Server exception occurred: An error has occurred while trying to connect to server version '8.0.0'.

I have confirmed the reference toEcrion.Ultrascale.NET (Version 8.1.0.3702; Path C:\Program Files\Ecrion\XFUltrascale 2013 v8.1.0\Client\.NET\2.0\Ecrion.Ultrascale.NET.dll).  I have XF Ultrascale 8.0.0 service disabled,and XF Ultrascale 8.1.0 Started. Please assist with this manner.

Answer: Thank you for contacting us with your inquiry

You are receiving that error because the side-by-side mechanism calls the older version. The 8.0.0 service is disabled so the application is unable to connect to the server. 

As of January 2013, we have implemented a new functionality that enables side-by-side installation when you have 2 versions of XF Ultrascale installed on the same machine. This helpful functionality can assist in transitioning from an older version of XFR allowing the usage of either version as you completing regression testing. Please note that this functionality is supported starting with XF Rendering Server version 7.5.0. All versions inferior to XF Rendering Server v7.5.0 will not be side by side compatible. More information about the side-by-side behavior can be found here in our documentation: 

http://ecrion.com/Temp/HelpCache/XFRenderingServer3/framed_side_by_side_installation.htm 

To resolve this error, you would need to specify in your code which server version to be called for rendering. Please add the ServerVersion rendering parameter, as shown below(The syntax is the same for both .NET and Java):

RenderingParameters p = new RenderingParameters(); 

p.ServerVersion = "8.1.0";

The ServerVersion parameter specifies the desired server version to be used when multiple instances of XFUltrascale are installed on the same machine. The default value is 0.0.0 which means that the lowest installed server version will be used for rendering:

public String ServerVersion = "0.0.0";

Question: I’vegot an issue where sending a request to our Ecrion Ultrascale server, we get a404 response (from the IIS server containing the Ecrion Web Service).  The XSL template + XML content combinationrenders when the content is 7MB in size (a bigger size possibly works too) Whenthe XML content is 20+ MB, that’s when the 404 happens. We would appreciatesome insight & assistance with this issue.

Answer: Thisissue can be fixed by increasing the sizelimit for the length of the content which can be sent via the web service.

Please openweb.config (from C:\Program Files\Ecrion\XF Web Service\Web Application) in atext editor and add the following settings to the configuration file (add theseat the end of the file, before the ending </configuration> tag):

<system.webServer>

    <security>

      <requestFiltering>

        <requestLimitsmaxAllowedContentLength="2000000000" />

      </requestFiltering>

    </security>

  </system.webServer>

In addition, tomake sure that everything works fine, please increase the executionTimeoutvalue from system.web – httpRuntime.

Q: When we use server templates, wehave to manually add each template to the management console.  Is itpossible to set an application to point to a folder so that any template inthat folder can be?

A: This iscertainly possible using XF Rendering server. This process can be achieved bycopying the templates in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\ApplicationData\Ecrion\ServerTemplates\{folderName}. For Windows 7 or 8 users, you wouldcopy the templates in C:\ProgramData\Ecrion\ServerTemplates\{folderName}:

If you don't see the templates in the Management Consoleafter copying the templates to the specified folder, you would need to do thefollowing:

1. Restart XF Rendering Server by going intoManagement Console, selecting XF Rendering Server, and click the ‘RestartService’ button:
   
   

After the restart of both XF Rendering Server and the Management Console, the templates will be visible in the server templates folder.

NOTE: For Linux users, you would need to do the following to set up server templates:

1. Add the templates in the /opt/Ecrion/Common/Ecrion/ServerTemplates/ folder
2. You would need to XF Rendering Server, please run the following command: /etc/init.d/ultrascaled restart

Based on the specifics on what you’re trying toaccomplish with server templates, you may want to look into our EcrionOn-Demand Solutions (EOS) suite. To find out more information about EOS, feelfree to email us at info@ecrion.com.

For example:
