(RADIATOR) Could not connect to SQL database

Hello Andrew -

This is likely to be a problem with freeTDS, but have you checked  
that the SQL FailureBackoffTime is being respected? By default  
Radiator waits for 600 seconds (10 minutes) before retrying the  
database. If the problem is indeed freeTDS, you may want to check if  
a different version runs better. Otherwise I suggest you run an  
instance of Radiator on Windows and proxy requests from the other  
machine to it.

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
