Title: IIS6 - ASP.NET 3.5 - DCOM Interop
Post by: catalintudor on April 14, 2010, 10:08:01 pm

Hello,

I'm managing the access to different EA repositories (different instances of EA.Repository for different connection strings) from the same ASP.NET 3.5 page.
In the development environment (Cassini Web Server), everything is OK, but not under IIS6 (w2k3 Server with SP2).

The DCOM security is well configured  for EA.App (the NETWORK SERVICE user has the permissions for local lunch, local activation and local access;  the identity is set to an user having admin permissions) and I set also the AspCompat="true" in the page (for STA compatibility).

The problem seems to be related to the call of EA.Repository.OpenFile method.
Only the first repository could be initialized by calling OpenFile; the initialization of the second instance hangs indefinitely.

Thanks for help and hints!

Have you asked Sparx support?

I'm sorry I can't help you with this. I've only created dll addins before.

Hello Geert,

thanks for your reply.
I sent few emails to sparx support ([email protected], [email protected]) and even to [email protected].
Unfortunately I didn't received any feedback. :(

Try the report a bug (http://www.sparxsystems.com/support/bug_report.html) link on the bottom of the page, then it automatically gets logged into their system.

Hello,

I can help:
http://blog.lieberlieber.com/2009/09/16/running-enterprise-architect-on-a-server/

Pls be aware EA was never designed to be used liked that. My Personal feel: It's ok for Build Server and so forth - but not for huge traffic!
