Re: 4D Default Folder Structure
Jorg, I don’t think Jody even knows how to be snarky (my description for a RTFM answer) and why not just get him to clarify which Manual. A simple “Do you know which manual and section it is described in, or is it something else like a tech note?” You will either get a useful answer, my experience with Jody is you will, or you will get nothing and be no worse off than you were, looking for something where you don’t even know if it exists.

Re: Need Help! - Customer upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 Pro. 4D v13.6 Built Server Won't Run
We run v13.5 on Win 10 on just not on the Server End. If you are running a 4D Server on Win 10 as opposed to Win Server, I would check that there was Windows where you had to open up ports in the Win Fire Wall and also allow for Code Execution from a separate file.

Re: Multiple instances of 4D Client
Don’t tell me Windows 10 for 4Dv16.2 has broken this but it is incredibly easy and we have been doing this with up to 4 Servers since v6 all the way to v13, so I would be very surprised if this ability was changed by Window or 4D. Simply go find your 4D Installation, in my case 4D v13.3 in Program Files (x86). Then make as many copies of that 4D folder as you need, in your case 1 and in my case 4. They will be named 4D v13.3 - Copy, Copy(2), etc. by windows when you create them in Program Files. Then simply create a shortcut to each 4D.exe and put them on the desktop. If you have 4 installed copies of 4D you will have 4 Shorcuts to 4 different 4D.exe files and can connect to up to 4 different Servers at the same time. Now what you can’t do, is connect any more than one of them to a single Server at the same time, i.e. you can not have 2 Clients connected to the same server at the same time (at least not the way I described above, maybe someone knows how, but not me).

Re: 4D v16.2 false record locks
Jeffrey, We have seen this in v13 (but I imagine it would work the same) any time a user has a record locked, for example in an Input Layout, and the Client crashes requiring a Ctl-Alt-Del. The lock on the record remains forever whether the User is logged in or not and only a restart of the Server can unlock the record.

Re: Web License issue
Doug, This happened to us once, Web Application Extension License is the wrong license. They are named very similarly and 4D sent us the wrong license once. The correct License is listed as "4D Web Application Expansion for 4D Client v13”. If it does NOT say “for 4D Client” on the end, it is wrong license.
