Cannot set the specified Registry parameter for the Synchronizer "Ron Fraser" <rfraser[ at ]cchse.org> 12.09.2006 16:28:55 Hello, Does ANYONE have a clue what this error is about. I am trying to initiate an internet synch using an asp script on a web server that tells a replica on that server to synch back to a "URL'd" location. I can do this on a win2k server running ADO Version: 2.7 and DAO Version: 3.6 using JRO. When I try the same script on a server running win2k or win2k3 with ADO version 2.8 I cannot complete the script without getting the following error: Cannot set the specified Registry parameter for the Synchronizer I have tried implementing the synch using DAO rather than JRO, but I get the identical error! jro: Rep.Synchronize strServerReplicaURL, 3, 3 dao: dbSource.Synchronize strServerReplicaURL, 16 Bigpost works without problem on all platforms in writing back to the drop box. Any ideas much appreciated.... Regards, Ron.

Re: Cannot set the specified Registry parameter for the Synchronizer "Ron Fraser" <rfraser[ at ]cchse.org> 13.09.2006 13:08:17 Hello David, Thanks for getting back about this. The user in question will be in all cases the IUSR_SERVER account. That user probably does not have add/edit permissions on the registry keys used by Jet replication! Do you kown which keys should be touched and in what way? Regards, Ron. "David W.

Do you kown which keys > should be touched and in what way? No, I don't, but if the replication script is run by the IUSR_SERVER account and the error you are getting is a registry-related issue, then you have to give that user appropriate permissions on the replication manager registry keys. I don't know what the appropriate permissions are and can't tell you which keys are involved. But giving full control to the IUSR_SERVER account is the first thing you need to try. -- David W.

What method are you using for this? TSI Synchronizer? JRO? DAO? My observation is that the JRO error messages are more removed from the real error causes than the corresponding DAO error messages (if there are any -- DAO doesn't include all the functionality that's in JRO; you need the TSI Synchronizer + DAO to match (and exceed) the functionality of JRO). -- David W.
