Re: Online 7.13 error 25588

>What is this error and what are the possible causes? Generally means that either your networking setup is hosed, or you cannot connect for some reason via shared memory. The actual error is $ finderr 25588 -25588 The appl process cannot connect to OnLine server server-name. An error in the application can produce this message. Check your CONNECT statement and the sqlhosts file. A system failure can also produce this message. If you can find no immediate cause for the failure, note the circumstances, and contact your OnLine database administrator for assistance. The shared memory communication subsystem is down or not functioning. Contact the OnLine database administrator to report the problem. I've most often seen it when there was some configuration problems...generally on the client side of a connection. David
