Hi,

I'm having 'fun' with revcapi trying to make my process run across multiple engines.

Right now I can start 1 engine on the same pc I'm doing my development on, but when I try and create a 2nd and 3rd I'm getting 'Cannot create Engine 2, error 3'

Which really isn't very helpful as I don't know what error 3 is! Does anyone have a link to a list of codes and text, or is there something useful hidden within OI?

Any help would be very, very much appreciated.

How many users is your copy of OI licensed for? Each engine consumes a user license. Look in the Applications Event viewer as to what the error is.

Ahhhhhhh, that makes some sense - we've got more developers in OI than usual at the moment… thanks for that!

I must admit I'm not familiar with the Application Event viewer - how do I get to that?

Oh. A couple of the developers have gone home which means 2 licences ought to have been freed up, and I'm still getting the same problem … maybe it's not that simple after all :(

One of my colleagues suggested I try running it from a Runtime environment - that didn't help either.

The 2nd and 3rd engines start up and the "RUN START_WINDOW ''" appears in the Sys Monitor window. (And at that point it's definitely only done the CreateEngine, not the CreateRequest, so I don't think it's a bug in my code)

Thanks - that's a useful thing to know :)

Sadly, although there are some errors in there, there aren't any that match the times I've tried to create the engines.

Most likely errors will be logged on the server or where ever you have the dll installed.

D'oh! Of course… I should've realised that.

However - I couldn't spot anything on the server's event logs either. I shall take another look tomorrow morning (and reboot my pc in the meantime - something I don't do willy-nilly as the roaming profile sometimes takes half an hour to update or load)

thanks for your help so far :)
