NWNX and MySQL Server reboot

[sheldie]

We've just started using the ODBC2 functionality with NWNX and found that when our server oes a complete re-boot (ie, the machine shutsdown and then restarts), NWNX loads before MySQL does. This is causing ODBC2 to report a no connection state.

Are there any tricks to stop NWNX from loading too quickly?

Thanks,

Sheldon.

This is nothing more than a workaround, but what about the following: Create a batch file that has these lines in it:

@echo off
sleep 60
c:\nwn\nwnx.exe parameter1 parameter2 ....

This would wait 1 minute before it loads nwnx, giving mysql enough time to come up. If you have set your system up to somehow use services, there is a way to make a service depend on another - but I do know how from the top of my head.

If you install MySQL to run as a service, and put the shortcut to NWNX in your startup folder, MySQL will start first.
