Submiting items purchases with iBO 15.2.0.2229

Hi everyone,
I have an application that uses iBO. So far it was working ok with iBO 10x and 15.1.3.x but when I tried it with 15.2.0.2229 I started to have problems submiting purchases.
At this moment I only tried paying products and dues renewals, getting the following errors:
 
Err Num: 1000 - Source: (iboSubscriptions.CSubscriptions.Save):  Unknown error. Description: ActiveX component can't create object
Err Num: 1000 - Source: (iboOrders.CStdOrder.Save):  Unknown error. Description: ActiveX component can't create object
 
It's most likely the same issue, but I can't undestand why it stoped working, and I can't debug deeper than those metods invocations.

I've already tried reinstalling iMIS and iBO, checking if the dlls in Windows/system are the correct ones, but the problem remains.
 
Any thoughts?
 
 
Thanks in advance

How to remove "Messages" text from Password recovery page

Hello, does anyone know how to remove the "Messages" text from the password recovery page? This is displayed on the message iMIS gives after you enter your username. There is a block of text on this page that iMIS lets us update via the admin panel, and that is fine, but there is a title here called "Messages" that we cannot access and our client would like us to change it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Change Login and Passwords using iBO.NET and CContactUser

Trying to get this script to change logins and passwords on existing users.  Any idea how I get access to the CContactUser object to assign the new login and password?  

 

The program compiles and runs, with no reported errors, but it does not change the login and password.

Code:

 

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;

Terminal server log in issues for iMIS desktop client

iMIS 15.1.3.6699 version.

New client install on Windows 2008 remote desktop server.  Group Policy created to publish application to users.  The iMIS client can be launched without error when directly on the remote desktop server when logged in as my user ID.  When I test to log into another server with the same user ID, the iMIS desktop comes up blank like below.   Is this most likely some type of permissions issue? I can't seem to nail down what is causing it.

Conditional Javascript not allowed??

We have a very basic <script> tag placed in the content placed holder header of a custom aspx page.  The javascript causes a text box to appear when a radio button is selected.  However, the for loop (that parses selected radio button options) as well as the conditional (if/else) statement are NOT firing.  When i developed the page on my local host before integrating it, it worked flawlessly (it's a simple function). However upon incorporating it into wcm......broken! i placed alerts all throughout the function to see where it's not firing and it refuses to execute the conditional or the loop. Is there something in wcm that must be enabled to allow conditionals? Is there something else I'm not aware of in WCM?? Any assitance is appreciated.

fxing your indexing service

If you don't see any events or products listed on your site, and your services are running, and apparently configured well, there is another thing to check.

go to you IndexServiceProtected folder, right-click, hit properties, and Advanced.

Make sure that "Allow files in this folder to have contents indexed in addition to file properties." is checked.

If you had deleted & recreated the folder, this may have become unchecked, and the indexing service won't see what's there.

Finding Data in the Database

It's sometime useful to search an entire database to find out where some specific data is... for instance, you entered data into the UI but you aren't sure where it got stored.

This post contains a SQL Script to search a database for any specific string in any column in any table in your database.

To use this script, simply edit the first line to set the @value variable to the string you wish to search for (see the comment).  You can include "%" as the standard SQL Wildcard character.  As is, the script will search for any string starting with "C:\" ... but you can use exact strings or any arbitrary string you wish.

iMIS, ACCPAC and Crystal Reports: crpe32.dll

We are having problems with clients that have both iMIS 15.2 and ACCPAC (financial package) installed on workstations.  Following the upgrade of iMIS from 10.6 to 15.2, some machines were having problems runnig custom Crystal Reports, with a message reading "iMIS Crystal Runtime Error. Unable to load report." Standard Crystal Reports were running fine, and we narrowed it down to a known issue with multiple copies of the crpe32.dll.  ASI/iMIS community advice is to delete or rename this file in every location except the one in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Crystal Decisions\2.0.
