We Increased our Database a while back to 500 MB... and I checked it.. only
20% full... not the problem. I just sometimes get wierd results. For
example, I was clicking on the update button and there were 44 users online
then I clicked again about 30 seconds later and 0 users online.....? Just
wondering where this info disappearing?.... Could it be a problem with
duplicate Session IDs? Shouldn't the Session IDs Primary Key be written
with the Following format (Date+SessionID). Just a though, in case a reboot
was needed on the servers and chassis...
