Hi Mark,
There are many approaches to resolve ARERR-102 and ARERR-93 For ARERR-102: ARERR 102 is an error that happens when a field that is used in 'Advanced' workflow to reference a form or server name or 'Advanced' table fields to reference a form or server name is empty. This typically happens when there is missing data in containers that have information about servers or forms, and a set field operation that finds no data set fields to null. It also could happen if you have changed a form name and the data containing form names may have not been edited to reflect the renamed form. For ARERR-93: IF development cache mode is off and you do perform admin operations (in admin tool) its not very uncommon that operations time out - especially if you have users working on the system at the same time. In development mode, the admin thread for API calls does not copy the cache but locks incoming threads out of the existing cache and waits for threads currently using the cache to complete their operations before performing changes. The thread will not release the cache until the end of the API call. No time is spent copying the cache so operations have a smaller memory footprint and are performed faster than in production mode. Development mode is intended for servers whose main purpose is application development. It is unsuitable for servers with a large number of application users in a production environment because the operations of those users will be blocked when forms and workflow are changed, especially when many structures are changed, such as when importing an application." The AR System Server manages the database connections. we can optimize the number of threads at AR System level to optimize the number of database connections opened by the AR System server.(Increasing no of threads will help to resolve error 93) Apart from above, please check if there are any CMDB jobs running on server which keeps server busy.

Usually runs slow and now I cannot log on. Looking in the arerror.log I can see a series of errors like the ones below. Is this an indication of an AR Server issue, database issue, or something else.
