Correct Username and Password Fails

[quena]

I have a webservice that logs into a certain company and checks whether an order exist.

The problem is that on the server when i try to log onto the company with correct credentials i get :

System.Exception:Invalid Signon Information.

i know the credentials are correct because i can log into Accpac using them and i know my code works because the webservice works on the test server.


please help.

The password must be in upper case.

The password is used in uppercase format.
Has anybody heard of the need to rebase certain dll's?

What is "rebase certain dll's" ?

I've had a developer (Technisoft) rebase some DLL's, but it's extremely rare.

You can check this link about rebasing:

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/DLL/RebaseDll.aspx

But I do not believe that your original error
"System.Exception:Invalid Signon Information."
relates to the basing of DLL's.

Invalid Signon Information means just what it says.

Oh, yeah, definitely not. Your login is a basic problem.

Technisoft rebased some DLL's for me two years ago because their version of their web app didn't work quite right with Accpac System Manager 5.3B. It was fixed in version 5.4, and we've never looked back.

IF i take the exact same code and paste it into a windows application it works perfectly.

But not with the webservice...

"It must be a rights issue" a hear you say. well i have turned on local impersonation and assigned it to
common files,accpac folders.

Totally stump by the fact it works on one test server and not on the proposed live server although there seem t be no difference in setup between the two.

The Re-base thing was just a desperate grasp at straw i think.

Hi all

The impersonation user that i used did not have enough access rights (OS RIGHTS) on the live server.

I found that out by logging onto the server using the impersonation user instead of my normal logon and found out that i could not log into Accpac "no istalled organizations"

After they increased the user rights of the user that i needed to use for impersonation my webservice logged on successfully.
