It's frustrating as hell for me. The client doesn't understand that there is nothing I can do programming wise to cause corruption problems.
The battery in his UPS which protects the NAS, router and switches died a few months ago and he still hasn't replaced it. That alone could be causing the corruption issues. I've tried over and over to get him to replace it or just pick up a cheap one at Staples, with no success. How do I convince someone to believe me that it's important? I feel like I'm screaming in the wilderness. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mike Copeland <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: Sent: Monday, April 16, 2012 7:10 PM Subject: Re: is there another way to determine who has a database open?

I'm using FPDOS 2.5 and VFP 9 on a mix of WINXP and WIN 7 PRO systems...45 systems total. No problem with index corruption. The server is running CentOS (Samba) and it is easy to see who has which DBF files open with Webmin (although you can't see who is using which record.) I would suspect you have network hardware issues...either a bad NIC or cable problems....that is causing your index corruption, not a mix of VFP and FPWIN (assuming the data engine for FPW and FPDOS are the same.)

From: Michael Madigan<[email protected]> To: [email protected] Date: 4/16/2012 4:06 PM We have been using a ReadyNAS for our main database server. It has worked flawlessly for several years now. Lately we've been getting corruption errors which I'm pretty sure is due to a mix of VFP on 64-bit Win 7 and FPW 2.5. We are almost ready to go completely VFP on[excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
