Troubleshooting

Description: The WSDL URL always points to localhost and port 8080, how do I change it?
Workaround: The edit option of the WSRP Consumer and WSRP Producer admin portlets provide options to change these default values.

Description: I am unable to edit the WSRP remote portlet. This option is either disabled or is unavailable.
Workaround: Some WSRP producer implementations do not allow the edit option for unauthenticated users. The WSRP 2.0 Beta software testdriver does not provide options to edit a portlet for unauthenticated users. You can edit the options for the remote portlets by logging in to the test driver using the sign-in option.
