Hi all, do you have suggestions about how to know if a external DB is online?
I'm using this simple script: <cfsetting requesttimeout="500"> <cftransaction action="begin"> <cftry> <cfquery name="blabla" datasource="#app.DSN#"> select TOP 1 field from externalDB where 1=1 </cfquery> <cfcatch type="any"> Error - DB offline </cfcatch> </cftry> </cftransaction> Cheers MD ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:230573 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
