GOAL:
How to prevent more than one Progress GUI session to run concurrently on windows?
GOAL:
What does parameter -wss do?
GOAL:
How to prevent a user from opening more than once session at the time
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows
Progress 9.x
FIX:
Use the Windows Single Session (-wss) Client Session Parameter to limit a user to running only one Progress client session at a time.
This parameter applies only to a Windows GUI client. If an existing Progress session is running on the machine when -wss is specified, the new session terminates and the windows of the existing session are brought forward to alert the user.
To avoid unnecessary processing of other parameters, use the -wss parameter first on the command line.
If more than one Progress application is installed on a user's machine, do not use the -wss parameter else it will prevent a user from running two or more applications at the same time.
In addition, the -wss parameter does not recognize versions of Progress prior to Version 9.0.
