Hi,
We have a problem with our application where the ASP session variables are
lost at random intervals.
The application used to be pretty reliable but lately it has been getting
worse. Maybe this is due to an increase in traffic across all the sites each
month.
I've got logging enabled on the Application Pools but they are only set to
recycle in the early hours of the morning or if the virtual memory climbs
above 1500mb. Also Rapid Fail Protection is enabled.
All the ASP files are stored on a Windows File Server and are accessed in
IIS as a UNC share. There are about 300 websites configured in IIS all
pointing at the same set of ASP files.
In the Event Log i see errors sometimes like eventid 9 "UNC Access failed
for file blah.asp"
This seems to coincide with IIS losing the sessions but not in all cases.
The error in the log refers to one of two files in our application which are
probably accessed the most regualrly.
Can someone explain why IIS drops all the sessions just because an ASP page
on the file server can't be accessed. Sessions are lost across all
application pools but the application pools don't log a restart in the Event
log either.
Help much appreciated,
Dave
