It took a couple of months to find the cause of this one, but Yusuf finally was able to put together something that reproduced the issue. The issue was this:

The issue was this:

A) When a Edit/Post took place in the grid in the application, the triggers would execute and issue status updates to the client (see below).

B) The status updates in the application would call Application.ProcessMessages, which would allow keystrokes to get processed.

C) The keystroke processing would cause the grid to navigate and Post the current edit *again*.

D) The EDB Server would allow this re-entrant call, and boom, things are all messed up.

The part that we were missing was the triggers. All of the testing done here did not involve triggers, so we couldn't figure out how a re-entrant server call would get past the required locks. It was able to do so because every lock that was held was held by the same session/thread.

What we ended up doing was two-fold:

1) The triggers were issuing status/progress updates to the client in cases that they shouldn't have. This was a bug, and has been fixed.

2) The EDB Server was allowing invalid server calls to take place in the middle of status/progress updates (from number 1 above). This was originally allowed to prevent deadlocks during pings and other non-essential server calls during status/progress updates, but it also allowed Post operations to sneak in while a Post was already taking place, due to number 1 above. This was also a bug, and has been fixed.

Because of 2 above, you *will* see error #1103 "Invalid request" error messages now whenever this situation occurs again (this is less likely because of 1 above, but could happen if you have a SET STATUS MESSAGE TO, SET PROGRESS TO, etc. in your trigger body). These error messages are basically harmless, and just indicate that an attempt was made to issue an invalid request to the EDB Server from within a status/progress update.
