Re: Underlying Specifics - Data Connection

We also experienced this error when we were having slow database
response times for some things.  I have not seen it since we corrected
the performance problems.

I guess the point I was trying to make, but did a bad job of it was that
the error occurred as a result of an error with communication between
the Mid-Tier and the Remedy server, and the mid-tier logs showed the
error...:)

Thanks-I was just getting ready to turn max logging on and see what I
could find.  I can't duplicate it myself so I have to rely on someone
else to run the test each time I tweak something.

 

We don't have any large menus but there are some queries happening to
pull back the request id, etc.  The weird thing is this only happens to
some of the people some of the time and works perfectly fine for others
using the same exact workflow and forms (including me) which makes it
real hard to nail down.

Craig,

I was receiving this error in a very specific repeatable situation on
7.1 (no patch) when pulling up a search menu with > 2k records in it, it
worked fine in the client, but Mid-Tier gave this error when we tried to
open the menu.  Support had me turn on servlet logs in the mid-tier
config and found errors when calling a specific servlet, etc, etc, blah
blah, they eventually provided Patch 2 (server, not mid-tier) that
'fixed' this issue, but by then I had engineered around the problem, so
I haven't experienced it since, I doubt that it's your issue, but
thought I would chime in..:)

Subject: Q: Underlying Specifics - Data Connection

** 

We've been experiencing an intermittent connection error for the past
couple of years and it is something we really need to try to resolve.
By intermittent, the application works great for everyone most of the
time but occasionally, the following error pops up:

 

"Unable to set up a data connection, which is preventing the application
from working correctly. (ARERR 9351)"

 

We're behind some firewalls and this pops up in a browser session while
performing a save and/or performing a retrieval of information.  Our
midtier is located a couple thousand miles away from our database server
and the midtier and database are set to use a specific port.  Our
assumption is that at that moment, there is a brief connectivity problem
that causes this-especially since it appears more often at certain
offsite locations that at others.

 

We have submitted a ticket to BMC since the error guide simply adds "An
internal error occurred during a back channel request from the browser
to the mid tier server."

 

I'm basically looking for anyone who might have more information on what
underlying problem would cause this specific message?  What kind of back
channel request?  It is related to something specific that we could
possible code around?

 

Any ideas are appreciated.  I'll be turning on all of the logs and
looking for an answer but wanted to tap the combined expertise for
possible remedies...
