Closing connection in ASP

Magno

Hi,

i have to write a connection in ASP to Navision DB Server 3.6
it works, but when i close the connection in the code, and i look to the connection in the database, the connection is still shown.

So i conclude the connection in navision is still pending. in ASP however i am sure the object and the connection are closed.(checked with conn.state) and the i set conn=nothing. but still showing in navision itself...

Does anyone know how i can solve this?

this won't work, try instead of rs.open strsql,strdsn
make a connection first, this one must be given as 2nd parameter like:

Dim strSQL, strDSN 
Dim i 
strSQL="Select * from Customer" 
strDSN="DSN=Navision" 
Set rs=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") 
set conn=server.createobject("ADODB.CONNECTION")
conn.open strDSN
rs.Open strSQL,conn

...
...

rs.close
set rs=nothing
conn.close
set conn = nothing

don't forget to close connection and recordset and clear them, otherwise your webservers memory will be full quickly.

Hi

Thanks For ur reply

Now i am using this code as per some more reviews and ur suugestion

Code is

<%
Set conn=server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set RS = server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")
dsn = "DSN=Navision"
dsn = "DRIVER={C/ODBC 32 bit};"
dsn = dsn & "UID=super;"
dsn = dsn & "PWD=super;"
dsn = dsn & "sName=local;"
dsn = dsn & "NType=tcp;"
dsn = dsn & "CN=CRONUS Dutch Ltd.;"
dsn = dsn & "CSF=Yes;"
dsn = dsn & "SERVER=N;"
dsn = dsn & "RD=No;"
dsn = dsn & "ML=2048;"
dsn = dsn & "CD=No;"
dsn = dsn & "BE=Yes;"
dsn = dsn & "CC=Yes;"
dsn = dsn & "RO=No;"
dsn = dsn & "QTYesNo=Yes;"
dsn = dsn & "IT=a-z,A-Z,0-9,_;"
dsn = dsn & "OPT=Text"
conn.Open dsn
SQL="Select * from Customer"
RS.Open SQL, conn
%>

Even with this code i am not able to connect with Navision Native DB and still i am getting ISAM Error
](*,)

Please suggest me the solution

make sure the hosts file is filled in(%windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts)
with a line like (127.0.0.1 local)
or instead of sName=local put sName=IPADDRESS
If you run more than 1 server => the services file(same dir) must be filled in to.

if it is not a database server the dsn must be something like
(otherwise don't use the sName=local!!)

DRIVER=C/ODBC 32 bit;
SERVER=N;
CN=CRONUS BELGIUM NV;
RD=No;
ML=2048;
CD=No;
BE=Yes;
CC=Yes;
RO=No;
QTYesNo=Yes;
IT=a-z,A-Z,0-9,_;
OPT=Text;
PPath=C:\Navision Clients\Navision Attain 3.6\Client;
Database=c:\Navision Clients\Database.fdb;
CSF=No

I had a isam error to,
the reason was the hosts file the first time and my server wasn't running the second time.

Hi

I have checked that hosts file and it is ok with that line u had suggested

But still i am getting the same ISAM error

ok can u tell me that should i write the whole code which i have shown to u in ASP file or just after assigning these vaues in DSN i have to write few lines like

Set conn=server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set RS = server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")
dsn = "DSN=Navision;"
conn.Open dsn

oh scahde

that even works

Please tell me where is the problem as i think u have did this task with the same profile and error.

Thanks

visgold

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)

You got a missing "dsn & ", is that suppose to be missing?
And, because of that, your code will end up having missing "dsn = "DSN=Navision;"" in your connection string.

Magno

thats not important, its just a name you give your dsn. the DSN=XXXXX tag isn't needed to work correct
