Debugging Server Pools
Forcing a connection to a specific port is a useful debugging method for database
server pool problems. This method allows you to know in advance which database
line the FlashCONNECT session will use.
1. Create a temporary server pool containing only one FlashCONNECT connection.
There should be only one database line supporting this server pool.
2. Use the w3ServerPool parameter to direct the application to that server pool
when the application is run.
2 Sema Semaphore number. Also the
index in w3SessionId.
3 TimeOut Number of seconds until the
connection times out.
4 KillInfo Windows: socket
UNIX: Process ID
5 Pipe Name Name of the pipe used by the
ISAPI or CGI connector.
6 Host Name Value of the w3ServerPool used
to establish this connection.
7CookieValue of the w3SessionId for this
session.
-uNN Unlocks table entry NN.
For development use only. Before using this option, shut down and
restart the FlashCONNECT service.
-v Displays the list of environmental parameters passed into the
FlashCONNECT application.
• These variables are retrievable using the w3GetCGI program.
• Using the FlashCONNECT Administration program configures the list
of passed-in variables on Windows; edit FlashCONNECT.conf on UNIX
Web servers.
-V Displays the current version of the FCDebug program.
-pNN Sets the protocol version to NN.
Not for general use. The FlashCONNECT service must be restarted
after using this option.
