2215.0. "entera 3.1 fail to work - rpc error" by DEKVC::SOOHWAJEONG () Thu Apr 10 1997 01:55

Hi.

Is there any reference site entera3.1/DCE running DU4.0b and digital DCE 200

Enter 3.1 failed to run.
The error message is as follow

     endpoint not found(dce/rpc) -- code 16c9a01f

Entera engineer argue that DU 4.0 should be changed to DU 3.0.

I really doubt that change of DU 4.0 has effect.

Regards

Soohwa Jeong

Pardon my ignorance, but what's 'entera'? 

As regards the specific error you're seeing, that will typically
occur when a client makes an RPC call to a machine that isn't
running the server application. It's unlikely that this is would
be different on UNIX 3 and 4, unless there's something in the
application that is sensitive to the difference (e.g. the good
old threads standards :-), which is itself causing the problem
you're seeing. For example, I suppose one could envisage a
scenario where the application server used the D4 threads
standard under Unix 3, then the unix machine was upgraded
to V4. If the change in Unix version (and hence threads
standards) caused the application server to fail, then when
the client tried to call it, it might get an error like the
one you're seeing. In such a case as this, the real error is
NOT the endpoint error (this is merely a symptom) but a problem
in the application server code which is preventing it from
running correctly.

Is it possible that something like this is preventing the application
server from running under Unix 4?

I believe Entera is a three-tier client-server development tool from
Open Environment Corp. (now Borland) that can use DCE as its middleware.
