Sorry i have only ever played with uniobjects with ASP and never used it in anger - i use uniobjects.net - it is correct you should not use the old uniobjects with .net but use the uniobjects.net api as this is fully managed code.
However I am quite sure some people on this list do use uniobjects with asp.

The forum posting I'm referring to is from Jan. 2007 and says "the current version doesn't do too well with .Net - it is not thread safe, which limits SOME of the things you can do with it (ie don't try using it through a web server)". Here's the link: http://212.241.202.162/cms/cmsforum.wsp?action=topic&forum=1&topic=26 http://212.241.202.162/cms/cmsforum.wsp?action=topic&forum=1&topic=26 I know forum posts are not always accurate and the IBM website indicates that both UniObjects and UniObjects.net are fine for web apps. FWIW, the error we're getting in IIS is "A trappable error occurred in an external object. The script cannot continue running". What's strange is that even when we see that error, the app sometimes continues working and other times we have to restart IIS. I'm trying to figure out if I need to re-write this app using .Net or take some other approach to solve the issues we're having. I'm also wondering if isolating this app into it's own application pool in IIS would make a difference (I understand that may be a question for an IIS forum). Thanks for your response.
