Check the Windows Temp driectory. Check at the time when you perform certain 
operation if there is a temp file that gets created that keeps 
growing indefinitely to a point it starts eating out most of your disk space.

If you notice this, yes we are facing a similar problem and I am still in the 
process of troubleshooting it. For us it turns out that there are some fields 
that have somehow got corrupted in their definitions on the forms that result 
in this problem.

Using a debug version of the arserverd process, I am in the process of finding 
which fields are causing this problem and eliminating it by changing the 
properties of the field and saving it.

Subject: Server Hangs

We've begun having a strange problem.  Our server has begun to hang making 
searching or creating records on most forms impossible.  It will still allow 
you to log in and work with some of our smaller forms (6 or so fields), but it 
makes our Trouble Report form hang. 

The error message you get after a few minutes states: "ARERR [94] Timeout 
during database query -- consider using more specific search criteria to narrow 
the results, and retry the operation :"

You have to either restart the services or totally reboot the server to 
recover.  



Below I've listed a couple of symptoms that seem odd to me.


1.    You can search for a specific ticket number and get the results just 
fine, but if you search something that will return multiple results it hangs.


2.    As stated above, searching for multiple results causes it to hang, but it 
will populate tables with multiple results with no problems and will allow you 
to refresh them with no issues at all.



Windows Server 2003
MS SQL 2000 SP3
Windows XP Pro Clients with WUT 7.0.01 P5 (some users may still have older 
versions)

Has anyone seen anything like this before?
