   The more I think about this and poke around at the code and logs I think
this is just a matter of the CC process taking to long and IC giving up and
declaring it a failure. Looking at log_transaction, and what I see in the log when
the process dies, the code/string that should contain details from the GW about the
reason for rejection it is instead just 0.  When there is a bona fide CC failure
the entire string of information from the CC GW is written to CART/logs/log.
But when it simply times out the the reason string is just '0'   Clearly IC isn't
waiting long enough.  I'm using the high TRAFFIC mode with a PIDCheck 120
if that would make a difference.  Otherwise anyone know if there is a global
or catalog configuration value that would tell IC to wait longer for the CC
server to respond ?  I can debug if necessary but some guidance on where
to begin would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Jon
