Replication mechanism

Hello,
My situation is as follows:
I use Replication in my Mobile Application and when the PocketPc is
connected via USB the replication works fine. But when I tried to synchonize
the data via WLAN it does not work. My quoted url in my code looks as follows:
oRpl.InternetUrl = "http://IP-Adress/HelpDesk/sscesa20.dll"; //I also tried
it to replace the IP-Address with the machineName of my Desktop but it does
also not work.
I also tried to type in this address in my PocketPc when the WLAN is
activated but it occurs always an error that this page could not be loaded.
Does anybody know what else could be go wrong?
thx
patrick
what is the error message you are getting?
Also what happens when you use IE to connect to this url from your PocketPC?
You should get a message saying SQL Server CE agent or something like that.

|||That's the strange thing no error message occurs. When it is possible to
call this url "http://IP-Adress/HelpDesk/sscesa20.dll"; with my PocketPc and
the SQL Server CE Agent message appears, does then the replication must work?

|||Not necessarily, all it means is that your Pocket PC can connect to the web
server and the virtual directory. I think it also means that your web server
security is set up correctly. Now check the underlying security of your
snapshot folder. Does this reflect read access for the anonymous account
(IUSER_MachineName, or whatever account you are authenticating with)?
Then you should run profiler to determine how far into the replication
process your pull is going. This will help to trouble shoot further.
What would be really helpful is if you could post the error message your
program is raising.

Replication Mechanism

Hello,
My Replication works fine when my PocketPc is connected via USB Cable with
the Desktop. Do I have to implement any additional things that the
Replication Mechanism also works with WLAN? (My PocketPc has WLAN). Is the
oRpl.InternetUrl the decisive factor? - because at this url I have stated the
following url: http://machineName/HelpDesk/sscesa20.dll.
thx
robert
That depends.
On your Publisher do this: http://machineName/HelpDesk/sscesa20.dll
I think this gives you a message saying something like "SQL Server Agent CE
Runnning" or something like this.
Then on your Subscriber issue the same query through the Ineternet Exporer
program. You should see the same result.
If you do, you have connectivity and your problem is likely with setting up
security in your script. If you can't you have to configure security on your
publisher.

|||Okay thank you for your reply, unfortunately I have two more questions:
1)Do I not have to replace the machineName with my IP-Adress of the desktop
when I call this in the IE of the PocketPc?
2)And what can be the problem if this would not work, although with
connectivity of the USB it works?
thx
robert
|||1) You may have to. The pocket pc will attempt to do name resolution on its
own using a local broadcast. If the IP address works and the name doesn't
you have a problem with name resolution.
2) with the USB you have two options in active sync, connecting to the
INternet or work. If you were connected to work it will find your host no
problem as it is using USB. If not, it has to do the same name resolution as
it will using Wireless.
