June 29, 200025 yr Awhile back I post a query about incompatibility issues with MacOS 9 and FMP Server 3.0. It appears that under some circumstances FMP Server 3.0 has an Disk op problem with OS 9 causing the FMP Server to crash unexpectedly. I have found a solution. Using a utility like AppDisk [pay your shareware fees its really worth it ] to create a RAM disk and loading your db files into RAM will eliminate the problem. AppDisk will also auto save to disk at regular intervals, so you won't lose data if you have a system crash. Our server was crashing almost daily under normal load before installing the RAM disk. It's 3 weeks after the install and not one crash even under heavy loads.
