Which 3rd party server should I use to host my labview VI from my PC

I have developed a Labview application, that I want to host from my PC. So that I can access it from other PC thorough internet.

Now It can be accessed from the connect "remote panel"  option in OPERATE tab.

But I cant give a labview to my client so I want to access it through  browser.

Using web publish tool I can access it on LAN through web browser.

 

But now I want to host that HTML page on internet.

 

so can you folks please help with the third party server suggestion that can host remote panel.

 

Thank you.

If you are wanting to display your front panels the answer is easy: There are no 3rd party servers that can display a dynamic LV front panel. What you will have to do is a conventional Web application where your LV code sends data to the web user interface using HTTP client calls to "Get" and "Post" methods.

 

The client-side will be orchestrated through JavaScript and some sort of messaging scheme you work out.

You've already got the server for the remote panel. Perhaps, all you need is to make the port available. http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/B1E9A3D78BAED949862573AD0065D4D2

You can also create a web service. This would not require the LabVIEW runtime.

Thanks Dennis for your concern,

 

I have successfully implemented using Labview remote panel access option, But the thing is that client side would not have any labview platform. 

 

And as far as concern with the web services that do not support chart and graph data types, moreover the way I tried it doesnt display remote panel it just only give output indicators value in text form. That is not my clients requirement. 

 

I can give him LV RTE so that he can access it using web browser. But doing that in my way is probably not right. The error I stumble upon is "THE REMOTE PANEL IS CLOSE". While doing so it even shows Downloading remote panel option but after a minute shows up the error message. 

 

So I think I might be wrong with HTML code or HFS server that I have been using to host my VI. 

 

It would be nice if you help me up with this problem.

 

Thank you again

Hello mikeporter 

 

Thanks for your concern 

 

As per your suggestion, I take web application as a solution. so can you please tell me what platform should I use to develope web application.

 

It would be nice if you provide me some material or links that can help me with "HTTP client calls to "Get" and "Post" methods." as I am newbie to this stuff. 

 

Thank you once again.

If you can view the remote panel on your local network, then it sounds like it is just a problem with the port forwarding.

Well I tried my best to forward correct ports. I am giving you information relating to it.

 

I have forwarded port 1000, that my HFS server use to host HTML page(my VI is embedded into it).

I even mentioned serverip address and port into HTML file. 

I used port 80 in Labview web server configuration.

 

Can you please tell me what ports should I forward to get the access of remote panel on other network??

 

Thank you.
