We are getting this error from .5 to 3 times daily and have to
backup/restore the database.
This started when we began using a 802.11b Cisco Aironet RF network
with 11 access points
and 4 PCs with RF cards in cranes. The server is IBOpen 6.0.2.0 and
the client is using
Delphi6 with BDEv5.11. All PCs are Win2000: one crane has no SP, 3
are SP3, and the
server is SP2.
Can you answer the following:
1. How/when does the interbase engine decide to declare a connection
broken?
Is it solely based on the loss of an associated TCP socket
connection, or does it also
consider delay over an open socket?
2. How does the database server handle abnormal disconnects?
Does it clean up open transactions?
Thank you for your help.
