CWBCFG /? CA/400 has a executable CWBCFG. This command is used to allow the IIS service to attach to the AS/400 with ADO. I don't know whether newer versions of CA/400 have changed this issue but it certainly was required in the past. I hope this resolves the issue for you. If not, please post again but I'm hoping this will do the trick. Also... I've had to reboot the PC server even though I wasn't instructed to do so.

Everything works correctly on my machine, running a local installation of IIS. I can access remote SQL server data or AS/400 data. However, when I run the ASP pages on our application server, the ASP page always "hangs" on the "open connection" line when retrieving AS/400 data. I have Client Access installed on the application server. The server can access the SQL server database, but not the AS/400 database. The web page doesn't time out, but sits there for a very long time (I stopped timing it after 5 minutes). The script hangs no matter which type of AS/400 connection I try to use: DSN: "DSN=mydsn;Uid=uid;Pwd=pwd" DSN-less: "driver={Client Access ODBC Driver (32-bit)};system=system;uid=uid;pwd=pwd" I set up a standalone server running a default install of IIS and Client Access, and have the same problem. It would appear to me to be a configuration issue, but I'm not sure what to check. I'm pretty new to ASP, I think I missed a configuration setting or piece of client access installation somewhere on the server. All of our servers are in the same network subnet. If I need to provide more information, let me know. Any help appreciated, thanks!
