We've been experiencing some troublesome errors with our Witango Applications lately. Most of them are along the lines of users seeing other users found sets and submitting records with the incorrect user information.
Our setup is: - Witango 5.0.1 server on an OS X 10.3.9 box - FilemakerPro 5.5 server on an OS X 10.4.1 box When a user logs into any of our Witango apps our Login.taf is called which queries a Filemaker file containing all our usernames and passwords. Once the correct username and password is found Login.taf creates an array containing the user's login information along with other information about the user such as their school number and access level (e.g. school, technician, admin). Login.taf then branches back to the application that called it. Each link in our tafs contain the <@userReferenceAgrument> and most searches and submits are preform with their school number automatically filled in for them. Despite this we continue to receive calls every once in a while about a user logging in as one school but them submitting their record as if they were at another school. Upon talking to the other school we find out that both schools were submitting records at nearly the exact same time. There have also been times, and I've seen this myself, where one user will end up with the found set of another user, but when going back to the home page are still logged in with the correct school number and can continue on normally. We are completely stumped with this problem. It's not a consistent problem which makes trouble shooting difficult. We're not even sure if this is a Witango issue or a problem FilemakerPro. One time during a demonstration of our FilemakerPro interface, with 20 users all logged in a the same time, users started seeing the found sets of other users. A month later, however, with the same scenario, no problems were encountered. The same custom login system is used for the Filemaker interface minus the Login.taf. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Thanks in advance, Matthew. ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf
