We have a client using ads local who is getting the message "cannot
establish connection to adsserver" with an error 7077. the connection
string specifies adslocal.
same aplication is running in 100's of other installations with no
problem..
our old version (which did not have the capability to run ads server), did
not have this problem on this client's machines... (but there could have
been more software installed since the old version was last used.)
it seems there is something else running on the machine which is
interfering with the ads functions..
Does anyone have any ideas of what programs we might look at for conflicts
??
Thanks
Brian
The 7077 error is specific to using the data dictionary file. The first
thing to try is to delete the .ai file. If that fixes the problem, then the
most likely cause of the problem is that the language setting in the
adslocal.cfg is incorrect. If that does not fix the problem, then look into
the ads_err.adt and ads_err.dbf to see what other errors are logged before
the 7077 error. Is the path to the data dictionary correct?

Alex,
there were no .ai files. Eventually, we did get everyting working after we
deleted some other files... 2 of the stranger files we deleted were a file
called c (no extension) and a file called ini (again no extension).
