Generally speaking, this means the Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge Client has lost contact with the ODBC-ODBC Bridge Server. This usually only happens if the ODBC-ODBC Bridge Server process handling the client connection has terminated unexpectedly. E.g., if the server machine was shut down or the ODBC-ODBC Bridge Server timed out the client. It can also happen if there was a segmentation fault or bus error in the ODBC-ODBC Bridge Server, unixODBC Driver Manager or the ODBC driver you were connecting to. You should report this to Easysoft Support (). Please include the versions of all software being used, the platforms involved and the name of the ODBC driver at the server end you were using.
