Automatic syndication fails but manual syndication works

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I'm using two repositories. For one of them there is no problem, automatic syndication (mdss) works fine. The other one is a different story. For this second repository manual syndication works but auto syndication fails, how can this be?

Hi Paul,

Check the following:

1. In MDSS.ini file, check under the repository section yyyyyyy whether Admin user's password is defined only in case if the Admin user has some password. For this remove 'E' from the attribute PasswordE, give the admin password and restart the syndication server. When you again check the entry you will find that it would have been converted to PasswordE.

2. Check the port status. It should be empty. If not then recreate the port and assign the outbound map to it.

Hi Guys,

Well it turned out that autosyndication was failing due to double attributes in one of the tables. All is working now.

Thanks for your responses!

Hi Paul,

Please check the mdss.ini configuration details and also check if the processing type is set to automatic.

Please refer to link below and reconfirm the steps to be used

Paul,

I assume these two repositories are running on the same MDM server.

As for as one of the repository's automatic syndication is not working issue; check wt the MDSS.ini config and also make sure the Outbound Port of the same is set to automatic.

please feel free to revert to us...

Hi Alexander,

First of all thanx for the fast response!

Well yes port is outbound and processing is set to automatic.

The server log shows this:

<Trace ts="2009/03/23 16:06:37.682 GMT" tid="1136679264" entry-no="22005">Auto syndication processing a repository: XXXXXXXXXX on REQ</Trace>

As you can see autosyndication works for XXXXXXXXXX but noy for YYYYYYYYYY. The strange this is it does work manually but I would like it to work automatically.

The assertion log shows:

<Error ts="2009/03/23 16:10:26.649 GMT" tid="1136679264" entry-no="22195">Error Initializing Attributes for table MPGS<LF/>Application will exit<LF/>Already exists</Error>

I am not sure what this means and am currently convinced it has to do with the issue of autosyndication failing. What do you think?

Thanks,

Paul,

Since you say manual is working; i really dont want to ask you is your Syndication map holds any records in it. But I would like you to check the map is assigned to the outbound port as well.

I will reply to you as soon as i get something interesting.

thanks

Alexander
