have used one by honeywell and another by infinite peripherals, but those are for IOS. He did not remember which one we played with for the android. So, I ought to be able to get further informatin from Honeywell (a little name recognition wouldn't hurt in promoting the idea to consumers). I wonder who makes the ones used by paypal and by squareup (I think that's its name). As I have several decades of software development experience in a variety of programming languages, I am sure I could develop something using a same SDK, but as all my apps have been either intended for a desktop or for application servers, and I have yet to develop something for any mobile device, it would be good if I could connect to someone with mobile device app development experience if I have to go the route of developing something like that. If the programmers you know who do this sort of thing hate those SDKs, I think I might prefer to hire someone to deal with it than take it on myself (when my budget allows me to do so). Also, one of the sucky parts is that after you get it to work you then have to certify it with your payment processor. There are ways around that: I just talked to my boss and he said a POS (like ofbiz!) does not deal with the card reading. Instead it tells out software bitch, I want to charge $19. Yay or Nay? and the program talks to card reader and then to the processor, and then says whether transaction is approved or denied. POS takes that info and does what it needs to do. This way the POS does not need to be PCI compliant; it is out of the card-handling loop. So, it instead can focus on the other aspects like inventory control and providing an interface that does not make your end user want to scream. That is a great way to enhance the security and fraud prevention methods. I have developed my own API (in Perl) for taking ecommerce data and submitting it to a merchant's processing bank. And, I am investigating incorporating a suite of Perl packages into my API, so that I can support a great many more

I too have potential clients who want to use their smart phones for POS, as well as to take inventory (both within their warehouse and on remote job sites). I have found bar code reader hardware that will put the barcode data into whatever field in whatever form has focus (regardless of whether the application is a web app, with which the user is interacting via a browser, or a dedicated app). Obviously, I want to have the user working with both the POS and inventory components via the web browser.[snip] I did a quick search and it looks like the ASL-licensed ZXing ( http://code.google.com/p/**zxing/ http://code.google.com/p/zxing/) works on Blackberry as well as on Android. It wasn't obvious you could use it to enter text into an arbitrary web application running on the mobile device. Seems like you have to use it within a custom application. Richard. Thanks Richard. I will investigate this. They seem to have a discussion forum, so I can ask, there, how to use it within OFBiz. It is, after all, a Java library, but I do not know, yet, if it can be embedded in a web page app, or if it would need an app to install on the user's smart phone (acceptable on a merchant or contractor's smart phone, but potentially problematic on a consumer's smart phone.
