[Firebird-devel] Connection lost

[Gerardo C. <gc...@ya...>]

I don't know if this is an ODBC driver or FB issue, but here it is: My 
application inits and successfully connects to FB server, and after a 
few trannsactions connection is lost and reconnection attempts randomly 
work.

This is the error message I get:
******** Error Message:
Error Nº:  1526
Message:  Connectivity Error: Unable to complete network request to host 
"MYSERVER".
Failed to establish a connection.
unknown Win32 error 10055

ODBC - Message:  Unable to complete network request to host "MYSERVER".

ODBC - SQL Status:  08004

Environment info:
     OS: Base Win98se, also tried  on another machine with all
         existent patches installed and latest MDAC
     FB server: 1.5 build 4306
     ODBC driver: 1.02.00.67
         Application made with VisualFoxPro 8 sp1.
         connstring = "DRIVER=Firebird/Interbase(r) driver"
         + ";UID=myuser"
         + ";PWD=mypassword"
         + ";DBNAME=MYSERVER"
         + ":C:\mypath\mybase.fdb"
         + ";DIALECT=3"
         + ";CHARSET=ISO8859_1"

I know there's not a VFP issue because the same app is prepared to work 
indifferently with either M$$QL and Firebird, and using M$$QL this 
doesn't happen.
This only occurs if application/FB server are installed on a Win98 
machine, on W2k all work perfectly.

If this can be solved, great! If not it seems that my customer will ave 
to upgrade their server ;-)

Thanks in advance,

Gerardo
