CAUSE

This issue occurs if the following conditions are true:

The HREF path in the .osd file contains a space.
The ?Customer= element in the .osd file does not contain the question mark (?) or the equal sign (=) characters.
The SoftGrid Client timed out.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, use one or more of the following methods, as appropriate for your situation.

Method 1: Edit the HREF path in the .osd file

The HREF attribute of the CODEBASE element of the .osd file may contain a space. In this case, edit the .osd file by using a text editor such as Notepad to replace the space with %20.

For example, find the following text in the .osd file:

HREF="rtsp://%SFT_SOFTGRIDSERVER%:554/Softricity SFTs/DefaultApp.sft"

Replace this text with the following text:

HREF="rtsp://%SFT_SOFTGRIDSERVER%:554/Softricity%20SFTs/DefaultApp.sft"

Method 2: Edit the ?Customer= element in the .osd file

The ?Customer= element that is specified in the HREF attribute of the CODEBASE element of the .osd file may not contain the question mark (?) or the equal sign (=) characters. In this case, edit the .osd file by using a text editor such as Notepad to correct the syntax.

For example, find the following text in the .osd file:

HREF="rtsp://%SFT_SOFTGRIDSERVER%:554/DefaultApp.sftCustomerAnonymous"

Replace this text with the following text:

HREF="rtsp://%SFT_SOFTGRIDSERVER%:554//DefaultApp.sft?Customer=Anonymous"

Method 3: Modify the time-out interval value

By default, the SoftGrid Client ReadTimeout registry value is configured to be 20 seconds. You may have to increase this value.

Note The time-out interval should not exceed 30 seconds.

To modify the value, follow these steps.

Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.

Click Start, click Run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
Expand the following registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Softricity\SoftGrid Client\CurrentVersion\Network
Right-click ReadTimeout, and then click Modify.
For Base, select Decimal.
For Value data, type the number of seconds that you want, and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.

Note You must restart the SoftGrid Client service for this change to take effect.
