Thought I'd continue posting my experiments / problems as they may be useful to others as well as hoping to find someone to shed some light on whats actually happening.
I've got Filemaker running on the same XP box with a Rev query app. I've also got a separate Mac on OSX running the same Rev app. The Rev app is very simple, it consists of a button and two fields. The button script is on mouseup put "http://10.0.0.14:68/FMPro?-DB=requests.fp5&-Format=qeds/results.htm&Status= Current&-Find" into tURL put URL tURL into fld "tRep" put the result&cr into fld "tError" put seconds()&cr after fld "tError" end mouseup When I use the Rev app on the Mac it works great. The expected results are returned time and time again - no problem. When I use the same code on the XP box it works the first time then seems to get 'clogged'. The error returned from the result is "error timeout" or if I click twice quickly then "error Previous request not completed" (this is when clicked within the SocketTimeoutInterval and is what I'd expect). When this happens the Mac app still works fine, which seems to point to FileMaker being OK. OK, now what happens if I put the Filemaker database on the Mac. Changing the IP address in the URL line to the IP address of the Mac results in the following... The Mac app (now on the same box as the Filemaker database) works great - everytime. The XP app (now looking at the FM database across the network) also works - everytime. So, to summarise... FM on Mac FM on XP Rev on Mac OK OK Rev on XP OK BROKEN So three out of the four scenarios work OK, the fourth, which is the combination I need (I'm sure this must be somebody's law, murphy's, sods...) is the one that doesn't work. Any ideas why ? Thanks - and apologies for the long post.
