To use the system please use the following scripts.

Full system scripts

Start the whole system

This script will launch the four required servers then launch a middler and connect it to them. [local] will indicate if the system is hosted locally, if not the script will distribute the system over 5 hardcoded hosts in it.

./run_system.sh [local]

Note: this script uses the following scripts to do its work, so it would have similar side effects (it might kill processes).

Clear ports [54000 to 54006]

./clear_ports.sh

Rebuild the system

./make_all.sh

---

Server side

Starting a server on a specific port

cd Server/
./run_server.sh <port> <name>

Note: this script will kill any process listening on the specified port before launching the server.

---

Middleware side

Starting middleware on port 54006

cd Middlware/
./run_middleware.sh
[<hostname of Flights server>='localhost']
[<hostname of Rooms server>='localhost']
[<hostname of Cars server>='localhost]
[<hostname of Customers server>='localhost]
[<port of Flights server>=54002]
[<port of Rooms server>=54003]
[<port of Cars server>=54004]
[<port of Customers server>=54005]

Note: this script will kill any process listening on port 54006 before launching the middlware.

---

Client side
