Status: Verified

SYMPTOM(s):

Server's received count <n> does not equal client(<n>)'s send count <n>. (1055)

Total user count in activity screen of promon differs from total users connected thru servers screen in R&D

Port Scanning being done against ports Progress Database Brokers are listening on.

Progress 9.1D09 is where the problem occurs.

Remote users cannot connect to a remote server.

User count associated with a server is incrementing even though a user is not connected to the server process.

User count is above maximum # of users (-Ma) for a server.

Progress ports being scanned by a port scanner.

No pending users in promon -> R&D -> Status -> Server detail screen

Prior to Progress 9.1D09, the user count would not get incremented when scanned by the port scanner.

Sudden degradation of performance on database server

Users unable to connect to database

No servers are available. Try again later. (1154)

Error reading socket=<n> ret=<n> errno=<n>. (795)

Error reading socket=220 ret=-1 errno=10055. (795)

FACT(s) (Environment):

OpenEdge 10.x
Progress 9.1D
Progress 9.1D 64-bit
Progress 9.1x
All Supported Operating Systems

CAUSE:

We were incorrectly incrementing the user count when a port scanner was used to scan our ports.

CAUSE:

Bug# OE00113830

FIX:

Upgrade to 9.1E02 or later.
Upgrade to 10.0B02 or later.
Upgrade to 10.1A.

Workaround:
If an upgrade is not possible at the current time, then ensure that the port scanning software application excludes all ports used by Progress.
