Resolution:
Environment:
===========
TIBCO EMS 4.x
TIBCO Adapter for ActiveDatabase
TIBCO Runtime Agent

TIBCO Adapter for ActiveDatabase is a C++ adapter and uses EMS C++ client libraries  shipped with TRA to communicate with EMS.

The issue where the adapter crashes when EMS client tracing is enabled is due to a defect (CR# 1-8R7D51) with EMS 4.x which was fixed in EMS 5.x.    

Resolution:
===========
  
The workaround for this is either to configure adapter to use EMS 5.x client libraries explicitly or to upgrade TIBCO TRA to latest version which is 5.7.1 and is shipped along with TIBCO Enterprise Message Service 6.0.0 Client Libraries.

To configure the TIBCO Adapter for ActiveDatabase to explicitly use EMS 5.x libraries you will need to add the bin directory of EMS (C:\tibco\ems\5.0\bin) at the beginning of the environment variable(PATH for Windows, LD_LIBRARY_PATH for Linux, Solaris, HP-IA64, SHLIB_PATH for HP-UX PA-RISC and LIBPATH for AIX).
