[Arsperl-users] ars_GetListEntry returns without data

[Henrik J. <hen...@ti...>]

We are moving and upgrading our AR-server from 4.5.2 on Solaris 8 to 
6.3.0 on
Windows Server 2003 and have problem with the function ars_GetListEntry.
I'm running the perlprogram on Solaris 9, with arsperl-1.84.
I have built arsperl-1.84 against ars-api 6.3 with patch 13.
There is no problem to run the updated perlprogram, against the old 
AR-server.

An extract from the code:
$ctrl = ars_Login($ars_server, $arsusername, $password);
..
$qual = ars_LoadQualifier($ctrl, $schema, "(1 = 1)");
if (! defined($qual)) {
    &ERROR("read_ars_users: Error in usage of ars_LoadQualifier, ARS 
message: $ars_errstr.");
}
# Retrieve all of the entry-id's for the schema.
%entries = ars_GetListEntry($ctrl, $schema, $qual, 0, []);
if (scalar %entries eq 0) {
    &ERROR("read_ars_users: No entries from ars_GetListEntry, ARS 
message: $ars_errstr.");
}

The %entries-hash are empty and $ars_errstr are empty.

I've tested the other usages of arsperl, in the program, and found no 
problem.
Result    Tested functions
OK        ars_Login($ars_server, $arsusername, $password);
OK        ars_GetFieldByName($ctrl, $schema, $fids{$fid});
OK        ars_LoadQualifier($ctrl, $schema, "(1 = 1)");
No data   ars_GetListEntry($ctrl, $schema, $qual, 0, []);
OK        ars_GetEntry($ctrl, $schema, $entry_id)) ||
OK        ars_CreateEntry($ctrl, $schema,
OK        ars_SetEntry($ctrl, $schema, $l[8], $ars_read_time,
OK        ars_DeleteEntry($ctrl, $schema, $l[8]) < 1)

I've check the networktraffic between client and server and found these 
packages,
when I run ars_GetListEntry, on the client. Only three packets!
This is from snoop on the client:
  1   0.00000 client -> server RPC C XID=1137346846 PROG=390620 (?) 
VERS=11 PROC=5
  2   0.06305 server -> client RPC R (#1) XID=1137346846 Success
  3   0.09627 client -> server TCP D=1079 S=32944 Ack=576013281

Here is the snoop-log, between a client and the old server (317 packets):
