Hi Mike

Thanks for the link - I got to the same thing through what Kevin gave me. Here are some of the results of looking at those points -

DDM server is started on IBM i
There don't appear to be any firewall issues locally
Should be no authority issues with server program - QRWTLSTN is the program it is listening with - *PUBLIC had *USE
Job description is QDFTJOBD - it does exist

When I try the "Verify connection", and get the message that connection to record access fails, I ran

netstat -a -n | find "my ip address"

I see that port 446 is in TIME WAIT

I just tried to connect again - Port 446 is in TIME WAIT on the IBM i, too. Ports 8473 and 8475 show as established.

This USED to work fine for the last several months.

Today I advanced logging to include error, warning, and information - I see one item that seems to mention verify connection -

Exception in VerifyConnectionAction.internalRun()

This is some time after mention of the EVFA1020, and after an ADDLIBLE to the system.

Should I try a -clean start of RDi? I don't know where to go next.

Also make sure that your user profile is enrolled to use DDM and not
restricted from using it external to the IBM i.

OK, later

So that's where it's at now.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Record Access connection failing - how to diagnose

I connect to a couple different systems. I'm using 9.5 and also have 9.1
on my laptop, my problem occurs with both versions.

One of the systems gives me an EVFA1020 dialog when connecting - host
servers not started. The other system does not have that problem.

And on the verify connection I get the report that "Connection to Record
Access server failed".

First, what is the port used by "Record Access server" - I suspect 446,
but I can't find THAT name anywhere, Googling or KnowledgeBase or
whatever.

Finally, we need some help analyzing and determining - logging is set at
minimum, I see that EVFA thing mentioned, no details.

I've wondered about local port blockage on the laptop - corporate
policies on it - but that's a WAG.

The result is, I can open members for browse and I CAN'T open for edit.
And I do NOT want to even think about editing in SEU! Fully-free does
not play well there, as you know - basic understatement there!

Regards and much thanks
Vern
