I have been unsuccessfully trying to connect and add a database to a pervasive server from a computer that only has the client installed (accross a LAN). I have even tried the VB DTO examples that come with the latest SDK. The same error occurs.

With the user name and password I get error 7004, the User Count Manager cannot write to the specified file or it's a general failure code.

Unfortunatly I do not underatand what it causing this errors and I have no idea how to resolve them. I have found some references to these errors in the pervasive website, but they did not resolve my issue.

The username and password that I am passing is our network administrator username and password. It has rights on everything. I have even tried to see if it could be case sensitive, but no luck.

How do I resolve this issue?
Does the Pervasive client or server need any special configuration?
How about user configuration or rights on either?
Any light that can be shed on this issue will be appriciated.


Thanks and Good Luck!

Zemp - are you trying to connect to Timberline (Pervasive)?
 
No, Pervasive 2000i SP4. The one used by AccPac.

Thanks and Good Luck!

What happens if you try to use the DTO app locally at the server with the same username/password? Does it work? Also, how are you specifying the server name? Is it "servername" or "\\servername" or something else?

I have specified the servername as "Servername", "\\ServerName","SERVERNAME" and "\\SERVERNAME". It does not seem to matter.

On the server it first failed, no DTO.dll. After the DLL was installed I was able to login with the app installed locally on the server.

From the client, using the login information that was successful from the server, it still failed.

Thanks and Good Luck!
