Symptoms


Customer deployed remote eConfigurator functionality in their
production environment. Here users sometimes receive following error
message:

(rmodel.cpp (2460)) SBL-SVC-00203: Not connected to server



When users attempted to configure order again, then all seems to be
working. Before and after this error message user properly connects to
Configuration server.



Cause


Change Request #10504967
was created to address error "SBL-SVC-00203, Not connected to server".
The description of this change request is "Random failures of accessing
remote eConfigurator with DeltaQuote". It can happen when DeltaQuote is
invoked on a timed out remote connection, for instance from a previous
DeltaQuote.



The error could be reproduced with following scenario:


1) Check what is currently set for eProdCfgKeepAliveTime on AOM


2) Setup simple testcase:


Create a BS in the application (Administration - Business Service) with following code:

function Service_PreInvokeMethod (MethodName, Inputs, Outputs)

{

   var s = TheApplication().GetService("Configurator Service");

   var inp = TheApplication().NewPropertySet();

   var out = TheApplication().NewPropertySet();


   inp.SetProperty("Product Id","dummy");

   s.InvokeMethod("DeltaQuote",inp,out);


   return (CancelOperation);

}


The first run will create a new remote eCfg session which will return
a session specific cookie. It will also show an error message from
DeltaQuote because of missing input parameters. Please ignore the error
as we only use DeltaQuote for reproducing problem with remote session.


3) Wait for eProdCfgKeepAliveTime --> remote eCfg session is timed out


4) Call upper script again and you get following error message: Not connected to the server. (SBL-SVC-00203)


70*SBL-SMI-00107: Internal: The context for the given task was not found.1*013*smimtpool.cpp3*8490*0*0*0*

63*SBL-SMI-00216: Internal: Not an error, all the threads are busy1*012*smiworkq.cpp4*15770*0*0*0*

70*SBL-SMI-00107: Internal: The context for the given task was not found.1*013*smimtpool.cpp4*10330*0*0*0*


5) Call it again at once. Error disappears and a new session is started. Behavior is as in 2) described



Solution


As a workaround please increase parameter eProdCfgKeepAliveTime on
AOM. This will not remove the error but it will happen more rarely. If
the error happens please repeat your last action. This should be
successful as well.

Please note: If you change eProdCfgKeepAliveTime on AOM then
ConnIdleTime on remote eConfigurator OM should be greater
than eProdCfgKeepAliveTime (i.e. eProdCfgKeepAliveTime+1).


Defect is fixed in following Siebel versions:

Information in this document applies to any platform.



Symptoms






Upon launching the eConfigurator session, after
leaving it idle for around 20 minutes, trying to to select a product
(for example: selecting a checkbox). Upon doing this, encountered an
error popup with this message: Not connected to the server.
(SBL-SVC-00203) 70*SBL-SMI-00107: Internal: The context for the given
task was not found.1*013*smimtpool.cpp3*8090*0*0*0* 70*SBL-SMI-00107:
Internal: The context for the given task was not
found.1*013*smimtpool.cpp3*9910*0*0*0*. Econfigurator session actually
times out and hence this error occurs.








 


Cause



Econfigurator session actually times out and hence this error occurs.


Solution



Server parameters can be  set in order to extend the timeout duration for the eConfigurator session. 



You can specify how long product
configurator sessions remain active by setting the server parameter for
Keep Alive Time. This parameter specifies the time in seconds that a
session can remain idle before the session is timed out. The default
value of -1 means that the session can remain idle indefinitely and will
not be timed out.



Parameter Name: eProdCfgKeepAliveTime



Display Name: Product Configurator - Keep Alive Time of Idle Session



Data Type: Integer



Default Value: -1



Description: The amount of time in seconds that a configuration session can remain inactive before the session is killed.


For detailled information on setting for Product
Configurator and Remote Product Configurator please refer to Bulletin
Optimizing the Launching of Siebel 7 and Siebel 8 Configurator (Doc ID
477007.1)


For more special hints and techniques regarding
performance for Product Configurator please refer to Bulletin:
Optimizing ISS Processes (Doc ID 477006.1) 


Customer set  server the parameter for eProdCfgKeepAliveTime to 2700 seconds on both server component: 

1. eCommunications Object Manager (ENU) 





Please note: If you
change eProdCfgKeepAliveTime on AOM then ConnIdleTime on remote
eConfigurator OM should be greater than eProdCfgKeepAliveTime
(i.e. eProdCfgKeepAliveTime+1).




The eConfigurator session is timing out after around 45 minutes as expected.

***Checked for relevance on 27-Jun-2012***


Symptoms


Customer reports a component crash when pushing button Explanation within eConfigurator



Cause




This issue is a defect in 7.8.2.10 web client.



Repro steps:

Create a root product with 2 child items:

root

|------a

|------b



1) write a rule: a requires b

2) Validate product

3) select a --> b is selected automatically

4) remove b --> you get an error page with buttons Undo, Proceed, Explanation

5) click on Explanation button



--> the underlying object manager process crashes.



Following error messages can possibly be seen in the logfile:

SBL-SCB-00011

SBL-SSM-00006

SBL-SVC-00203



Following business service/method is called:

Configurator Session Service, GetDetailedReqExpl



Callstack of the crash:

IloExtractable::getImpl()

IloModel::getImpl()

IloConfiguration::getImpl()

IloConfiguration::getCatalog()

IlogConfigRequestManager::getPortFromPath

IlogConfigRequestManager::reinterpretFailedRequest

IlogConfigRequestManager::generateFailureExplanation

IlogConfigRequestManager::getFailedRequestExplanationIterator(bool cheapXpl=false)

ConfiguratorWorker::getFailedRequestExplanationIterator(bool cheapXpl=false)

CSSCxSession::GetDetailedReqExpl

CSSCxSessionMgr::GetDetailedReqExpl

CSSCxObjInstService::GetDetailedReqExpl


Root cause:

Issue does not occur in V8 or 7.8.2.8 and earlier. It is the result of some code changes in 7.8.2.10.



Solution


As a workaround please disable the action behind signal
GetDetailedReqExpl under Administration - Order Management - Signals.
However this will remove functionality and is a temporary fix to avoid
the crash.
