New to Progress/WebSpeed

[jvoss]

I have a server (Solaris) that keeps getting WebSpeed errors due to hung/inactive users. I've heard about "watchdog/Prowdog" but don't know how to set it up to monitor these connections and kill them off automagically. Can anyone help me with this?

Maybe you should be asking yourself why these "users" hang?? Are your WebSpeed pages/programs working properly? Do they sometimes perform queries that take ages to load (and make users click away)? Have you checked your WebSpeed log files?

Anyway, the watchdog is started against the database. You should be able to start a watchdog by using: prowdog <databasename>
