Re: Lost maps in GridMap WS

I'm currently (since some time over the weekend) not getting maps returned from GridMap. Species names, datasets etc. are coming back OK. When I View Source on the displayed web page I see 'img src = "Null"'. Is there a know problem at present?

Thanks

Hi Alan,

Thats because you've broken it ...;)

I've got some monitoring software on some of the services and some of them have been down since Friday night
Hopefully Jon can restart them shortly

Best wishes

Hi James

Well, I thought I would test it to destruction ;)

Thanks a lot, and good to hear from you.

Thanks Jon (I assume).

Re: Lost maps in GridMap WS

Hi,

yes, I saw they were down at the weekend, but there was nothing I could do until Monday morning.  It was a problem with orphaned connections to the spatial database engine (SDE).  I've been looking into this problem and have a few things I'm going to try to resolve it.  Up until now I've been tidying these connections on a regular basis - but I hadn't done it for a week or so and so this happened. :(

I won't be able to look at it in detail until about 1-2 weeks time.  But this is very high on my priority list.  I'll keep a close eye on it and get it back up asap if it re-occurs - I'll watch out for e-mails from James's monitoring program.

Sorry, Jon
