SYMPTOMS

The error handler registered by dberrhandle() is not called if dbresults() or dbnextrow() returns FAIL due to the server shutting down or the network connection dying. In many cases, the dbproc is not marked as dead. This will happen if the executable is an OS/2, Windows NT, Windows, or MS-DOS program.

STATUS
