AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

We recently upgraded from 7.0.4 to 7.0.7sr1a (incrementally applied each interim update). Now, the dataport tool (using the latest) fails to successfully export the orders via the Custom XML option. We select Custom, orders, set a date range (last day or so) and when we hit the export button we get an error about being unable to convert a boolean to a byte.

I actually tried rolling back to 7.0.7 api/client as well as the 7.0.6 api/client with no success.

Any ideas?

Some further details:

The actual error message:
Exception Message: Object of type 'System.Boolean' cannot be converted to type 'System.Byte'.
at CommerceBuilder.DataClient.Api.ACRequestHandler.ProcessRequest(String requestXml) at
CommerceBuilder.DataClient.Api.AuthenticationHandler.System.Web.IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)

The error as it appears in the Admin error log:
7/25/2011 5:52:52 PM Error Object of type 'System.Boolean' cannot be converted to type 'System.Byte'. Object of type 'System.Boolean' cannot be converted to type 'System.Byte'.

I *can* use the custom xml export of everything *but* the orders. Also, I can use the "download store data" function for everything other than the orders object.

I did some debug/tinkering, and the following is the xml blob/request being sent...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ACCustomizedOrderRequest xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

<ChunkSize>50</ChunkSize>
<IsUPSWSRequest>false</IsUPSWSRequest>
<IsCSVRequst>false</IsCSVRequst>
<DownloadCCData>false</DownloadCCData>
</ACCustomizedOrderRequest>

This was confirmed as a bug by AC and they are issuing an updated version of the dataport client/libs to deal with it..

Same Issue, Is there any idea of a fix release date ?

They fixed it the next day and issued me a drop. If it's not in the current (I'm not able to check the version right now), you should contact support, reference this ticket, and they should be able to get you the updated version.

Sorry about this! We forgot to update the forums after a new Dataport build was uploaded.

Here is the most recent version -

ftp://ftp.ablecommerce.com/dataport/bet ... .7.254.zip (dated 7/28/2011)

Thanks

ORIGINAL NOTE (RESOLVED)

I have just installed the build from the new link, but for some reason, it still gives an error when I attempt to do a custom order xml export. This is the error.
