C++ DI connection problem SAPB1 2005 sp1

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a problem connecting to a simple database. The code used to work with the SAPbobsCOM67.dll (2004). Now with a fresh installation, using the demo company and with SAPbobsCOM2005.dll, it is not working. I compared my code to the available sample (no S, there is only 1 available) and it is exactly the same.

---

SAPbobsCOM::ICompanyPtr oCompany("SAPbobsCOM.Company");

oCompany->Server = (_bstr_t)strServer;

oCompany->UserName = (_bstr_t)strUser;

oCompany->Password = (_bstr_t)strPsw;

oCompany->CompanyDB = (_bstr_t)BDName;

oCompany->UseTrusted = true;

oCompany->Connect();

---

Connect() returns -111 : failed to connect to SBOCommon

then i tried without the Trusted:

---

SAPbobsCOM::ICompanyPtr oCompany("SAPbobsCOM.Company");

oCompany->Server = (_bstr_t)strServer;

oCompany->UserName = (_bstr_t)strUser;

oCompany->Password = (_bstr_t)strPsw;

oCompany->CompanyDB = (_bstr_t)BDName;

oCompany->DbUserName = (_bstr_t)BDuser;

oCompany->DbPassword = (_bstr_t)BDPassword;

oCompany->UseTrusted = false;

oCompany->Connect();

---

Now the application never returns from the Connect(), the cpu jumps to 100%, and it is slowly eating all the memory available. (around 20k/sec)

I tried with hardcoded values,

I reinstalled SAPB1,

I tried without the firewall,

I ran the application on the server,

same problem.

now the strange thing: I tried to Connect using a different language (using a basic vb script)

here's the .vbs

---

SET oCompany = CreateObject("SAPbobsCOM.Company")

oCompany.Server = "BD_SERVER"

oCompany.UserName = "user"

oCompany.Password = "password"

oCompany.CompanyDB = "SBODemo_US"

oCompany.DbUserName = "bduser"

oCompany.DbPassword = "bdpassword"

oCompany.UseTrusted = false

oCompany.Connect()

oCompany.GetLastErrorDescription()

MsgBox oCompany.Connected

---

It can connect. it is also working with the UseTrusted.

---

Anybody ever connected to an SAP B1 2005 sp1 database using c++ ?

Are there any technical differences between the VBS & C++ ways to use the COM objects ?

Could it be a bug within the dll ? how can I report it or get assistance in that case ?

Thanks!

update:

I created a new project ('hello world') and only added the #import line + the code writen above.

in the new empty project, I still get the -111 error when I try using the trusted, but I CAN connect to the database using the bduser/bdpassword.

the new project is working with the same settings (compiling/linking).

Let me know if you have any ideas...

looks like i should post in a C++ forum..

Thanks

Jo,

Can you connect with the SDK sample code or do you also get an error?

in a new project, i can.

in the project i'm working with, it won't work; to make sure it is not a problem in my code, I created a simple button on the main dialog and cut & pasted the sample code. Still get the same error.

My application uses many COM objects without problem. It is the first time I see something like this. I will update this post if I find something.

Thanks

Could you post the #imports you do + eventually cleanup the SM_OBS_DLL sub-directory in the <TEMP> directory...

...just to exclude the "usual suspects"...

This is the import:

#import "C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\DIAPI\2005\SAPbobsCOM2005.dll" rename_namespace ("SAPbobsCOM")

and I deleted everything in the SM_OBS_DLL dir.

I don't know if this can help, but here is the Connect() debug output of both project (Usetrusted=false).

the 1rst one enters in a loop, the 2nd returns 0 (connected). The code and the #import are identical (cuted and pasted).

Ok the problem comes from the application filename (???)

If i build my app using the original name (lets say APP.exe), it is not working (looping in the Connect()).

if i build my app using the original name, and THEN rename it APP2.exe, it is working.

A firewall problem ? no it's not, I disabled the firewall and I still have the same behavior.

Please let me know if you have an idea why this is happening.

Thanks for your help,

Jo
