Sage - Win 7 and XP compatability issues

Post by bandonsage » 12 Sep 2012, 16:16

I've had a few issues with Sage 50 on networks . Not so much with Sage 2012 , but the previous couple of releases seemed to encounter issues with computers hanging . The error message displayed was "waiting to open file accdta". A common cause seemed to be when XP and Windows 7 was run on the the same network . The issue resloved itself when just the one type of operating system on PCs was in use . Could this be related to SMB opportunistic locking ? If anyone has experienced the same it would be great to hear how you resolved this.

There are several known issues with SMB2 mixed environments with SMB1

You need to disable SMB2 on all PC's until all SMB1 PC are removed, at which point you must re enable SMB2 on ALL PC's
