.NET Extensions Deployment
Posted: 21 Jun 07 10:36 AM

I have successfully created a .NET extension and I am able to access it from the sales client on the machine where the admin tools are installed without any problems.
But using a sales client on another machine (same login) did not work.
So I used the "Deploy All" menu item within the Extension Manager, which created an sxb bundle file. I then installed this bundle using Administrator and restarted the client on the other machine.
Unfortunately, the extension is still not available on this one (the handle returned by app.Managed.Create is always empty).
Is there something I am missing that needs to be done in order to make this work?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Ingmar

Hi Ingmar,
Basically you create the bundle and then apply to the other system or you can load up the Extensions Manager on the other system and load the assembly in there.
If you open the assembly in the extension manager on the other system does anything look different than on the first system?
One other thing I've seen on occasion is that the .NET extensions stuff didn't get properly registered on a machine. If this is your case you can manually rerun the registration by running the batch file location in the SLX dir named "RegisterSLXNetExtentions.bat". Give that a try.

Thanks, Ryan!
After running "RegisterSLXNetExtentions.bat" on the other machine everything worked fine.
I hope I will not have to do this on each client when we roll out the new version...

This post is to everyone in this newsgroup.
I ran into this same problem, and I called SalesLogix tech support. They gave me the same answer, and it worked as well. Ingmar's hope at the end of the message before this message is my hope as well. .Net Extensions should work on any installation of SalesLogix, not after digging through newsgroups and calling tech support, only to find you have to get access to installation privileges and perform a separate installation on every machine. It looks like, according to Ryan, this only happens sometimes - and from what it looks like to me, it happens on any machine where SalesLogix is installed using a built client network install, not the install disk.
Anyway, last time I complained about something being a defect (remote office creation errors out if you set up a join on an enabled view in the join manager), tech support said it technically wasn't a defect, that I should submit it as a feature request, and that if enough people requested to have it taken care of, the product manager would probably take care of it (Really? You think someone out there is fine with failure on creating a 5 gig remote office database?) So, if any of you wouldn't mind, please take a moment to log into Support.SalesLogix.Com, click on "Feature Request" in the bottom left corner, and fill out the form requesting automatic .Net Extensions install.
Thanks! |

| So, after speaking with my business partner, Unison, about this, they mentioned that it should be part of the install package for the client if you choose to build a separate client install. I took a peek, and indeed, it is listed. However, it is checked by default, and I am 99.9% sure I did not uncheck it - which means, despite it being checked, .Net Extensions were not installed. Does that mean this is a defect? |
