Hi Werner,

this message may ocour when you use iRules with commands that pauses/suspends TCL processing (e.g. your [table] commands). In your case the iRule may eventually become "suspended" till the answer is received.

If the underlying TCP connection breaks for whatever reason in between (e.g. [table] query send, TCL suspended and then connection terminated), then this warning message is logged when TCL tries to continues the former suspended TCL code.

The cause of this problem is not the [table] command itself. Its just that the TCP session is closing at the wrong moment and lets the [table] command complain. Most of the time this warning message could be savely ignored...

Yeah i know, my answer doesn't solves your problem. But the error message is not the "reason" for the connection problems, its more or less just a "reaction" to it.

Cheers, Kai
