Hi,

i am trying again with ewb, played with ewb1 now ewb2

i have a problem with the following error

Error: Dataset load response error ( cannot connect to server)

this works ok http://epos4u.4irc.com:6005/datasets?method=rows&dataset=butts

i am using the following, had it working on ewb1

Database.BaseURL:='http://epos4u.4irc.com:6005/datasets?method=rows&dataset=butts';
Database.Loadrows(mybutts);

the ewbsrvr is on my spare pc

many thanks,
Riaz

I think your issue is the need to open the dataset :

Database.BaseURL:='http://epos4u.4irc.com:6005/datasets?method=rows&dataset=butts';
mybutts.Open;
Database.Loadrows(mybutts);

before you load the rows.

Forget that - doesn't make any difference.

Could it be a cross origin block?

thanks for prompt replies, tried the cross origin, still same error

i had it working in ewb1

will keep trying unless someone can solve and give an example so i know where i am going wrong

Thanks

I tried it here and couldn't get passed the cross origin block. If you could add the appropriate headers to your server I'd be happy to test further.

thanks for reply back,

i have no idea how to add headers etc,

this cross origin seems to be a nightmare for me

thanks for your help squiffy

Riaz,

try this:

Database.BaseURL:='http://epos4u.4irc.com:6005/datasets';
Database.Loadrows(mybutts);

From the help:

property BaseURL: String
Usage

Specifies the base URL used when loading datasets with the LoadRows
method. The default value is "datasets".

Sorry I can't help further, but I don't use ewbserver (I use either php or B4J as the back end). I'm not even 100% sure what it is...

The xsite origin stuff drove me mad for ages. All I can recommend is that you confirm if that's the issue by running the JS console on your browser. The error will show there. If it does show you need to set  

Access-Control-Allow-Origin : *

somehow, but that will require someone who knows about ewbserver to help.

Good luck.

Hi Uli,

thanks for the reply,  tried that, still same error

even put the html on a test server still the same
