Test Integration Services

Use this guide to verify that your MathType Integration Services deployment is working correctly. The test pages included with Integration Services help validate connectivity, formula processing, storage, and rendering functionality before you connect a frontend integration or begin troubleshooting issues.

After completing this guide, you will be able to:

• Verify that Integration Services are running correctly.
• Confirm that formulas can be created and retrieved.
• Validate communication with MathType services.
• Detect common deployment and configuration issues.

Before you begin

Requirements

Make sure you have already deployed MathType Integration Services.

Applies to

Self-hosted MathType Integration Services · PHP · Java

Available test pages

PHP Integration Services

Open the test.php page included in your PHP deployment. Example:

http://localhost/php-services/test.php

The exact URL depends on where you deployed the Integration Services files.

Java Integration Services

Open the test endpoint included in your Java deployment. Example:

https://your-server.com/pluginwiris_engine/app/test

The exact URL depends on your application server configuration.

Understanding the results

A successful test page displays a list of validation checks together with a status indicator. Typical checks include:

Successful results

A healthy deployment typically shows:

• All tests marked as OK.
• Readable mathematical expressions in the Report column.
• Valid rendered formulas where applicable.

Review the report output

Do not rely solely on the Status column.Some configuration issues may still display OK while producing broken images, unreadable output, or unexpected rendering results in the Report column.

Verify that:

• Mathematical expressions are displayed correctly.
• Formula previews render as expected.
• No broken image placeholders appear.
• No unexpected warnings or error messages are displayed.

Common issues

The test page does not load

Verify that:

• Integration Services were deployed successfully.
• The URL is correct.
• The web server or application server is running.

The page displays a server exception

This may indicate a configuration or connectivity problem. Review the server logs and verify that all required services and endpoints are reachable.

Formulas appear broken even when all tests show OK

Some rendering-related configuration issues may not cause the test page to fail. Review:

• Rendering configuration.
• Image format settings.
• Connectivity to external services.
• Formula storage configuration.

Connectivity tests fail

Verify that the server can access external MathType services and that firewall, proxy, or network restrictions are not blocking outgoing connections.

Next steps

Once the test page reports successful results, continue with:

• Configure Integration Services.
• Configure rendering output.
• Configure formula storage.
• Configure proxy and cross-domain settings.
