• Google Request Fails

    By Tom Bloomquist 2 decades ago

    I am running Notes 7 Beta 1 and have not been able to get the iWatch Alert Request to sucessfully complete. I receive this error msg - "Your Google Request failed … Please try Again". I've configured my email and have added keywords, etc. My IE automatically detects settings, so I am not sure if I am using a proxy or not. I am on Comcast cable. I have changed my default Notes browser to IE. It was FireFox. I can reach google using both FireFox or IE. The proxy field in my Location document is blank. I'm able to view HTML documents which link to internet sites in my inbox. Any tips on figuring out what is going on here?



    Thanks, Tom

    • I can certainly tell you...

      By Thomas W Duff 2 decades ago

      … that iWatch was never tested on the Notes 7 platform… :-) I currently have one bug fix I'm working on involving the truncation of the URL on Linux platforms. After that, I'll have to see if I can get a Notes 7 platform set up and try it out there.

      • I get the same error on 6.5.1 !

          • Same on notes 7

            Is it due to a wrong mail-in database adress? Do I watch want a standard email adress (eg : me@mycompany.com) or the adress to the mail database ? (server/servername/mail/me.nsf) or is it a bug ?

            • iWatch wants a standard email address...

              By Thomas W Duff 2 decades ago

              … in the format name@domain.com. That is the email address that is passed to Google so that Google can email in the alerts.

      • I have the same error on 6.51

        I have the same error, "Your Google request fails .. Please try again"



        I am able to email to the Mail in Datbase from Yahoo – this means the address is working.



        Appreciate some advice on how to resolve this.

        • I'm really not ignoring all of you... :-)

          I've just been really busy of late on other items. I do plan on getting back to this very soon. Thanks for all the feedback.

            Here's the Java console error when I try to submit a new alert to Google;

            java.lang.NullPointerException

              I've just been swamped with work and writing. Thanks for the feedback.

    • Failure turned to SUCCESS -- Here's how

      By Chris Crompton 2 decades ago

      I'm running 6.5.1



      In the "(Submit Post to Google)" agent, since I'm not using a proxy server anyways, I got it to work by commenting out lines 43-47 as follows:



      // set the proxy parameters if the user has stored proxy information in the profile document.

      //if (!prfProxyServer.equals("")) {

      // Properties systemProperties = System.getProperties();

      // systemProperties.setProperty("http.proxyHost", prfProxyServer);

      // systemProperties.setProperty("http.proxyPort", prfProxyServerPort);

      //}

        The same thing needs to be done to lines 49-53 in the (Manual Process Incoming Verifications) agent which is triggered when Processing the verifications.

      • That did it - Thanks!

        By Ed Maloney 2 decades ago

        Commenting out those lines solved the problem.

        Thank You!
