How to use udl file to test connection on windows server2008 R2?Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi, I have a new server with windows server 2008 R2, and my website will connect the SLX with the SLX Provider.

I installed the Client OLE DB Provider successfully on the server 2008 R2, but I cannot connect to the SLX server, it said "No error message available, result code: E_FAIL(0x80004005). " on the website.

When I try to connect SLX server with udl, I found there is no SalesLogix OLE DB Provider listed on the Provider tab.

I think its because the different between 32 bits and 64 bits. but I don't know how to fix it.

Does anybody know how to resolve this problem? Thanks

Now I can use udl file to test connection on my 64bits server by run the command:

C:\Windows\syswow64\rundll32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\System\OLE DB\oledb32.dll",OpenDSLFile C:\test.udl

but when I save the test.udl, I double click it, it still says "Provider cannot be found. Ensure that the provider has been installed properly".

And when I run the website, it still shows the error"No error message available, result code: E_FAIL(0x80004005).
"

Anyone help me how to make the SLXOLEDB Provider works on the 64 bits server?

You must create an empty test.udl file in c:\ first. So, goto to c: - right click and New File - call it test.udl and then run the command above:

C:\Windows\syswow64\rundll32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\System\Ole DB\oledb32.dll",OpenDSLFile C:\test.udl

Thanks for reply.

Yes, I did exactly what you replied, I can test connection successful by this way.

But my website which use SalesLogix Provider still cannot connect to the SLX server.

And when I saved the test.udl file, If I double click it again, it says:" provider cannot be found". I think that's mean the provider still cannot run automatically on the 64 bits server.

Any suggestions? Thanks

You cannot double-click it - this is only used to generate a UDL/connection string. If you double-click the file you will try to invoke the 64bit OLEDB controller and it will then not be able to find the SLXOLEDB.1 provider - which is only 32bit. Hence the error - this is not an error and is to be expected.

The web-site and server etc. is a different issue entirely! Can you start a new thread and put in the issues you face ( "not working" needs fleshing out - with something more useful )
