Error Message: the broker cannot resolve your request

This error message typically arises when your DSN is misconfigured. To remedy this problem, take the following action:

  1. Use a text editor to open the oplrqb.ini file which resides in the /bin/ sub-directory of your OpenLink server components installation.
  2. Locate the [Domain Aliases] stanza. For example:


    [Domain Aliases] Progress 81A = pro81a Progress 82A = pro82a

  3. The Domain keyword of your DSN should be set to one of the left-side values. For example:


    Domain = Progress 82A

  4. If none of the existing Aliases is suitable, you can add a new alias to the list, including something custom for your user base, and put that in your DSN. For example:


    [Domain Aliases] OurProgressDatabase = pro82a

  5. There should already exist (or you can create) a properly configured Mapping Rule, Agent Configuration ([generic_...]) stanza, and corresponding Environment stanza, which correspond to the right-side value for the alias in your DSN. For example:


    [Mapping Rules] pro82a:*:*:*:*:*:* = accept generic_pro82a ... [generic_pro82a] Program = pro82a_sv.exe Environment = PROGRESS82A ServerOptions = -q -d mdy -TB 31 -TM 31 ReUse = never ... [Environment PROGRESS82A] DLC = C:\DLC Path = C:\DLC\BIN;D:\WINNT\System32

  6. If you have made any changes, save the Rulebook, and stop and restart your Broker.
  7. Test.
