All of the sudden my site, which relies on AJAX for a core component, is acting very erratically. I have the same codebase on my local dev server and it is working as expected. I have customers ranting about these issues, but cannot reproduce them outside of dASP. Is something going on?
Is there a phone number I can use to contact someone at dASP? This is quickly becoming an urgent issue.
I just tested the stored procedures (SQL 2005), and they are returning the data as expected. This appears to be an issue at the application layer- with AJAX losing track of IDs. I haven't updated this component since 7/14/07, and this is the first I've seen problems.
Ok, I can confirm that USER IDs are getting 'swapped' as multiple users access the same component on the site. I am going to see if restarting the web service fixes this.
Ok, I recycled the Application Pool, but it still appears that USER IDs are getting swapped as people log back in. Any idea what's going on here? Will starting / stopping the web site make any difference?
UGH. Hours later and we found the cause: A public static variable had been used in a component used by multiple users, causing USER IDs to get swapped by the system under unique circumstances. A fix has been applied (switched to a Session variable for that component), and we're nervously optimistic that its been resolved.
