getting an err "could not spawn a broker (1890)" when trying to start an application.
has been running untill now.

progress82c and progress101b running on win2k3 server.
old app is using 82c -- now throwing the err, on client and also when trying to run on server itself.
new app using 101b -- runs fine.

the old app is to be replaced by new app, but not all modules in new app avail yet.
had to restart the server due to microsoft glitch.

now i am lost .. does anyone have suggestion ?
 
First of all you should have a look at the database log file. The error message(s) in that log file maybe give a better indication of what's wrong.

I am just guessing that you have a conflict in IP ports or the broker couldn't find free a port within the given port range. The latter is usually the case if the database has a defined port range for the remote servers and "all over sudden" some ports of this range are occupied by another application ( another database? ) ...

HTH, RealHeavyDude.
 
my guess.... adminserver ubroker.properties for both progress versions contain the same information. Appserver starts for 1 version and unable to start for another.
 
Maxim, the Admin Server was introduced into the product with V9. Although the AppServer itself was introduced late in the V8 product life cycle, AFAIK, in 8.2c it was not available. Therefore it's highly unlikely that the problem is related with the ubroker.properties file.

I am guessing that both versions in the end use the same script to start the database and the parameters supplied to start the database broker are the same ...

RealHeavyDude is correct, admin server is not applicable for 82c.
also, the two versions do not use same script.

the log file shows error broker could not spawn a server (1157). where error on client shows err (1890)
found more threads about broker , the hint about tcp i guess is helping out.
after changing max/min ports and rebooting the server i am still waiting for the error ... users now can use both applications simultaneously.
