Access server tables only when server available?

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I'm running a solution which has three parts.

 

Main Application - on FM Server 12

SyncArea - on FM Server 12

Mobile App - on FM Go 12

 

Functionality:

1) Main App is exporting data into SyncArea

2) mobile App is importing data from Sync Area --> offline modification --> export back to SyncArea

3) Main App is importing from Sync Area

 

Everything very straight forward and works well as far as mobile app is within the office LAN and has access to Server.

If there is no LAN connection it seems FM Go is crashing sometimes when iPad is hibernating, even there is no explicit access to SyncArea triggered?

 

Do I get something wrong, in general?

 

Is it possible to make a connection to the SyncArea depending if Server is available?

 

Any hints are appreciated 

 

Thanx

  RG

 

I have a similar problem. I have a tablet (windows 8) that imports records from the filemaker server into the local filemaker database (fm10 adv). Then the tablet is taken out of the wireless range and updates are made. returning to the wireless range to update the info in filemaker server doesn't work until filemaker is restarted on the tablet.

Once the connection is lost, the connection can't be made again until filemaker is restarted, even if the network files weren't attempting to be accessed when outside the network.
