4.5.1. Running the Request/Response Examples

The example programs discussed in this section are found in /usr/share/doc/rhm-0.2/python/request-response. To run these programs, do the following:

Make sure that a qpidd broker is running:
```
 $ ps -eaf | grep qpidd
```
If a broker is running, you should see the qpidd process in the output of the above command. If no broker is running, see the instructions in Chapter 3, Installing MRG Messaging.

Run the server.

$ python server.py

You should see the following output:

Request server running - run your client now.
(Times out after 100 seconds ...)

In a separate window, start a client:

$ python client.py

You should see the following output:

Request: Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Request: Did gyre and gimble in the wabe.
Request: All mimsy were the borogroves,
Request: And the mome raths outgrabe.

Now let's take a look at the code for each of these programs. In each section, we will discuss only the code that must be added to the skeleton shown in Section 4.1, “Creating and Closing Sessions”.
