Teststand database RI problem against Sybase ASA 8.0 database

Question

When running our Teststand application against the SyBase Adaptive Server Anywhere 8.0.1 database,
test results are saved to the parent table UUT_RESULT, but then I get the following Run-Time Error dialog:
Details:
An exception occurred calling 'LogResults' in 'ITSDBLog' of 'DBLog 1.0 Type Library'
An error occurred executing a statement.
Schema: Adaptive Server Anywhere 8.0.
Statement: STEP_RESULT.
Error in rowIntegrity constraint violation: No primary key value for foreign key 'UUT_RESULT_FK' in table 'STEP_RESULT'
Source: TSDBLog
-2147467259; User-defined error code.
Location:
Step 'Log Results to Database' of sequence 'Log To Database' in 'Database.seq'
(code -2147467259 => 80004005 hex)

Olafjell -
Which schema are you using, recordset(SELECT) or command(INSERT), and are you using and ODBC driver or a specific OLE-DB provider?
If you are using a select statement then when the UUT record is created, the database logger tries to find out what the value was so that it can write that value for the foreign key for the steps. Make sure that the statements in the schema are using a server side cursor for your tables so that if the database ODBC driver or provider that you are using can retrieve the key value from the database right after it creates the UUT record. If you are using server side cursors and this problem still occurs, it may be that the database ODBC driver or provider does not support getting the key value after the record is cre
ated.
Your only option might be to use command(INSERT) schema that generates key values in someway. The built in support is using an generated GUID value.
Also with some work, if supported, you could use stored procedures to generate the key.
