[U2] Unirpc problems on UD6 upgrade

2004-07-26 Thread Nick Southwell
We have set up a new Alpha box with Unidata 6.0 and are trying to migrate from an AIX box with Unidata 5.2. Everything looks fine, but when we swap our web application over that uses OLEDB we start getting connection drops at different points in the application. Anyone seen this type of behaviour

We has this problem when there was a firewall between the client and the server and the firewalls default setting was to disconnect idle connections within 60 mins. Doesn't sound like what you're seeing but experience shows that what seems an unrelated change in infrastructure can have a knock on e

We did have 5.2 on the Tru64 boxes and I never came across the uac problem before. I'm almost tempted to wipe and install 6 from scratch just to see if its an artifact of the upgrade rather than Unidata 6 itself. On a side note, do you have anything in the way of redundancy in place with your box

Just a quick update. According to IBM the unaligned access message is normal and is disabled by adding "uac p noprint" to the user profile. Seems to do the trick, still not convinced that the programs should run that way but oh well Nick -Original Message----- From: Nick

like the justly deprecated (S)uppress option in Pick). In the "unaligned" error messages, after the pid, what is (are) the name(s) of the program(s)? Is the program name always "udt"? If so, are you using makeudt and CALLC? > -Original Message- > From: Nick

Are your thousands of students concurrent users? We designed our application to have a max number of connections say 100. When the application knows it has reached that limit it will sleep and retry. Its not the most graceful approach but it allows us to put a ceiling on usage. Cheers Nick ---

Anyone out there using Unidata with Tru64 on Alphas. We have having a lot of trouble with unaligned access pid messages. We're trying to migrate from an AIX box and thi is causing us a real show stopper. Tried convcode and convdata on all our files which helped a bit but still no functioning syst

If you are using Uniobjects or UniOLEDB, check the trace level that has been set in your ud_database file. You may be creating debug logs. Cheers Nick -Original Message- From: Scott Richardson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 June 2004 15:16 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [U2] Uni

RE: [U2] UniObject Problem

2004-06-30 Thread Nick Southwell
The experience we had was with the UniOLEDB components but I believe the same unirpc service handles the requests at the Unidata side. It appears that unirpc "serialises" requests effectively limiting the system to one concurrent user. The system tested was Unidata 5.2. (Unidata 6 seems to solve th

Worth mentioning that we have implemented an OLEDB solution, driver version 1.4.3 against Unidata 5.2 and have discovered that the driver is not capable of concurrent execution, more specifically it's the unirpc service which serialises all requests. Cheers Nick -Original Message- From:
