I am using remote FMSA8 as data source via ODBC for 6 months. Have had
problems, not with Witango hanging, but that the FMSA does not
re-establish ODBC upon a reboot of the FMSA server hardware. FMSA says
ODBC is enabled but no connections can be made from any ODBC enabled PC
or app. Usually takes a second boot of FMSA application to re-establish
ODBC. Witango apps come back online after FMSA reboot without having to
reboot the local IIS server.
Moving to FMSA9 this week.

Shannon,
There are know issues with xODBC and Filemaker 7-9 I am not sure if they
extend to JDBC but there are related to the FMP plug in in not Witango
as I can reproduce them with any ODBC connection to FMP.
I have been working for 1 year with FMI to resolve these.
We are close.
They are
Out of memory errors which cause the plug in stop responding at all (
these seems resolved with 9)
Failure to close connections properly when shutting down the DB

We use JDBC with Filemaker and OCI with Oracle. We're not having
trouble with anything but Witango connections now. I'm finding it
harder to believe that all of the driver creators got it wrong and
Witango got it right...

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.
