Default VFP form hangs entire EXE - 09-15-2003 , 08:33 PM






Hello

We are having a peculiar problem with a VFP 7.0 SP1 executable that resides
on a W2K network and is accessed by that as well as Citrix.

I have one form in particular that seems to be causing problems. As nearly
was I can figure, a remote Citrix user is accessing one particular form and
improperly terminating her session (or being disconnected by her ISP). In
other cases, the W2K server where the app and tables reside would
automatically kill the session and all processes after 30 minutes of
inactivity. Instead, it remains active, after which anyone trying to access
the form has their process freeze as well. The processes refuse to be killed
(see helpdesk message below) so the only way out is to restart the server.
Others using this EXE have no problem until they try to access this one
form. Each time they get stuck, they end up with another instance of the
process under their username. The form is actually a formset, called with DO
FORM custserv.

Since it seems to be tied to this one VFP form - it led me to believe that
I should clear the "always on top" property or something else that would
force this session to be so persistent.

The app in question is a single EXE, namely ProjectTracking.exe

Any help would be appreciated.

Message from helpdesk:

What I know:

-Users with stuck processes are logged off

-It will not let me kill the stuck porcesses (Access denied)

-I tried using the "kill -f" feature to force the kill process, to no avail
