  • 1.  Why HTTP Header Decorator not work properly

    Posted Feb 11, 2019 10:36 PM

    Hi,

     

    Why the x-wily-info in header is empty when I enable CEM Integration on .NET Agent 10.7.0.45? Meanwhile, backend web service call are agent also insert x-wily-info into the http header or insert other to correlate transaction between different application server?

     

    Windows 2012 and IIS 8.5 .NET Framework 2.0 & 4.0

     

    Best Regards,

    Sam

    I vaguely recall that it worked for ASPX but not ASP. I tried to find this without success. It should worked if configured correctly. Turning on DEBUG on Agent may help. 

     

    I created these steps awhile back -- https://comm.support.ca.com/kb/an-approach-to-resolve-apm-cem-introscope-integration-to-generate-a-transaction-trace/kb000019743

    Failing this, please open a case. 

    Why not getting a trace 

    APMCM and Introscope problem resolution triage integration (transaction traces) works for non-Web Service transactions. It does not work for

    Web Service transactions when APMCM is matching on XML elements in the SOAP body. When removing the XML matching criteria in the APMCM Web Service business transactions and matching only on the URL, the integration works again- APMCM is able to trigger transaction traces on the agent successfully.

    APM does not support XML in the transaction tracing integration due to the high overhead inherent with parsing XML. It is not on the roadmap to support XML tracing. What is on the roadmap is generic/improved webservices/XML support consisting of generic matching of text inside the request body.

    Typically, most users do XML matching in APMCM using custom http plugins.

    I try to downgrade the agent version to 10.5.1.6 then it's worked with same configuration. Attach the screenshot for you reference. Is it bug for 10.7.x.x?

    Dear Sam:

       You mention that you were using .Net Agent 10.7.0..45 . That is APM 10.7 GA. There are various HF after that point that fix issues. 

    . I see some specifically for Agents and one for .Net agents. . Nothing for this issue.

    Try with at least .Net agent SP2 on support.ca.com and see if that help.

    Dear Hallett, 

     

    I have tested last version of CA APM but same. So, Thank you for your answer. I'll follow support case for further debug.

     

    Thanks,

    Sam
