Access Denied on DASSIDirect

Mainly due to the way QuickOPC "Classic" is written (originally C++ code, but then converted to managed C++), it indeed does behave differently at times.

Do you know the CLSID of the server? The problem might be "just" in converting the ProgID (""ArchestrA.DASSIDirect.3") to the CLSID (which is done, usually, using the OPCEnum service on the remote computer). If you can find out the CLSID (e.g. from browsing), try using it in place of the ProgID. It still needs to be a string, but the string should contain the CLSID in "registry format", i.e. between '{' and '}'.

It's a made up IP as it's on a customer system. The OPC Server is on a remote machine.

Just struggling to understand why all the other software works, but the QuickOPC library fails. Would like to understand if there is a way to setup the QuickOPC client so that it authenticates in the same as everything else.

Hello,

does 192.1.1.1 refer to the same machine where you run the client application, or is it a different computer?

Thank you

Hi,

I have been trying to subscribe to tags on an OPC Server without any success, all avenues return "Access Denied" error as per the XML attachment. I've adapted the .NET Console samples "XmlLogger" as below and tried ALL 9 combinations of the 3 ClientParameters that affect security. I have another application written with a different library which can read the tag as can Matrikon Explorer and OPC Expert. Is there another setting in QuickOPC that I can try? Using version 5.54.1085.1.
static void Main()
        {
            EasyDAClient.SharedParameters.ClientParameters.TurnOffActivationSecurity = true;
            EasyDAClient.SharedParameters.ClientParameters.TurnOffCallSecurity = true;
            EasyDAClient.SharedParameters.ClientParameters.UseCustomSecurity = false;
 
 
            Console.WriteLine("Starting up...");
            var xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(EasyDAItemChangedEventArgs));
            var xmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create("OpcData.xml", new XmlWriterSettings
                                        {
                                            Indent = true,
                                            CloseOutput = true
                                        });
            // The root element can have any name you need, but the name below also allows reading the log back as .NET array
            xmlWriter.WriteStartElement("ArrayOfEasyDAItemChangedEventArgs");
 
            Console.WriteLine("Logging for 10 seconds...");
 
            int handle = EasyDAClient.SharedInstance.SubscribeItem("192.1.1.1", "ArchestrA.DASSIDirect.3",
                "Topics.Node1.dbl", 1000,
               (_, eventArgs) =>
                   {
                       Debug.Assert(eventArgs != null);
                       xmlSerializer.Serialize(xmlWriter, eventArgs);
                   });
            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10 * 1000);
 
            Console.WriteLine("Shutting down...");
            EasyDAClient.SharedInstance.UnsubscribeItem(handle);
            xmlWriter.WriteEndElement();    // not really necessary - XmlWriter would write the end tag for us anyway
            xmlWriter.Close();
 
            Console.WriteLine("Finished.");
        }
