What was given was instructions on how to mimic the same activity in a DOS window that you would normally do with Windows Task Manager. If you are shaky about using a DOS window, then just use Task Manager as you normally would.

The database is located on G drive and each computer has RBASE on the
local C drive.  Which drive will I execute this code on?

Forgive me but it has been so long since I have used the DOS window, I
even need to know how to change to another drive.



Jim



As you can see, I am not a programmer.

At each workstation:    Start> Run>  type 'cmd'   when the dos  window
opens type 'Taskkill /f /im RBG76.exe'         If you are using 76
Extended:    'taskkill /f /im RBG76EE.exe'    etc....



I actually had a temp command that I had on the desktop that had this
code till I found the issue.   I had the users use it just to make sure.
It is much easier than shutting down a server.









Good Luck and I hope this works.







Paul





Also if this happens to be a Windows Server you can use RBase Admin to
see the connection and shut it down.  It also works in Linux to shut
down users also.

I AM USING 7.6.  I THINK PART OF THE PROBLEM IS THIS:

WHEN WE RECENTLY ADDED 7.6 TO A NEW USER, THE INSTALL HAD A PROBLEM.

THOUGH WE GOT THE PROBLEM FIXED AND 7.6 IS ON THE COMPUTER, I HAVE NOT
BEEN ABLE TO PACK MY DB BECAUSE THE SERVER CONTINUES TO "SEE" AN OPEN
CONNECTION THOUGH THERE IS NONE.  I WILL HAVE TO MAKE A TRIP TO THE
OFFICE AND SHUT THE SERVER DOWN TO CLEAR THE CONNECTIONS. ALL THE
SUGGESTIONS I HAVE RECEIVED SEEM TO POINT TO THAT AS BEING THE ONLY
SOLUTION.

I THINK NOW MY DB IS JUST SLOWING DOWN AND NEEDS PACKING.  THANKS FOR
THE INPUT.

I have currently 4136 images stored in a table that is about 130 mb.
They are in a VARBIT column.



You can use the unload command and see what size the lob file is to get
a pretty accurate size.



I am using V8 turbo.

I am running into a problem with a table that contains many BLOBs.  Is
there a size limit on how many total bytes in a table?  I am locking up
each time I try to insert more BLOB's.



I can tell how many rows are in this table.  Is there a way to tell the
Byte size of a table?



Jim



No error message is coming up.  The database just locks up.
