Verastream Host Integrator 6.5 Known Issues
Technical Note 10075
Last Reviewed 18-Jan-2008
Applies To
Verastream Host Integrator version 6.5
Summary

This technical note describes known issues with Verastream Host Integrator 6.5 and provides suggested solutions and workarounds when appropriate.

General Issues

32-bit Components and 64-bit Applications

The Host Integrator C, COM, and .NET connectors are 32-bit components and cannot be used with native 64-bit client applications. If you are running 64-bit IIS, you can skirt this limitation by configuring IIS to run in 32-bit mode.

Windows Vista

Host Integrator may not properly install on Windows Vista. For more information, see Technical Note 2152.

Web Builder Issues

If you are upgrading Host Integrator from an earlier version, see also Technical Note 40031 for Web Builder upgrade issues.

Rebuilding Legacy ASP Procedure-based Web Applications

To rebuild a legacy ASP procedure-based Web application, it is necessary to restart IIS, and then rebuild the application.

When Web Builder first creates a Web application it automatically deploys it to IIS. Because the application cannot be redeployed over an existing deployment, for the application to work correctly, restart IIS and then rebuild.

Error Building a Project on Windows Server 2003

On Windows Server 2003, when generating a .NET Web Application or Web Service project in Web Builder, you may encounter the following error when you build the project:

"error ASPCONFIG: The current trust level does not allow use of the 'compilerOptions' attribute"

Follow these steps to resolve the error:

  1. Open the Web.config file in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\<Project name> and add the trust level:
<system.web>
<trust level="Full" originUrl="" />
</system.web>
  1. On the main window of Web Builder, right-click the project name.
  2. Click Rebuild. In the Rebuild Project dialog box, click "Precompile ASP.NET Application" and click Build.

Procedure List Truncates Lengthy Procedure Names

When using the Classic Silver theme template, the procedure list in the Web application truncates lengthy procedure names rather than resizing or wrapping the text. You can correct this by modifying the layout.css file:

  1. Resize the div.menu class to accommodate the length of the procedure name.
  2. Modify the size of the margin-left value in div.content to avoid overlapping.

For example, if you set the div.menu class width value to 30%, and set the div.content margin-left value to 30%, the procedure names are not truncated in the CICSAcctsDemo procedure list.

Alternatively, in layout.css, you can

For Mozilla Firefox, add overflow: auto; to div.procedures for all themes.

-or-

For Internet Explorer, add word-wrap: break-word; in div.procedures for all themes.

Terminal Screen Display Issue

If you are deploying a Java Web application project to an Oracle 10 application server, you may encounter a problem with the terminal screen displaying. To correct this, follow these steps:

  1. Add the xalan.jar (in <VHI install directory>/lib/java) and xercesImpl.jar, (in <VHI install directory>/ant/lib), to the WEB-INF/lib directory in the generated WAR file.
  2. When deploying, set the webAppClassLoader/searchLocalClassesFirst deployment plan option to true.

Generating .NET 2.0 Applications

Adding .NET 2.0 framework after installing VHI 6.5 results in nonfunctional Web Builder .NET options. For Web Builder to generate .NET 2.0 applications, follow the steps in Technical Note 40034.

Error Generating .NET Web Application on Windows Server 2003

Generating a .NET Web application or Web service on Windows Server 2003 may trigger an error during the build process:

error ASPCONFIG: The current trust level does not allow use of the 'compilerOptions' attribute.

Follow these steps to correct the error:

  1. Open the Web.config file in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\<Project name>.
  2. Add the trust level as follows:
<system.web>
<trust level="Full" originUrl="" />
</system.web>
  1. Open the Web Builder main window; right-click the project name.
  2. Select Rebuild. The Rebuild Project dialog box opens.
  3. Select Precompile ASP.NET Application, and then click Build.

WebLogic 9.2 Issues

An exception may occur when the enterprise application sample is deployed to BEA WebLogic 9.2.

The solution is to extract the jca-examples.EAR file and remove the versioning information in MANIFEST.MF.

See http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs92/dvspisec/version.html for more information.

WebSphere Issues

When establishing a connection between the Java EE Connector and a Host Integrator session server, using IBM WebSphere, use a standard connection. You may not be able to establish a secure connection.
