I'm recently starting my thesis topic about voicexml.
I got the following equipments already,
a GPRS enabled java programmable mobile
a high end PC with static internet connection running weblogic 8.0 as the server
I've read the voicexml tutorials and can implement some applications on my pc (without dialing)
The problem now is I don't know how to intergrate the voicexml server or voice gateway with my weblogic server, actually i don't even know which one to implement on my server
My target is when I call the mobile phone, I should hear voicexml commands which is extracted from my server.
Thank you in advance

You don't have to deploy a VoiceXML interpreter on your server if you don't want to -- it is possible to use an externally hosted service along with your existing application server.
If you decide that you want to set up and maintain your own VoiceXML environment, you may want to see this post.
If you have a static IP address and your server is accessible to outside requests, then a hosted VoiceXML interpreter may be the simplest solution. For more information on how to work with a hosting provider, check this out.
One thing to keep in mind -- whichever route you take you will probably have to set up your environment to serve HTTP requests. A VoiceXML interpreter (whether run locally, or hosted externally) will make HTTP requests to your environment, and then parse the VXML code sent back in the response. Read this to learn how to set up your WebLogic environment to act as an HTTP server.
Hope this helps.

Thx, it helped.
Just one more question:
Is there a way to code/test your script completely offline? e.g you say something with microphone, and it responses from the speakers.
If so, what software can I download(free)? Is there any tutorials about this? I read a few for uploading your scripts to the server then test via phone but nothing local.
Thank you

If you want to run something locally that is free, your probably going to have to set up your own environment.
If you have your own environment set up, you should be able to use your VoIP client to connect and test your app. (For more on what you'll need to set up your own environment, see my previous post). I'm not aware of anything free that would let you run your application 100% locally, unless you want to set up and configure the environment on your own.
However, you may want to check out the list of tools that the VoiceXML Fourm maintains. Maybe one of them offers a turn key solution that can be downloaded for trail purposes, to let you test your app in an environment running locally.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Actually, I just came across this product. Never tried it, but it claims to run on a desktop PC (Windows or Linux), and is free for non-commercial use.
Hope you find this useful. I'd be interested to know what you think of this product if you have a chance to test it out. [ October 06, 2005, 03:21 PM: Message edited by: mheadd ]
