[U2] Redback problem with opening a pipe

2007-07-20 Thread Doug Farmer
Good morning,

Yesterday we tried to install Redback on a Windows 2003 server and we
are unable to get the Redback responders to work.

The server is also running SQL Server 2005 and BizTalk 2005.

If we look at the log records for a responder, we see the following
information.

UniData Release 6.1  Build: (5150)
(c) Copyright IBM Corporation 2005.
All rights reserved.

Current UniData home is D:\USR\UD61\.
Current working directory is d:\roi\MANAGE-2000.7.2.
:SPIDER \\.\pipe\to_Manage 2000 7_2_3820 \\.\pipe\from_Manage 2000
7_2_3820
ERROR open of topipe failed
ERROR open of frompipe failed
:

We have a call into IBM, but they have only seen this once before and
closed that call without a solution.

We are running the connection with the parameter USEREXIT=WW.RPC as we
only need to be able to call subroutines from our Web pages.

We have installed this on Windows 2003 servers before with no problem.
Could it be SQL Server or BizTalk?

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Thanks,

Doug Farmer

2007-07-20 Thread Brian Leach
All

I would definitely urge everyone to attend their nearest venue.

The price is extremely reasonable (especially compared with the other IBM
conferences) and these things need to be supported. I'll certainly be
attending the London event, and looking forward to meeting as many fellow
members as possible.

So please get the word out - If you know any other U2 users, who may or may
not be members of this list - please make sure that they know about these
events. They may not hear it from their vars..

We've been petitioning IBM to bring back some U2 events for some time - now
is the time to stand up for them.

Re: [U2] UniData 7.1 vs. MS SQL 2005 performance

2007-07-20 Thread Anthony W. Youngman
In message 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], Dawn 
Wolthuis [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes

Ummm ... but as Dawn says, a lot of its advocates treat it as a
mathematical model - and then use that to try and PREscribe how the
world is supposed to work - a mathematical trait if ever there was one!


I can't let that one slide by, dear scientist colleague.  The
mathematician happily works within the world of mathematics.  It is
the scientist, applied mathematician (not considered to BE a
mathematician at all by pure mathematicians ;-)  ), engineer, or other
practitioner who connects the matheatics to the world.


The (true) scientist does NOT attempt to PREscribe how the world works 
:-) But I was probably (mis?)quoting the following...


 The theory itself does not ban empirical testing.  Those who think
 that relational theory is pure even after they apply it, try to put it
 on a pedestal where it is immune to being tested even in its
 application.

:-)


So, when relational theorists are doing relational theory, they are
happily doing mathematics.  When they indicate that it is relevant to
software, they are not doing mathematics.  Look to the scientists when
you want an example of mis-applied mathematics.  In fact, that is
where you found your example.  Cheers!  --dawn


Mm

Was Galileo trying to DEscribe, or PREscribe. The fact is, he didn't 
have the mathematical tools to do the job - as I say it was Kepler who 
developed them maybe a couple of centuries later - which is why he 
wasn't believed.


So are the relational people Computer *Scientists* or Computer 
*Mathematicians*? I think half the trouble nowadays is that people don't 
understand the difference between maths and science. I now have an 
extremely simple definition, but it took me a Masters course module, and 
then a long time, to get it all right.


Mathematicians prove theories correct, Scientists prove theories 
wrong.


Computer Science is in the business of proving things correct, therefore 
it can't be science :-( Oh - and you need the correct definition of a 
theory before you can understand the above definition - A theory is 
something which is not yet proven. (And for those who wonder at that 
definition, seeing as we seem to believe many scientific theories as 
proven, scientific theories are believed precisely because we have 
been UNABLE to prove them wrong. Mind you, I can't off-hand recall *any* 
scientific theories currently that haven't - at least in the fine detail 
- been proven wrong.)


Cheers,
Wol

RE: [U2] [Fwd: UniObjects Disconnect Issue]

2007-07-20 Thread John Jenkins
Are you using matched client and server components?

e.g. V6 (!!latest version!!)middleware with V6 database
or V7 middleware (!!latest version!!) with V7 database?

Otherwise, is it possible you are trying to close a connection that has
already been closed (timeout or other reason) and you are not using:

Try {..close..}
Catch {}

Try turning on tracing, if you are on Windows server check the event logs as
well as the UniData log files.

Hello all,

We've been using UniObjects middleware to connect to UniData for 
developing Web applications.  We've always used the middleware that came 
with v6 of UniData.  We have been unable to use the middleware from v7.  
I was wondering if anyone might be able to identify what we are doing 
wrong.  We are connecting to UniData 7. 

This code works with the v6 middleware, but does not work with v7

objConn.setHostName(ourhost.ourcollege.edu);
objConn.setaccountpath(/valid/path/to/home/);
objConn.setUserName(ourusername);
objConn.setPassword(ourpassword);
objConn.connect();
webgetapp = objConn.subroutine(SUB.ROUT.INE,2);
webgetapp.setArg(0,);
webgetapp.setArg(1,somevalue);
webgetapp.call();
getAppResults =  webgetapp.getArg(0)
objConn.disconnect();

On v6 middleware, this return the results properly in the getAppResults 
variable.  On v7 middleware, it does this...

 An exception occurred when executing method disconnect.
java.lang.NullPointerException
at asjava.uniobjects.UniJava.closeSessionInternal(UniJava.java:225)
at asjava.uniobjects.UniSession.disconnect(UniSession.java:535)

Any thoughts?  We'd eventually like to get our middleware up to a more 
recent version to take advantage of some new features.

RE: [U2] Redback problem with opening a pipe

2007-07-20 Thread John Jenkins
Doug

A few things:

1. was RedBack installed as a LOCAL administrator? - not a domain
administrator or an administrator who inherits admin. Permissions from a
tiered domain admin. structure?

2. If you login as administrator on the console and use the Services applet
in Control Panel to start the service does it work?

3. Are the ports in rgwresp.ini available?

4. Does rgwlint give you a clean bill of health?

5. If you stop the other services does it now work?

6. Does RedBack work with the default rgwresp.ini?

7. Has someone tuned the registry - especially the desktop heap?


My suspicions are:

* Not installed as a true administrator

* Permissions (if not permissions due to the above)

* Over-zealous Anti-Virus/firewall software

* Windows resource issues (unusual on Win2K3)

Regards

JayJay

Re: [U2] U2 University link

2007-07-20 Thread Dave Taylor
Wally,

Since your audience is truly international and we are all spread out across
the globe rather than located in large groups in a few places, would IBM not
be able to reach far more attendees, and at far lower cost to both the
attendees and to IBM, if these sessions were presented as Webinars?

Just think of the number of people who will not attend your classes, the
number of people you are missing, due to location issues, schedule issues,
contiguous time away from the office issues, cost issues etc..

Conventional classroom training has to be the least cost effective training
model available, given today's technology.

How much more often could you run these sessions in an updated format if
you could run them as webinars?

How many more people could you reach if you ran them once a month for a
nominal fee per session?

Aren't we all in the business of providing critical information in a timely
and cost-effective manner?

using your above def of theory, but if you look at something like

what is intended when discussing what is considered a mathematical
