I’ve seen this happen 1 time on a v17.0 HF1 4D Server application that has been running for several months now. One day I got a call from the client that people could no longer connect to 4D Server. Existing users were fine, just nobody new could connect. I checked the server and found the button had changed from “Reject New Connections” to “Accept New Connections”. Nobody clicked the button. I clicked the button to switch it back to allow connections, but it did nothing. I tried to quit 4D Server and do a restart and it would no quit. I finally had to End Task to restart 4D Server. Then users were able to connect again. So yes, this is a real issue and not just a fluke you are experiencing. I am assuming you are using the new network layer, right? My application is and I’m guessing it’s another bug/issue related to this.
