  • Adam - LOL. That is too funny. I don't think I've seen that before but it perfectly explains both problems. Yes, SRPUtil.ocx is only for the SRP Editor, although it has all of the same controls that SRPControls.ocx has. We did this to make it easier…
  • Chris - It might be unique to your XML init string. Can you send that to support@srpcs.com? We have to use the same method to initialize our Ribbon control so there is something different between our environments.
  • Adam - what is the path you put the OCX file into?
  • Feel free to email me privately on this as I would be interested to pursue this matter. I am not aware of any bugs and we have a number of implementations. If I can help you or help guide ChargeItPro I'd be happy to do so.
  • I take it that you decided ChargeItPro wasn't an acceptable solution?
  • Chris - Is this all you have to report? This seems like the same information you shared a couple weeks ago. I'm not sure what else we can do for you without more information or a copy of your system to test with.
  • Not at this time. The client only sends data but it does not act as a listener or return data synchronously. Does Verifone not have any easier APIs, such as REST or another HTTP-based solution?
  • Adam - I'm going to guess that when you run the OI form with the Picture control, the space where the control resides is white. If so, that implies the control did not register properly. 9 times out of 10 the reason a control doesn't register prop…
  • Barry - Do you think that removing line feeds alone is the issue? Haven't you had success with other JSON POSTs where the line feeds are present? I don't doubt that this allowed your API to work, but I am still convinced this is an IIS problem. I be…
  • Paxton - I get the impression you have not gone over to the technical documentation site for the SRP Zip utility. I think this will help you sort through your questions. But, to give you a quick response: * SRP_Zip_Open will create the zip file i…
  • Paxton - Yes, I think you do not understand what you can do with the SRP Zip utility. Perhaps if you explained what you thought it was designed to do I can help explain things better. However, I thought the examples posted in the product information…
  • Paxton - These results do not surprise me. I would have expected the command line to behave the same as the DLL call. They probably are both impacted by the same environmental differences. IPCONFIG is not constrained by such differences. I know thi…
  • The request log file is really just the OECGI incoming request structure with the @FM's converted to CR/LF. You can see this in the HTTP_MCP controller. This request structure is defined by Revelation's INET_EQUATES insert. In the case of the highli…
  • Mark, Just to make sure I'm following you, is a good example of where the "problem" is observed the "Rest Break" label? I can see that it appears to use the background of the form's gradient rather than the background of the tab's gradient.
  • I don't have enough technical knowledge to answer that question. Others on my team might have an answer for you.
  • I doubt that the problem is related to losing arguments. Earlier when I suggested using UNC (BTW, I overlooked that this was what you were already doing...sorry about that), I was thinking your problem was due to the differences in the way a Windows…
  • Paxton - Your OECGI/OEngineServer session might not see the same folders. In fact, I would doubt it. Can you try UNC paths instead?
  • Barry - BTW, there is nothing wrong with storing the PDF file in a dedicated folder on the server once it has been generated. Your API code can first see if the PDF file exists before it makes the request to OI. That can help with efficiency. Of co…
  • To properly answer that question requires a bit of understanding of how the web (i.e., HTTP/REST) views resources. I've known all along that your application makes a rather direct relationship between the URL (i.e., the resource identifier) and the …
  • I don't think I can help you. You are treating a web server as a glorified file server, which is contrary to how the web is supposed to work. There are many technical ways to do what you are intending to do but if you don't intend to implement a RES…
  • I'm sorry for not giving you a direct answer, but I am 99.9% convinced that what you are asking for is a non-HTTP and non-RESTful solution. Give me a use case for this and I'll let you know what I think is the best solution. Also, what is the HTTP M…
  • If you encoded the data then it is no longer binary. This is why the GetResponse service didn't recognize the PDF. As to what you should do, that depends on you and how this is supposed to work. If you intend to display the PDF directly in the brow…
  • What header?
  • That is odd. "text/html" is the default when no other type can be identified or if no other type has already been set. Here is the relevant code from the GetResponse service: ContentType = HTTP_Services('GetResponseHeaderField', 'Content-Type')…
  • Barry - Instead of returning text-based content (like JSON or anything else), just read the PDF file and pass this into the Body argument of the SetResponseBody service. You should set the IsBinary argument to "1" and the ContentType argument to "ap…
  • I'm not overly familiar with the RTI_TASKMANGER tool, but I believe you are always launching OpenInsight. I don't think you can use this to talk to an already running OpenInsight. If OpenInsight is already running, it is running in a loop and checki…
  • Barry - I saw you posted on the Revelation forum as well. I'll respond here since this is where you posted first. :) 1. I think Bob Carten has suggested using code to launch OI on-the-fly using the RTI_TASKMANAGER. This will eliminate the need to l…
  • Barry - Nope. This won't work because OIPI requires event context (i.e., the Presentation Server to be running). You have two choices. The first option is to run OI as a desktop app on the web server and create a mechanism where the web service oeng…
  • Guys - I've been away from the keyboard for most of the day so I'm just now catching up on this. It looks like you definitely figured out the nature of the problem and came up with a solution. Barry, kudos on creating the new service. Well done.
