ERROR [00000] [QODBC] QB Begin Session Failed. Error = 80040414 |

I am using Quick Books Premier 2006 Accountant USA Edition with QODBC Ver: 9.00.00.253.
The program used to work well so far but now I get following error:
ERROR [00000] [QODBC] QB Begin Session Failed. Error = 80040414, A modal dialog box is showing in the QuickBooks user interface. Your application cannot access QuickBooks until the user dismisses the dialog box.
I don't see any dialog box (alert) open for the QB interface.
The QODBC mesasge has following entry:
Begin Session Failed. S0000 00000 [QODBC] QB Begin Session Failed. Error = 80040414, A modal dialog box is showing in the QuickBooks user interface. Your application cannot access QuickBooks until the user dismisses the dialog box. Begin Session errors can be caused when running ASP or other system service and not setting the "Advanced" button option of either "Use DCOM Servers" or "Remote Connector"
We have a desktop driver installed on the server with Windows Server 2003 R2.
What is happening please?
Thank you, Piyush |

The problem here is that the QuickBooks company file is being opened in both modal and non-modal modes at the same time, so if for example someone opens an invoice and your script then tries to create invoices, then you will get a "Error = 80040414, A modal dialog box is showing in the QuickBooks user interface...." which has nothing to do with alerts or pop-up messages. QuickBooks is simply saying that a modal connection is active for this part of QuickBooks and you need to wait.
Normally the other user would eventually close the Invoice modal screen allowing your script retries to be successful.
BTW: I believe that Intuit have made some errors in making a number of user interface (UI) operations in QuickBooks "modal" to Integrated Applications such as QODBC. |
