Re: CF 7 ODBC server went stupid
Thanks guys! That will keep me from having to reboot the server at least (I hope). Interestingly enough it hasn't happened again since I sent out the email. --Ben On 10/25/2011 8:48 PM, .jonah wrote: If the ODBC service won't stop gracefully, you can kill the swstrtr.exe process via task manager.

CF 7 ODBC server went stupid
Hi, I host a number of sites, many of which use ODBC entries mainly to MS Access. In the last 30 hours ODBC connections stopped working. I've never even seen this happen before and was unable to gracefully stop the CF ODBC client/server services. Had to reboot the server to clear it out. Anyone seen this before, and/or even know which services I can kill and restart so I don't have to reboot the server?

Re: CF 7 ODBC server went stupid
If the ODBC service won't stop gracefully, you can kill the swstrtr.exe process via task manager. Depending on how you have your service recovery configured, it may automatically restart or you may have to go into services and restart it.
