ASP, jagproxy, EAS 5.5 and PB 11.5

[Junior]

Has anyone had any luck using and ASP to call a component in EAS 5.5
using jagproxy? I've done everything I think I need to do but when I
call the method I get:

The invocation of method testcall on Component Security/
SecurityManager failed : The invocation of the method on the Jaguar
Server failed because a transaction was rolled back.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of
the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more
information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The
invocation of method testcall on Component Security/SecurityManager
failed : The invocation of the method on the Jaguar Server failed
because a transaction was rolled back.

My log is giving me this:

Servers.

Thanks for any help.

Hi - unfortunately I can't help with calling from ASP, but... that
appears not to be your problem - you can't call the function because
the activate failed. I dont know what code you have in your activate
event, but I would try reducing this back to a simple object that
perhaps sets increments an instance variable in the activate and then
returns the value of this instance in a method. That will at least
prove that you have the PBVM and environment setup and that you can
successfully call from ASP. Without seeing your code I can't be
certain but I think you have some failing code in the activate event
that is confusing matters.

on a side, I was interested to see that you are using PB 11.5 with
EAS5.5. There doesnt seem to be any official support for this
combination? did you just install the VM and did it just work ?

Activate is working. I have had a case logged with sybase for over a
month. They know the problem and have recreated it. Does it really
take over a month to get a fix?????? I've run out of patients with
them. As I said the activate works. It seems to fail on the retrieve
of the datastore.

Actually, according to the documentation PB 11.5 and EAS 5.5 are
compatible.

Thanks

FWIW -- The State of TX is presently using PB 11.5.1 (4608) components
on EAS 5.5.

Upgrading to 6.3.x is in the pipeline for 2011.
