[Quickfix-developers] Session state

[James R. <jam...@gm...>]

Hello,

We are currently using an Acceptor that is configured for ~40
sessions. Our clients that connect to it are also QuickFIX based. We
have seen some odd behaviour once in a while (1 day per 20 days of
running without problems, the Acceptor is restarted everyday) which
occurs with one or more of the configured sessions. So far we have not
noticed any errors (no sequence problems, nothing) in the
incoming/outgoing logs for the clients or the Acceptor besides what is
listed below.

We are using the latest release of QuickFIX (1.10.2), but we have seen
this behaviour in the past two version of QuickFIX as well.

Any ideas as to what could be going on here?

Thanks.

An example of the Acceptor's log:
