I am looking to find out if anybody using Pan X server has run into the following issues:
First, I have two Macs in my office accessing a remote server. If I create a new record on Mac1 and enter some data, Mac 2 will synchronize the new record but not the data. I am using server auto numbering of records. This is a little weird, but I am assuming the record is still locked, so the record showed up but not the data. So, I made a procedure to test to see if the record is still locked. It stays locked for as long as I care to wait for it to unlock. I have it set on the client to unlock after 20 seconds, but it doesn’t. It is also set on the server for a time out request in 30 seconds. If I move off of that record or synchronize, there are no locked records and synchronizing on Mac 2 shows the record and the data.
Question #1, How to get the record to unlock without moving off of it?
Secondly, a second user in a different location accesses the same databases on the same remote server. If she enters a record with data and moves off of the record, I can synchronize and see both the new record and the data. If I add a record and enter data, she can’t see it when she synchronizes. Her record count doesn’t change. If she quits and relaunches, it doesn’t appear, however, if I made changes to a form or procedure, those synchronize upon relaunching. She is obviously connected to server as it is receiving her actions, and I am able to synchronize them. What makes this scenario a little different is that I consistently get her updates, but she can’t get mine.
Question #2: Has anybody else experienced this?
btw: The server is always running.
Thanks for any feedback.
