I read these error messages. There is no ODB corruption. ODB semaphore is locked and all midas programs will fail, they will timeout trying to get the lock,

call in db_lock_database(). Amy's

Thank you for the stack trace, I fixed the buglet that cause midas programs to crash twice,

failure is the cm_msg() codes.
