Connecting to BO 3.1 using 4.0 SDK

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm trying to use 4.0 SDK to connect to BO 3.1 system. (need to support both BO 3.1 and 4.0 using the same client)

Trying to obtain IEnterpriseSession (using ISessionMgr.logon) fails with the following message:

-

---

com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKServerException: Enterprise authentication could not log you on. Please make sure your logon information is correct. (FWB 00008)

cause:com.crystaldecisions.enterprise.ocaframework.idl.OCA.oca_abuse: IDL:img.seagatesoftware.com/OCA/oca_abuse:3.2

detail:Enterprise authentication could not log you on. Please make sure your logon information is correct. (FWB 00008)

The server supplied the following details: OCA_Abuse exception 10498 at [.\secpluginent.cpp : 832] 42040 {}

...Invalid password

The username/password seem to be correct, also 4.0 to 4.0 connection works fine, same with 3.1 to 3.1

Any idea? Do anyone knows whether using 4.0 SDK with 3.1 BO is supported at all? Is there any workaround?

Thanks a lot!

Using one version of the Enterprise SDK to connect to a different version is not supported or tested.

Even if you got it to log in there is no guarentee that other method calls would work.

I would not advise you to try to use 4.0 SDK to connect to BO 3.1 system. Cause 2 differents systems.

Instead try to use 4.0 SDK to commect to BI 4.0 system and try to use 3.1 SDK to connect to BO 3.1 system

Thanks
