Using a Verifone 1000 SE pinpad, this problem started after debit cards were enabled. SQL Server is running on a seperate server (SBS 2003 sp1):
After the customer has entered their PIN and pressed enter, time goes by and a receipt does not print and the following happens:
Window pops up - Error # -2147467259 [dbnetlib] connection open (connect()).] sql server does not exist or access denied. Select getdate() as current datetime.
When window closes, get a runtime err 5 & POS disappears and the transaction does not exist in the daily sales journal although the merchant processor shows it in their log.
This event is random and I cannot repeat it at will. Most of the time debit card processing works.
M.S. say's there is somthing amiss w/ the intranet but I'm not convinced. Ping /t forever show no loss. I'm stll inspecting connections though.
Anybody seen this one?
Tnx, Richard
