[mapguide-users] Problems/Questions with the ArcSDE 3.5 Provider

[Bruce Dechant]

Bill,

This is normal behavior. The MapGuide server caches the FDO connection so that it can be reused later - this is for performance reasons.

All of the changes mentioned below are done inside the serverconfig.ini file.
If you need to drop these cached connections sooner you can do the following:

[FeatureServiceProperties]
DataConnectionTimeout = 3600

The above value 3600 would be 1 hour (the value is entered in seconds). The default is one day.

Or if you can live with a performance slowdown you could tell the server to NEVER cache a particular provider connection (ArcSDE in this case).
To that you would do the following:

[FeatureServiceProperties]
DataConnectionPoolExcludedProviders= OSGeo.ArcSDE


Be warned that this will have an impact on performance.

Thanks,
Bruce

Hello. 

I have a few questions regarding the 3.5 provider in MGE 2011. (I posted
this first on FDO, and it was suggested to cross-post here)

When Mapguide first connects, it spawns 3 gsrvr processes on the SDE Server.
Then for every browser session that opens, another one is spawned. AND, they
don't close when the browser closes. The Mapguide service has to be
recycled.

Is this normal behavior? If so, is there any way to make the connection
close when the browser closes, or perhaps set something in the
serverconfig.ini to shorten the time till it expires naturally?

We also tried the direct connect method. This is baffling to me, because we
get the exact same behavior as before. Shouldn't the browser spawn gsrvr
processes on the Mapguide Server? Not the SDE server?

BTW, the ArcSDE version is 9.3.1 running on Oracle 10gR2

Any insight or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill Ten Broeck
