Getting <file> in use by <user> on Winsock S/E 121
DRAFT COPY - Currently under review and edit.
INTRODUCTION:
=============
If a user abnormally terminates a connection with a server while using
Winsock (i.e. Turns off machine) this will cause a record/user lock
and the user will not be able to re-connect to the database.
PROGRESS ERROR NUMBER: ERROR TEXT: TYPE:
====================== ================================== =========
121 <file> in use by <user> on WINSOCK
POSSIBLE CAUSE OF ERROR:
========================
Abnormal termination of the client such as turning off machine, or
shutting down the Winsock TCP/IP stack.
CORRECTIVE MEASURES:
====================
There are several options available as corrective measures. First,
informing users not to abnormally terminate their connections with
the server. Second, if this has occurred, shuuting down and bringing
back up the server will reset the database. Third, if you are using
the 7.3B NT Server, you can add a timeout entry to the progress.ini
file for the NT server under the [startup] heading in the form of:
ClientTimeOut=n
Where n is the numnber of inactive minutes for a client to be
automatically disconnected from the database.
