.NET Business Connector Session Terminated

You were right, that RPC error is of no use, the key was that the session was lost.
I can reproduce the error:
- I start my .NET windows service that uses the BC.NET
- go to AX - Adminstration - Online users
- terminate the BC.NET user sessions
- execute an action that triggerd my service to use the BC.NET

What I then did, is add a try/catch to my service, and a loop so I could reconnect to AX with the BC in case the error occurred.

Like this:

public void DoSmth()
{ int retryCount = 1; while (retryCount >= 0)
{ try { object o = axapta.CallStaticClassMethod("DAXClass", "DAXMethod", "parameter"); break;
} catch (Exception ex)
{ if (retryCount < 0)
{
logger.Error(ex.Message);
} else {
logger.Debug("Retry. Recreating connector instance");
 axapta = new Axapta(); this.Login();
retryCount--;
}
}
}
}

The login method looks like this (logger is log4net object):

private void Login()
{ try {
axapta.Logon(null, null, null, null); } catch (Exception ex)
{
logger.Error(ex.Message);
}
}

I'm no .NET expert, but that code worked for me.

Thx for the assistance,
I hope this helps others too.

Best regards,
Klaas.

==========
I found the solution to my particular problem. I doubt it applies to you tho Klaas, there are probably much more common causes of this error.

I was using imersonation when initiating the connection to AX, then reverting it. This is a common partern that works for SQL. Using AX4, this seems to intermittently fail with the “Server has terminated the session” error (AX5 is fine). I stopped using impersonation and it has been working without any issues.

===========
We faced the similar issue in AX 2009 (ax 5.0). Restarting the SQL services fixed the issue but would like to understand the core cause for the same. Any relevant guidance would help. Thank you.

Mark All for Open Cust Trans and Open Vend Trans

We have situations where there are lots of open transactions that need to be settled against each other. This can be the case if auto settlement is turned off. One solution is to add a "Mark All" button to the custOpenTrans or vendOpenTrans forms. This button "checks" the mark checkbox on every line. The user can then uncheck several lines if needed and Update to settle the lines. The code below is an example of what we used on the open vendor transaction screen. The code is very similar on the AR side. One note: I used vendTable.AccountNum in the code below. That should be generalized to work with any buffer that is passed into the open trans form. void customMarkAll() { VendTransOpen localVendTransOpen; VendTrans localVendTrans; container conSum; int linesProcessed; ; //show wait cursor startLengthyOperation(); element.lock(); //remove all prior markings specOffsetVoucher.deleteSpe...
