Here's an issue that could cost you lots of troubleshooting time to fix. While weborb is a stellar product IMO it is lacking in thorough support docs. Probably that is fine since a commercial client can purchase phone support, but I digress. The problem aka bug aka omission I refer to in weborb 3.6.0.3 results in:
Code Generation Failed
This is the result of an attempt to generate the all-important client-server serialization classes that weborb builds. The client classes are downloaded from the weborbconsole while the server classes are written to the bin directory assuming your permissions are properly set to allow this.
Permissions are easily set via Windows IIS or your webhost control panel. Permissions are also easily reviewed from your website of interest thanks to the diagnostics.aspx page provided. Potential issues are even coded red. Easy enough.
Problem is essentially the result of a wishlist item added to Weborb 3.6 and released 12/02/08, Visual Studio templates. I didn't even expect to find them, but did so and began enjoying the ease of deployment templates offer. Only problem is, they won't work unless you add the XSLT files in the ODBC directory from the original full vers of weborb30.
I tried other stuff for a while to fix the prob, then finally read the error text logs on my deployment and discovered the omission. As stated before, Weborb is the Barry Bonds of remoting, a real slugger for joining up RIAs for web and I can't say this enough. The fact that I could rely on the framework tools to hunt down the error and fix it is one reason why. Now, has anyone else had this problem? If so, I hope this helped.
