Hi Steven,
What version of UniData are you running on the test box? My current experience is that on UniData 6.0 ObjectCall does work, however on UniData 6.1 hp/ux it ObjectCall is fatally broken! (if anyone has a workaround to get ObjectCall working on hp.ux/udt 6.1 I'd be interested.) In answer to Ken's failing memory, the unix admin program is uniapi_admin; on Windows (6.0 and above) we have resorted to registry hacks to administr ObjectCall. My advice to to rewrite your application as IBM are no longer supporting ObjectCall... I have been trying to get rid of ObjectCall for sume time; unfortunately it just quite refuses to die!!! (we use it as part of our DataStage solution). One good thing though, our experiences with 6.1 will finally deal the fatal blow to our use of ObjectCall... Martin N.B. If anyone does give me a solution to our UniData 6.1 ObjectCall problem then I promise not to tell our developers! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ken Wallis Sent: Friday, March 11, 2005 9:28 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [U2] [UD] Objectcall again -- Australia 432, New Zealand 433 and 0/9 Steven Frost wrote: > Sent: Friday, 11 March 2005 2:10 PM > Subject: [U2] [UD] Objectcall again -- Australia 48-2 > > I am still having a bit of an issue with the Objectcall API > Objectcall ping works fine to both the live database and the test > database ( different unix servers) When the uniapi.ini file is > pointing to the live system , the connection via the web page is good. > When we change the uniapi.ini to point to the test server, and refresh > our login asp page,the connection fails . > > The web page uses a 3rd party "pclogin.dll" and I have no idea what is > inside. I am assuming Objectcall.

ObjectCall doesn't go through unirpcd and has nothing to do with the unirpcservices file as far as I know. You'll find entries in /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf on your live UniData box I think which relate to UNIAPI or something similar. You need to set up similar entries on your test box. The key component is uniapisvr IIRC. I think there is a server admin program for it too, but it has been such a long time since I played with ObjectCall and I don't have access to a box where it is running at the moment. Cheers, Ken PS. Well played New Zealand. Not many people expected the Black Caps to be competitive. For what was billed as the fastest deck in NZ, Christchurch has provided a pretty flat track. Do you think it will break up on the 4th and 5th days or is it just dead? ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
