General troubleshooting tips
 
The following are general notes about ProtoBase:
After a “hard shutdown” you use a batch file to delete startup files. Contact Siriusware Technical Support for more information about this script.
What are the typical reasons why totals don’t match in Salesware and pbadm32 (you should check this when you close out each day)?
Someone added a transaction in pbadm32.
Salespoint timed out – Transaction went through but the salespoint thinks it didn’t, so credit card is used again. Change the timeout value set with the ProtobaseTimeout .INI setting.
The best way to troubleshoot a ProtoBase server that is not working is to look in Task Manager. If there is a problem with the server, you see lots of processes stacking up.
