Register a new connection to for importing data

[zh9118]

Hi there, how are you?

I have a question about the connection to the API. Hope I could get some answers from here.

I have installed an ENCODE API in a virtual machine, and expecting to import data from the host into the ENCODE API on the virtual machine. To make a connection between the host and the virtual machine, I was trying to do the command conn = Connection("demo.encodedcc.org") to register a connection and then use it for data import. However, kept receiving connection refused errors. Could anyone help me with this please? Thanks a lot.

Hi, you should use www.encodeproject.org

Thanks for your reply. We are actually not importing data to encode.org or the dev server. Actually we have our own encode build in the virtual machine, and expecting using the Eu_register.py to import the data into the encode API.

You should use the name/address of that virtual machine then. You can either use the AWS address or attach your server to your own domain (AWS uses something called Route53 for this)

Thanks for your reply. Yes, that's right. But the name/address of that virtual machine is needed to be registered by Encode_util in order to receive data. Is it true? And I kept receiving errors of refusing connection, I guess I failed to register the name/address for importing data.
