I'm currently having a problem with the Shared Property Groups associated
with MTS and COM+. The problem occur in a server product (implemented using
Delphi 5 Enterprise). The software use Shared Property Groups to store
different properties (server statistics for example)... When I perform a
stress test of the software, everything seems to work fine for about an hour
or two - then I start getting "The Parameter is Incorrect" errors (no
consecutive calls with succeed). The errors originate from the function
below.

The following function is used to retrieve a certain Shared Property Group
(identified by the SServerGroupName constant)... after a number of calls
(this varies - somewhat between 10,000 and 50,000 calls) an exception is
caught stating that "The Parameter is Incorrect".

function GetServerGroup(const S: string): ISharedPropertyGroup;
begin
 try
  Result := CreateSharedPropertyGroupManager.Get_Group(SServerGroupName);
  except
   on E:Exception do
      raise Exception.Create('Unable to get Server Group (' + E.Message +
')');
  end;
 end;

Could anybody provide any useful information here? Why does everything work
fine only for some time? I'm baffled - can you unbaffle me?

Thanks,
