Unable to connect to SLXOLDEB - Unexpected errorYour last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hello,
I'm using the following connection string to connect to SLX to retrieve the RWPass value.
I get an Expected error after the time out expires.
Exception message:
"No error message available, result code: E_UNEXPECTED(0x8000FFFF)."

Full error message:
"System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: No error message available, result code: E_UNEXPECTED(0x8000FFFF).
at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionInternal..ctor(OleDbConnectionString constr, OleDbConnection connection)
at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionFactory.CreateConnection(DbConnectionOptions options, Object poolGroupProviderInfo, DbConnectionPool pool, DbConnection owningObject)
at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionFactory.CreateNonPooledConnection(DbConnection owningConnection, DbConnectionPoolGroup poolGroup)
at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionFactory.GetConnection(DbConnection owningConnection)
at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionClosed.OpenConnection(DbConnection outerConnection, DbConnectionFactory connectionFactory)
at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection.Open()
at UpdateSalesLogix.clsSLXRecordset.GetRWPassword()"

I've reinstalled the OLE DB provider. No Change in results.

I'm on a Vista 32 bit machine running SLX 7.5. The code previously worked on SLX 6.25. I've converted the code from VB6 to vb.net 2008. Only one hard drive (C, 3 gigs of ram.


Dim conn As OleDb.OleDbConnection = New OleDb.OleDbConnection(g_conn)
conn.Open() ' Times out and dies here

Dim cmd As OleDb.OleDbCommand = New OleDb.OleDbCommand("SLX_RWPass()", conn)


Any help would be appreciated.

g_conn is listed below.

Provider=SLXOLEDB.1assword="";User ID=admin;Data Source=yogibear;Initial Catalog=dbNameersist Security Info=True;Extended Properties="Log=ON;IncludeCalcFields=OFF;TIMEZONE=35;TrimCharFields=TrueORT=1706"

Additional information:
this connection string works, but of course will not provide any sync processing:

driver={SQL Server};server=(local);uid=sysdba;pwd=masterkey;database=dbname

PS Love all the smiley's that should up in the connection string above (shaking head in amusement).

I'm on a roll today, that was the ADODB connection string.

This is the OLE DB connection string:
Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=192.168.1.100;Initial Catalog=dbname;User Id=admin; Password="";

First thing I would do is compare your connection string with that obtained from a UDL file. Details of how to create the UDL file in this thread:

Thank you,

Those directions helped.

The problem was what I considered the initial catalog to be the SLX Name and not the name of the UDL entry. Most people I know make them the same, I always make them different so I know when which is which. Well, so much for planning

Thank you again, I appreciate the support.
