Thank you Bill, If you lived closer, I'd consider reusing some of that hardware you have as extras, but alas the cost of shipping over the border would hardly make it worth it. But yes, green as possible please. The world needs less hardware, not more. We are strictly a one-car family and I'v

And there's always e-Bay. I've got a closet-full of stuff that will run X.2.8. I actually use a 450MHz DP-G4 that I picked up used -- way faster than the 200Mhz G3 I used until a few months ago. I like to be on the trailing edge a bit, though my wife (new iMac) thinks I'm a little cheap.

Thank you Robert, I appreciate the tip. I know it won't be simple, but I think it's worth the effort to try. I'd prefer a Virtual Machine option over extra hardware right now. The cost of Mac OS X is relatively minimal, for the experiment. I'll let you know if it works out. > -Original Me

Well, one of the major changes in 5.5, seemed to directly address this issue. Periodically, other witango shops have consulted with me, giving me access to their systems. This issue, was always related to the odbc system being used, or oracle, and to some degree fixable. For the most part,

I can see how code could make the problem worse, but in our case, we could never fix it completely. It took 2 months of tracing with primebase engineers to fix issues in their odbc implementation. And once we worked them all out, witango never went down. It never crashed, or hung, for month

I have a similar solution that essentially polls the webserver looking at response codes and kills the process when it is hung.
