Avaya dialer integration not receiving events (solved)

[Hilton Williams]

This post is for a problem with the Amethyst Avaya Proactive Contact integration, but may apply to any CORBA client on Ubuntu.

The integration in Amethyst connects via CORBA (JacORB) to the Avaya Proactive Contact server (the dialer).

On Ubuntu, the entry for the host machine is 127.0.1.1. This causes a problem where the Amethyst integration can register with the dialer, but does not receive events.

Changing the /etc/hosts entry to have the actual IP address fixes this problem.

Example:
127.0.0.1 localhost
#127.0.1.1 ubuntuamethyst
192.168.0.5 ubuntuamethyst
