My companies ES server went down tonight at around 5pm PST. The error was related to the being unable to contact the 'activate.micro4.com' server.



This doesn't seem like it should happen, that if you licensing server goes down, my server goes down as well. Please advise if there was some configuration I should have done or if there was some other issue I could address. My ES server was attempting to contact 'activate.micro4.com' whenever a user attempted to login (maybe other times as well, but we never got past login).

Working on a reproduction...I will let you know when I have something for you.

Thanks!

We have found the location that could cause this to fail and will be posting a fix with the next update.  Just thought you would like to know   If you have an immediate need for this, let me know, but there will be another 1.6.6 build here pretty quick as there is a new language that we failed to implement in the previous build (Czech).  So probably sometime this week.

Thanks Trent! I do have an immediate need for this.

I have posted a build that addresses both of the issues that you have run into on ES.  You can get it here: http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost16782.aspx

Let me know if you have any issues.  We did prove it and test it, so you should be good, but we made a change the the MicroFour License Base.dll assembly which changed the public token key.  It should now match the ES assemblies...so if you have more than one version of this in the GAC (if they are even in the GAC), delete the one that has a public token key that doesn't match the ES assemblies.

Trent, so far all looks good. The issue I was having with FillMultipleDataTables seems to be fixed. Haven't tested the issue with the activation server yet.

Good.  The activation server part won't fail any more.  This was just a bug under certain conditions...we really try hard to never let the server die.  We just missed a spot, so it is now fixed and all is well

Glad to be of service!



(finding the bug!)

I fixed my post typo ...boy, you are keeping toes lately
