Accessing tables on another server

Michael

Hello all.. I hope everyone is doing ok during the plague. Praying it passes soon.

I have a copy of OI running on a local box. No UD, Revparam is set to ServerOnly = 0. When I try to Listmedia or Attach an OI data folder on another server (ServerOnly = 0), I get this error msg:



I've never seen this error before and can find no documentation. Does anyone know what's up with this?

Thanks, and be safe..

That means your DLL pointer is missing. How did you create this local copy of OI? Was it a copy of a version that was working or is this a new install? Also, did you install anything recently in this copy of OI?

Michael

My client copied it from a system that was working. They ran the ClientSetup app as well.

I've copied OI systems before and have never run into this.

DonBakke

I've seen this happen a few times and it seems related to changes with the UD client. What version of OI is this?

Michael

9.4

After it was copied, the Revparam for the OI copy was changed to ServerOnly = 0, as was the Revparam on the target volume.

Try downloading this RDK and install it. Hopefully it will restore your DLL pointer.

Michael

Will give it a shot. Thanks Don!

Michael

Installed RDK. I still get the same error from Attach or Listmedia.

DonBakke

I actually wonder if the RDK installed. In order to install it would need to do an Attach. If your Attach commands are failing then I would expect the same problem when installing the RDK. Can you try to attach the RDK table (rather than install) just to see if the SYSUPGRADE table is visible?

Michael

Will do. Trying one other thang right now.

Thank you sir!

Michael

No Attach or Listmedia will work. They both bomb out with the same error.

DonBakke

Have you tried to switch the client driver to something else, like 2.1?

Michael

We'll be going with a different solution. Thanks for all your help!
