Have you seen anything in DSO and Filter logging on the destination system? DSO logging is always a little tricky; sometimes the inbound side doesn't log and sometimes the outbound side doesn't log. But the filter always logs!
I seem to remember filter problems on the destination leading me to believe there was a higher level problem.

Sent by: "Action Request System discussion list(ARSList)" <[email protected]> ** I've been trying this - we have 5 test environments that are either running on 7.0.01 patch 012 or 7.6.04 patch 004, and I can't seem to get any form of DSO transaction running between them. The DSO passwords have all been set the same across environments, I have now tried copying the password via the configuration files and that makes no difference. Grrrr, very frustrating. Think I may start from scratch again, disable DSO, remove all config .... clean slate time.

A trick I found is to go into the ar.conf file (I'm on Solaris) and cut the DSO password for server A from the conf file on server A and paste it into the line of the server B conf file for the target DSO password for server A. Didn't even have to restart the DSO process - picked it right up and started transferring. Just passing that along as an option to try - only takes a minute to check. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mueller, Doug Newsgroups: public.remedy.arsystem.general To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 4:22 PM Subject: Re: DSO - issues on 7.6.04? ** Dave, Well the message says "Access problem" when trying to get the remote definition…. So, the question that immediately comes to mind is whether you have configured the appropriate passwords for the DSO user to be able to access the remote system? You can get from B to A but not from A to B. You can get from A to A and from B to B. Well, B has a DSO password and you have to configure A to have that password so that it can talk with B. I would check the configuration (configured on the Server Information form) on system A – the one you cannot call from – to make sure that system B is registered with a password. If there is a password, it will not show you the value so you might try entering the right value and saving just to be sure that you have the right value configured. Then, see where that leaves you. But, an error of an "access problem" is related to password problems or port configuration problems or something that prevents the DSO process on system A from accessing system B for interaction. Hopefully this gives a hint that helps in finding a solution, Doug Mueller From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto: [email protected]] On Behalf Of Dave Barber Sent: Monday, January 21, 2013 7:10 AM To: [email protected] Subject: DSO - issues on 7.6.04? ** All, We're not using DSO much - currently only for one transaction type, which is basically a password sync option between our (in house) incident system running on 7.0.01 and an ootb change management application running on 7.5 (incident and its server has always been the primary application) In the process of upgrading the 7.0.01 server to 7.6.04 patch 004, and I'm trying to replicate the DSO functionality between our test environments. Its licensed on all of them, but when trying to send a DSO transaction from 7.6.04 to either a 7.0.01 or 7.5 server I'm always getting : ** WARNING ** Access problem trying to get target form definition, later... (Mon Jan 21 2013 14:40:40.9342) I've been able to issue DSO transactions the other way round, from 7.5 or 7.0.01 to 7.6.04, but totally unable to send the other way. Is there an issue using DSO transactions from a newer version to an older version? All servers are running on Solaris/Oracle, DSO is licensed on all servers, and all servers can issue DSO transactions to themselves (ie. the most basic DSO transaction works without issue).
