Filemaker dbases go offline in XML?

[spongebob]

Hi

has anyone seen this?

I have a Filemaker Server 9 on Machine A (OSX) and Apache/Lasso on

Machine B (OSX) and its all working fine.

Then all of a sudden, whilst I wasnt developing, any Lasso Query (like PHP) returns the Lasso Error

"The data returned by Filemaker Server Advanced was not in the proper XML format."

Looking at the logs of the FM Server didnt seem to reveal anything.

If I execute the XML test query

http://localhost/fmi/xml/FMPXMLRESULT.xml?-dbnames

on the Machine A I get:

20602

and nothing more from the FM Server.

Lasso on Machine B says all dbases are offline.

A reboot of machine A fixed the problem. But this was eerie and the effects VERY annoying as all goes offline.

Any ideas anyone?

I think this was definately FM Server 9 getting upset...any ideas why that might happen?

OSX Tiger 10.4.11, FM Server 9 (not advanced), Lasso 8.5.4, Apache 1.33

Have you run the v2 updater on Server 9?

I dont think so (will take me 2 days to check as Im outta town). Was this a known issue on v1?

Also this is on a production server. You think I can harmlessly apply the updater? Its on Tiger not Leopard...

There were a number of issues with the WPE's quitting in Server 9.0v1. No version of Server runs on Leopard as of yet.

Sorry it took me so long to reply.

The update definately fixed this problem; server now stable as a rock.

Thank You!
