Unexpected deadlock errors  Logging out stops services

Release Bulletin Sybase® Enterprise Portal Enterprise Edition Version 5.0 for Windows

Must run SySAM before EAServer

[CR #270280] If you run EAServer as a service, the number of connections that can be established may be limited to the number permitted by the Small Business Edition. If SySAM is not running when EAServer tries to read your license information, the Small Business Edition, which limits the number of connections, starts.

Workaround: To work around this problem, follow these steps, then reboot your machine:

StepsRemoving limits on number of connections in EAServer

  1. At a command prompt, run regedt32.

  2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services.

  3. Highlight the name of the server that is running as a service; for example, “Jaguar”. Choose Edit | Add Value.

  4. In the Add Value dialog box:

    1. Enter “DependOnService” as the Value Name.

    2. Select REG_MULTI_SZ as the Data Type.

    3. Click OK.

  5. The Multi-String Editor dialog box displays. Enter “sysam”. You can specify additional dependencies on other services by entering the service names, one per line. The EAServer service does not start until all the listed services are already running.

  6. Reboot your machine.
