Will - are you using ColdSpring 2.0 by any chance? I'm not sure if the
Mach-II ColdSpring property works with CS 2.0 just yet. Jason, Peter or
Kurt might know if the current CS property is compatible with CS 2.0.
I do know that if you have all the nodes in your environment config XML
file, set the dsn value in your environment config file, and you're using
the ColdSpring property, it does work. It's used in all of our production
apps.
