The old database I used to use, would require this when for some
reason witango would burp or lost connection. It was very
frustrating, but I never found a way to just stop that one thread
from the witango side. It should be noted, that other dbs don't
require this. Both MS SQL 2000 and MySQL don't have this problem. I
can reboot mysql, and leave witango alone, and it will reconnect.
This led me to realize, it is more of an issue with the ODBC driver/
db from the vendor. I experimented with other code and found this to
be the case, outside of witango.
What database do you use?

Does anyone know if it is possible to kill open database
connections without restarting the witango server process? We've
had some cases lately where a connection will fail somewhere
between the witango server and the database server. Everything but
witango recognizes that the session is dead and ditches it. Rather
than starting a new session, witango just keeps returning "113
Unable to communicate with the specified data source. The existing
connection was lost." on the old session until the datasource
timeout kicks in.
The problem is that the some other sessions are often fine, so I
hate to kill off everything if I can tell that there are specific
dead sessions.
