Timeout Expired

Currently this error is common to the ForexCargo system. The developers are still working on it. For the mean time the easiest solution is to log off the system completely.

So when you encounter a timeout expired message wait at least one more minute and if nothing happens log off the server and then log back in.

After you encounter the timeout expired message, don't click on the ForexCargo icon anymore. Nothing will happen even if you click it a hundred times because the application is already running in the background, it just can't connect to the database server.

So the next time you encounter this all you have to do is log off the server and the re login . Remember, don't just close your remote desktop as this will only bring you to the same session were you left off.

If you encounter this often, please email the developer directly at Nelson@Forexworld.com
