GdPicture Imaging Forums

Hi,

I have been trialling GdPicture Pro for a project that will be running on a Citrix Presentation Server. I am developing the software using Visual DataFlex v11.0 on Windows XP Pro. The software works correctly on my development box. However, when I installed it and ran it on the Citrix server, I got the following error:

GDTwain
SelectImageSource: Unable to open Source Manager.
RC: TWRC_SUCCESS
CC: TWCC_SUCCESS
State: 1

The code that produces this error is:

Get ApplicationWindowHandle To hWnd
Get ComTwainSelectSource hWnd To iResult


I have also tried it with the HTML examples and, this actually did work when remotely accessing the Citrix box. This would seem to indicate that the Citrix box is correctly configured for remote imaging. I can't see that I am doing anything differently in my application.

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks
Anthony

Hi,

What is the returned value of the TwainIsAvailable() method ?

Hi Loïc,

Zero, zip, zilch (0).

Does that help?

Incidentally, I get the same error message as above when I run the Delphi & VB Twain examples. So, I am guessing that the problem is not with my app. If that is the case, then it is either the Citrix server configuration or a bug in the control on a Citrix platform. Of course, it could also be an incompatibility within Visual DataFlex that is also shared with Delphi & VB ...

Thanks,
Anthony

Hum.. This means that TWAIN is not available into your citrix computer.

Please:
- Download the last edition: https://www.gdpicture.com
- Add this line as the first line of your code: Imaging1.TwainLogStart("c:\twainlog.txt")
- Add this line as the last of your code: Imaging1.TwainLogStop()

Now, give me the content of the log file to see what is wrong.


Best regards,

Hi Loïc,

I only downloaded the eval a day or so back, so am I right in assuming that it is the latest?

I have added the logging in and, this is what I got ...

Thanks, Anthony

Hi Loïc,

Looks like the DLL needs to be copied into the current user's Windows folder. I have done that and, lo & behold, the scanner is being detected.

Now, I have a new problem ...

But I will take a closer look at that tomorrow.

Thanks for all of your help.

Hi,

Ok I understand.


gdtwain.dll needs to be linked to the TWAIN_32.DLL library wich is include into the Windows directory.

To retrieve the Window directory gdtwain use the GetWindowsDirectory() function: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... S.85).aspx

However, this function returns C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\WINDOWS\ on your citrix server, instead C:\WINDOWS\. Maybe it is a Citrix behaviour ?

If this folder really exists, you can try to copy the TWAIN_32.DLL on it.

Best regards,

Loïc

Hi Loïc,

Thanks for all of your help. It seems to be working correctly now that I have put the DLL in each user's home Windows folder.

The only real issue that I have at the moment is one of performance. It is very slow returning the scanned image to the server. Unfortunately, that is probably not something you can help me with. I am probably going to have to see about getting a faster link.

Thanks again,
Anthony
