If qkview is executed, and while it is executing, a problem arises with MCPD, it is possible that qkview may enter a loop where it continually writes the following lines to the file ./mcp_module.xml: end_transaction.
Disk can fill up, causing a system failure.
1. qkview is run while mcpd is executing properly. 2. mcpd enters unstable state while qkview is running.
Do not run qkview if mcpd has been acting unpredictably.
Qkview MCP module has been corrected to prevent qkview from looping infinitely when failing to connect to MCPD.
