The operation is not valid for the state of the transaction.

Posted on by Matt Reamy

I keep getting this message: The operation is not valid for the state of the transaction.

It doesn't happen consistently.  I'm importing product data from an old Database to GP 2010.  Each time I run the app, this message appears, but not always in the same place or the same number of times.

I did a web search and saw that it might be the timeout, but I've added:

 

 

<

 

system.transactions><machineSettings maxTimeout="0:00:00"/></system.transactions>

to my .NET machine config as suggested in the results, but it didn't make a difference.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    You must have MSDTC configured on both the server and desktop and that the desktop should also be set to accept incoming transactions and a user who has sql server priveleges...I used a service account that has domain admin priveleges to be on the safe side.  As soon as I properly configured the MSDTC on the client, it started to work as expected.
