  • Mark, Are you convinced this is an IIS issue or are you still considering other causes? If you wanted to rule in/out IIS, I recommend you install Abyss and test it under the same conditions. Abyss is free (for what you need it for), is easy to inst…
  • Hi Mark, No, nothing I have come across. However, if IIS encountered such a problem, I would expect it to return a 414 error.
  • Cool. So you have a plausible solution then?
  • Mark, Honestly, I had considered this to be a length issue, but thought it was a maximum length issue rather than a specific length issue. So I overlooked the pattern you finally discovered. This also makes more sense of the anomalous values you a…
  • Okay, well perhaps you had already made the connection, but this tells me that the IIS header problem is directly related to the Authorization header after all. This certainly seems to be a key element. But I'm still baffled as to why certain end po…
  • Also, I have seen IIS report 500 errors with OECGI frequently. I think it was one reason we moved away from IIS. I never figured out why is does this so often.
  • Hi Barry, I saw your post there but hadn't the time to respond. There are two ways I've seen this done. The first is to enable RTF mode with the edit box control. The other is to use an ActiveX control that supports formatted text. In OI 10, they a…
  • Mark, When you are testing from a browser, how are you doing this? Are you just entering the URL into the address bar? Thus, is it fair to say that you are not passing in the Authorization header when using the browser as a client?
  • I think your notes above give me the answer to my next question, but just to be sure...when the authorization header is missing, all additional values are missing as well? Thus, this does not seem to be specific to the Authorization header? I'm stum…
  • Mark, Are you inspecting the request array early, such as in HTTP_MCP before the SetOECGIRequest service, or later? If later, I would suggest that you to inspect the request array before any of the internal services touch it and make changes to it.…
  • Mark, Okay, I'm 99% positive this is IIS swallowing the header for its own use. The same problem occurs with Apache. Both web servers assume you want the web software to manage the authentication. Thus, they take the Authorization header data and a…
  • Mark, what web server software are you using?
  • Mark, As Colin mentioned, he did submit an RDK for us to work with. As last week was RevCon 2016, we did not have an opportunity to test it but I suspect this week we'll take a look and see what we can do.
  • Hi Colin, Actually, my comment was directed to Mark, not you. He had offered to send us an example (I would have guessed an RDK) so we could use it to test on our end. It seems that the original thread ended with him saying he would get back to us.…
  • Colin, It does indeed look like the same problem Mark ran into. Mark, As I recall from reading through the other thread, you were going to send us something to work with for troubleshooting purposes. Did that ever happen?
  • Mark, I may have responded a bit stridently, so I want to revisit this topic. My reservations against OAuth come from two concerns. First, while OAuth is quite popular and is becoming the de-facto authentication protocol by just about everybody, it…
  • Dave, Yes, multipage form just like in OI. Make the OLE control "All Pages". The specific event that the SRP Tab control generates is OnSelChanged. However, this won't trigger unless you properly qualify the event so OpenInsight is listening for i…
  • Hi Dave, When you ask about "how to name" the controls, are you referring to the ProgID? If so, then all of our ProgIDs are documented in the "info box" that appears on each controls's main wiki page. For instance, here is the SRP Tab controls main…
  • Hi Mark, We've implemented a solution for OI to act as a client that connects to another web service via OAuth, but we have not had a requirement to implement OAuth as an authentication protocol within the framework. If you needed to do something a…
  • Colin, I'm not sure how you provide copy/paste capability, but you could implement a right-click context menu to help. The ShowContextMenu method and the OnContextMenuClick event make this easy to implement.

  • Colin, No, not really. There are no supported drag-and-drop features with the SRP EditTable. I know developers have simulated the experience using code, but I don't think the experience has been ideal.

  • Mark, I can't say for sure, but I would have expected ADD to be better since it does not have to track a pointer into the array nor worry about allocating elements of the array that are not referenced.
  • Aaron, I can't answer that technical question. If it requires us to provide some kind of interim solution (i.e., to avoid the need for a full implementation), I am doubtful we would provide such a tool. My suggestion is to wait for us to do our ow…
  • Aaron, Actually, we aren't using Codejock for the editor. We are using Scintilla (albeit an older version). But I'm glad to see you understand the potential issues. We first need to see if the control supports dark backgrounds. I think it does. The…
  • Aaron, This is not a response to be taken as a "yes" or "no" to your request. I don't have enough internal information to make that call just yet. But I do want to offer some general comments: * Right now we are hyperfocused on the conference. W…
  • Ken, It seems like Kevin has a handle on why you are asking for but I'm a little slow in visualizing this properly. Do you have an example from another application (perhaps from MS Office) where you see this done well?
  • Ken, This isn't necessarily relevant to your specific problem, but I would like to suggest that you replace your ALL_OLES special keyword with individual OLE events that you want to qualify. Since OI 9.x, qualifying with ALL_OLES has been known to …
  • Ariel, Also, please confirm the version of your control.
  • Ray, My best guess is that something is running on the machine such as AV or Malware blockers that is preventing the installation from proceeding. I don't know why this creates a process that can't be deleted, but I'm sure this is the fault of the …
