MSDTC - Communication with the underlying transaction manager has failed (Firewall open, MSDTC netwo
- by SocialAddict
I'm having problems with my ASP.NET web forms system.
It worked on our test server but now we are putting it live one of the servers is within a DMZ and the SQL server is outside of that (on our network still though - although a different subnet)
I have open up the firewall completely between these two boxes to see if that was the issue and it still gives the error message "Communication with the underlying transaction manager has failed" whenever we try and use the "TransactionScope". We can access the data for retrieval it's just transactions that break it.
We have also used msdtc ping to test the connection and with the amendments on the firewall that pings successfully, but the same error occurs!
How do i resolve this error?
Any help would be great as we have a system to go live today. Panic :)
