Autodesk GIS Design Server

[#1]

Hi,

We are trying to use LTC (Long Transaction Cartridge) within the Generic
Application in AGDS 8.0, upon Windows 2000 (client and server), ORACLE 8.1.7
and Autodesk Map 5.0 in Spanish.
After following all the installation and configuration instructions, the
system hangs on when we try to manage versions.

We have tried to access LTC functionalities by two ways:
1) using the generic application's Component Browser: Autodesk Map 5 hangs
on after entering a version and performing any further operation, like
showing the version properties (the properties dialog box appear, but AMap
is hung on, not responding to any mouse or keyboard event)
When we make the version active at first time a message appears, but it
seems that
everythig is still working. The message is "Llamada a procedimiento o
argumento no
válidos" (in english, this message would be something like: "Not valid
Procedure
call or arguments")
2) calling vewProjectManager.Load() by VB code:
Private Sub iniciarProjectManager()
Set unaSesion = New vewSession
Set unaConexion = unaSesion.Connection
' startup the Message Window
unaSesion.AutoMessageWindow = True
'Connection initialization
unaConexion.UserName = ...
unaConexion.Password = ...
unaConexion.port = ...
unaConexion.HostName = ...
' connect the PC Client to the Server
unaConexion.Connect
' Write the Connected OK message to the Message Window
Call unaSesion.GmlExec("mes {Connected OK!};", vewGECComplete)
'Program Manager initialization
Set unProjectManager = New vewProjectManager
'Session to project assignation
Set unProjectManager.Session = unaSesion
'Loading projects
unProjectManager.Load (False)
End Sub
This operation results in the following error: "Visual Basic: Error 1211
en tiempo de ejecución: .\Accessdb.cpp: 464: No spatial db, in
dbAccessData::GetActive".

En this second case the same error message appears when we are connected
to
an AGDS Oracle Spatial DB as well as when we are using a traditional AGDS
DB.

ORACLE has been fully installed, AGDS has been fully installed as well and
we have followed all the LTC configuration steps (in administration guide
and in Data Cartridges guide).

What is happening?

Thank-you,

Hello Antoni,

In case you installed Autodesk GIS Designserver and
checked also the installation of the Long Transaction and the Advanced Security
Cartridge, you should be able to use it from the components browser interface
via the version category.

There must be something gone wrong during the
installation when this is causing the system to hang. Please check first the
AGDSInstall.log if there are any errors reported.

Following the Data cartridges manual you should
check if

a) the UTL_RAW PL/SQL package is installed on the
Oracle server

b) the users C$VIS_SE_1, C$VIS_SE_1, C$VIS_PL_1
exist on the database

c) check if the version is created in the
G_VERSION_DEPEND table of the user related to the specific
database.

hope this helps,

Dirk Doerrenberg
