Great, thanks. I installed VisiBroker 3.3 for C++ and got it working, kind of.
Simple Java WAI applications work fine, but as soon as I call
netscape.WAI.HttpServerRequest.setResponseStatus(status, msg);
I get
org.omg.CORBA.BAD_PARAM[completed=MAYBE, reason=null Strings are illegal in IIOP.
Please correct your application or run the ORB in backward compatibility mode.]

Seems like the WAI classes are not compatible with VB 3.3 after all ...
Any ideas?

I'm cross-posting this.

I found one thing; the -DORBbackCompat=true java option for running the ORB in
backward compatibility mode. When I use it it still doesn't work, but it's a
new error:
org.omg.CORBA.MARSHAL[completed=NO]

at netscape.WAI._portable_stub_HttpServerRequest.setResponseStatus

I'm running out of ideas ...
