Verify and manage WOPI Connector

Steps to verify the WOPI Connector service

1. On each WOPI Connector server, type the following command to confirm whether it is running correctly:
   sudo systemctl status syncp-wopi
   If the service is running correctly the output contains active (running) state of Active property.
2. For each WOPI Connector server, type the following URL in a browser to confirm whether the connector service is accessible:
   http://<hostname_or_IP_address_of_wopi_connector_server>:9000/ping
   If the service is accessible, the following message appears in the browser:
   pong
   If you are unable to access the service using a browser, on each WOPI Connector server type the following command:
   curl http://<wopi_connector_host_or_IP>:9000/ping
   If the service is accessible, the following message appears:
   pong
3. Check the WOPI Connector logs. By default, the connector writes log messages to /var/log/syncp-wopi/wopi-yyyy-mm-dd.log. You can view or change the log location path and/or filename pattern. For details, see Customizing the name of the log file in Configuring WOPI Connector. A common way to view activity of the WOPI Connector, or to troubleshoot an issue, is to observe the log in a second terminal window while executing some actions on the WOPI Connector.
   To do this, type the following command (replace the example log file name with your log file name):
   sudo tail -f /var/log/syncp-wopi/wopi-2019-04-09.log

Basic commands to manage the WOPI Connector

Stop the syncp-wopi service

sudo systemctl stop syncp-wopi

Restart the syncp-wopi service

sudo systemctl restart syncp-wopi

Check the status of the syncp-wopi service

Alternatively, you can do this from a browser by entering the following URL:
http://<hostname_or_IP_address_of_wopi_connector_server>:9000/status

Check the version of the WOPI Connector

You can check the version of the WOPI Connector by entering the following URL in a browser:
