Setting up a web server
I'm looking to put together a dedicated web server for a dozen domains that
I own. Currently they are hosted elsewhere, with about 3 to 4 GB traffic
per month total with most of that traffic from two of the domains. Many
dynamic pages using SSI and Perl CGI, plus SSL will be needed. Traffic is
expected to double or triple over the next couple of years, and additional
domains to be added.
My preference is to use Windows 2003 Server Web Edition running IIS 6.0.
Initially I'm considering using a fractional T1 or SDSL connection, 384K,
moving up in speed as the need is perceived. I'm only about 1/3 mi from the
network connection point, so do I need a T1 type connection or will SDSL be
just as good? SDSL is less than half the cost of T1 for the same bandwidth.
Is 384K sufficient for my initial needs?
The providers I have been pricing supply 1 to 29 static IP numbers, and some
provide DNS service. What is a useful number of static IPs to have? I
undersand that with virtual hosting many sites can share the same IP. Some
providers charge for the DNS service beyond the first one or two domains.
Do I have to use their DNS service, or do the free DNS services I've seen on
the web provide the exact same function? Is there any advantage, or
disadvantage, of setting my machine as a DNS server?
The servers I'm considering are from Dell and Gateway. The minimum
configurations I'm considering are 2.4GHz P4, single CPU, 512MB ECC, RAID
SCSI with two drives. How significant are the advantages of dual Xeon CPUs,
1GB ECC, and RAID SCSI with 3 drives? Any other Hardware considerations? Tag: Setting up Remote Desktop Web Connection on W2k Pro Tag: 305648

help! images work in mozilla but not explorer....
hi there,
I've read through hundreds of posts now, I can't find an answer to my problem. I'm running IIS5 W2K; images are not being displayed properly. The html page loads, but the IE progress bar just keeps running and the images are not displayed. No firewall, proxy, or any other software in place other than Coldfusion MX.
The thing is, in Mozilla, everything works fine. I have several servers, and only this one doesn't work.
an example log entry for a mozilla hit: (i.e working)

executables - simple config issue?
I'm transferring a website to 03-Server (with IIS 6.0)
that was originally on NT4 (with IIS 4). Several of the
pages call a corresponding executable that pulls data
based on user selections then creates an html output.
The problem I'm having is that on the 03-Server, when an
executable is run:
1) ie tries to download it
2) when it runs, nothing happens except a stackdump file
The program was originally built to run on linux but was
modified with Cygwin for our NT4 system. I updated to the
latest version of cygwin1.dll but no dice.
I've been playing around with the configurations of IIS
with no luck. I'm sure it is something obvious that I'm
missing, or maybe it is a new setting in 2003-Server?
Any suggestions? Tag: Setting up Remote Desktop Web Connection on W2k Pro Tag: 305639
Setting UTF8 encoding in IIS using the metabase
Hi,
I'm writing an application which requires output in UTF8. If I set the
codepage using @CODEPAGE (i.e. <%@CODEPAGE=65001%>) at the top of my
ASP page then everything works as expected.
Microsoft claim though that you can set the metabase ASPCodepage
property which seems an easier route rather than going through and
setting codepages explicity in every page in my site.
However, I simply can't get this to work. I've altered it at different
levels in the metabase but to no avail. Has anyone experienced this,
or can anyone confirm it as a bug in IIS?
I'm running IIS5 on Win2k SP3.
I know you can also set Session.CodePage but we've got sessions turned
off so this is not an option.
THanks

IIS6 Disappointing - VERY slow for ASP pages
Like many others here, I've been tearing my hair out trying to find why IIS 6 is so slow serving ASP applications across the network. When accessing the application from a browser on the IIS server (local access ) the pages come up qiuckly. The same application runs with near instant access on slower hardware under IIS 5.
I've put a workstation & the IIS server back to back with a crosover cable to eliminate the network The performance is still poor from the workstatoin & fast when accessed from the server. I suspect the server is trying to do some form of authentication for non-local access, but can't seem to find what.
I notice a lot of similar posts here, and no satisfactory answers. Its enough to send you to Apache!! Tag: Setting up Remote Desktop Web Connection on W2k Pro Tag: 305634
How to prevent loop in ASP page block the Server ?
How can I say to IIS 5 to shutdown an ASP request if the ASP page requested
uses too much processor and/or memory ?
When an ASP page contains an infinite loop, it happens that the virtual
memory grows up until the server stops to respond.
Is there a way to know the name of the ASP page containing the erroneous
code (the inifinite loop)?

Why do I get a password prompt?
Hello, newby alert!!
I have two computers on a peer-to-peer network and I have the same account
(user name and password) set up on both. One of them (Freddy) is running
IIS. On Freddy, I can navigate to http://localhost/printers to show the
local printers, but when I try to list them from the other machine (with
http://freddy/printers), it prompts me for a Guest password.
Why does this happen? The Printers virtual directory is set to use

IIS6/SMTP Logs
OK! I know you deleted my post because in my flustration in not finding any information about the codes in the SMTP log, I used a four letter word. Honestly, I never do that. However, after receiving 700,000 files in the badmail folder due to the default settings of allowing relaying, it took several hours to delete all those files the spammers sent up.
Following procedures in Technet and other search hits, I configured the server to reject relaying. I thought all was well as I was able to send and receive email at the server. Later I received complaints that all the client workstations could not send any email as they were rejected with error message "relaying not allowed".
Looking at the SMTP log, the only difference in the dialog was in the first line after the EHLO request, the RCPT command. I am getting a "550" code followed by "51" when rejected and "52" when mail user authenicated. The only authenicated user is the one installed at the server.
In SMTP properties for relaying, the IP table located on that panel has "localhost" (127.0.0.1). The only was to get any workstation clients to authenicate and not receive the cannot relay message is to insert their IP address in this table. This is as "hack" to get all my clients to work. Every client should not have to be in this table!!!
Does anyone have a good set of instructions to setup email on a 2003 server? This is a simple office network containing XP Pro clients running Outlook Express. I either cannot authenicate the clients, or have a system that allows relaying by the spammers, or a system that thinks all my email traffic is relaying.

Enormous post, sorry. IIS6 - Gone haywire.
If i could have worded the subject better i would have, however that about sums the current situation up.
overview:
win2k3 web edition in a primary/backup farm environment, remote unc paths for website home directories, on a win2k domain. dual network interfaces, only one connected. 1gb ram,2.4ghz intel p4 single cpu servers.
situation:
please excuse the choppiness of all of the actions here, there's been a lot done to troubleshoot this, and im trying to provide as much information as possible.
yesterday, 800 or so sites were migrated from a previously overloaded win2k/iis5 server to a new win2k3/iis6 server. all worked well for about 24 hours.
registered the aspupload component, reset the primary server, it came back up and this is where things died.
inexplicably, the server (see: all sites hosted on this server) began refusing connections/timing out/not responding. event logs will be appended at the end of this. a backup server, exact same configuration, sites, etc took over and all was well while this was investigated. about 3 hours later, this server began showing the same symptoms as its primary. then it too died. while you can still rdp/telnet into the server and not get connections refused, iis refuses to send back any data.
telnet into a site port 80, connection is accepted, type in the normal http get methods to retrieve anything, and the server hangs. ctrl+c'ing the console to escape the session either brings up nothing, or if you press it enough, a generic bad request page is sent back. this was tested both from the localhost and remotely, various operating systems, telnet clients, networks, etc. all of which previously could have seen this server fine.
restart the server, no dice. restart iis, server hangs, cant reset iis via the iisreset command etc. appears to time out.
changing a site's home directory to a localdisk and then reloading works. the site comes up, albeit the change to the home directory only takes effect after the server is restarted (something that has never had to be done in the past with any of our other win2k3 or win2k servers)
reviewing the eventlogs, we find a myraid of interesting things.
for starters, when the boxes were initially setup in a development network, they were plugged into the second network interface. now abruptly, that old network which is now sitting on the disabled interface, and was setup to use dhcp reactivates itself, and begins trying to get replies using an internal network (192.168.x.x) on the live interface (10.0.0.x). this throws yet another interesting wrench into things. flushing dns cache and then finally disabling the old interface (rather than just leaving it as status: media disconnected) remedies this problem, these eventlogs stop appearing.
as for w3svc eventlogs, there are some interesting ones.
at around the time iis appeared to begin refusing connections, or timing out these began appearing:
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W3SVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1010
Date: 10/1/2003
Time: 2:58:56 PM
User: N/A
Computer: ASP21
Description:
A process serving application pool 'DefaultAppPool' failed to respond to a ping. The process id was '476'.
this message, with varying pid's occurs for the next half hour in two minute intervals. iis was reset, and came back without errors. this was followed up with:
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: LSASRV
Event Category: SPNEGO (Negotiator)
Event ID: 40961
Date: 10/1/2003
Time: 3:39:23 PM
User: N/A
Computer: ASP21
Description:
The Security System could not establish a secured connection with the server cifs/10.0.0.xxx. No authentication protocol was available.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
Data:
0000: 6d 00 00 c0 m..Ã?
the 10.0.0.xxx ip is the location of one of the NAS boxes. however, mapping to this path manually worked, and we were able to browse the share. in application pools properties -> health, the enable pinging, and enable rapid fail protection options were removed, and readded, neither had an effect on stopping this event from being included. upping the shutdown/startup time limits for the worker processes also yielded the same results.
iis was still hanging on connections. sent the server for a reboot. came back, same problems. reset iis, came back without errors, but the above eventid 40961 reappeared, followed by still more of the w3svc eventid 1010 errors at again 2 minute intervals.
being the good windows admin, sent the box for another reboot. came back without error. again.
having exhausted any relevant information regarding what happened. a decision is made to remove all domains from the server, fearing a corrupt metabase entry somewhere causing havoc. as i said, putting the content locally, it would work most of the time. the remote NAS was seeing the box communicating, opening sockets, and authenticating correctly using the website credentials setup in iis, just nothing was being returned to the client requesting information. this is now appearing on both servers.
all domains are removed from the server, server is restarted, and there are no warnings/errors in the eventlog at boot. the domains are then reprovisioned to the server. (approximately 800 of them). at this time, new eventlog entries begin appearing. ones which did not appear when the server was originally setup with the domains.
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: IIS Config
Event Category: Catalog
Event ID: 51260
Date: 10/1/2003
Time: 6:50:28 PM

Computer: ASP21
Description:
A child node without a properly formed parent node was found. Ignoring it. Check spelling and format of location properties./LM/W3SVC/13779/ROOT
ErrorCode : 0x0000000D
for this eventid, there is no documentation anywhere. i've checked eventid.net, google, support.microsoft.com, nothing has any answer for either the id, or the event source. after approximately 30 of these event entries within a second, probably caused in part by the provisioning script (this script however, works perfectly on the iis5/win2k server boxes, and other win2k3 boxes on the network)
reprovision the domains, and same problems. content works if located on a localdisk, times out/hangs if located on the NAS share. so now to consult the article: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/deploy/confeat/remstorg.asp
assuming perhaps, when all of the domains were provisioned in such a short period of time, iis attempting to map their unc directories ran out of resources/ports/sockets/whatever we set the key maxuserport as specified in http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/isa/proddocs/isadocs/CMT_RegKey.asp
issue persists after rebooting the servers following making the changes in the registry. i think it needs to be stressed in case replies come back to this of 'check your nas settings' or others trying to not lay blame on the current iis config, that there are identical nas' running far higher loads than those being added by this server farm, and that these nas' are in fact seeing the socket connections made in the majority of the http request attempts, the users have permissions to the unc directories, and all other configuration is fine.
rooting around locally, i find a few files which arent much help either.
in \WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles\HTTPERR
various entries preceeding the death of the webserver such as:
2003-09-30 16:30:07 192.168.xxx.xxx 40512 10.0.0.xxx 80 HTTP/1.0 GET /default.asp?article=vtp - 14183 Timer_AppPool
2003-09-30 16:32:07 192.168.xxx.xxx 43196 10.0.0.xxx 80 - - - - - Timer_ConnectionIdle
nothing too out of the norm im assuming.
now as for today, after and during the death of this server we see thousands of:
2003-09-30 21:47:09 192.168.xxx.xxx 43281 10.0.0.xxx 80 - - - - - Timer_ConnectionIdle
and many:
2003-10-01 19:04:11 10.0.0.xxx 1357 10.0.0.xxx 80 HTTP/1.0 GET / - 1 Connection_Dropped
2003-10-01 19:25:29 10.0.0.xxx 1362 10.0.0.xxx 80 HTTP/1.0 GET / 503 1 N/A
2003-10-01 20:13:49 127.0.0.1 1242 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET / 503 1 Disabled

2003-10-01 22:41:55 127.0.0.1 1884 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET / - 1 Timer_AppPool
which are about the time our repeated telnet attempts into the server are failing/timing out/hanging
at this point, we are at a loss. without events being created that give us -any- clue as to what happened that after 24 hours of the server functioning beautifully, and much faster than our previous win2k servers, we have nothing to go on. the only clues which did appear in the event logs are undocumented, and all similar error messages spit out by the server have no relevant results on google/mskb etc.
if anyone can shed ANY light on any of the topics in this enormous post i would welcome them. no matter how far fetched it may sound, any wild theories, best guesses, similar experiences, anything would be welcomed. if you require any further information or have tips that you would like me to review, or.. if im just completely overlooking the blatantly obvious problem with something, i'd welcome all of it. the more information i can gather the easier it will be to hopefully diagnose this problem, and maybe even come up with a solution.
thank you in advance.

IIS6 path check on wild card mapping
Thanks for any help/ideas on this.
An ISAPI extension is installed as a wild card mapping for the web server.
It is the entry point into some legacy application (has a proprietary API -
not HTTP). The intent is to be able to intercept each request, regardless of
the URI submitted by the browser and to reformat it and pass it into the
legacy code. Various types of URIs represent different features in the
legacy code. So physically, there are no directories with files in them.
There is only the extension, and it acts as a listener for all URIs, takes
each request and maps it into the proprietary API. Sometimes more code is
added to the legacy application which allows it to support a number of new
URIs.
On IIS 5, the extension is invoked for any URI that is requested. For any
type of URI that showed up, IIS would pass that request to the extension.
The extension could handle it how ever it needed to. It works great.
The same code on IIS 6 is installed with a wild card mapping. But the
behavior is different. Before IIS 6 passes the request to the extension it
performs a physical path check against the URI submitted. If the path/file
does not physically exist in wwwroot, IIS 6 will generate a 404 and not pass
the request to the extension (which is waiting for the request). This was
discovered this behavior when we started testing under IIS 6. Couldn't find
any docs that indicate this behavior/assumption.
The path check forces us to physically create every possible folder/file
path combination that we could ever support in the legacy app, and then
maintain that structure when changes are made to the legacy app. This
creates a maintenance nightmare when we deploy on multiple servers. Plus the
files are empty anyhow, IIS 6 never looks inside them it seems, just checks
their presence.
Can I disable the path check that IIS 6 is performing in the web server
config or metabase change some how ?
Is there a work around [that is not maintenance intensive] ?
thanks,

HTTP 411 errors in weblogs
Since our website's "go-live" 3 days ago, our weblogs have shown that
about 1/3 of our site's unique visitors are getting HTTP 411 errors.
These errors are occurring with a SEARCH request type (as opposed to
GET or POST), and a platform/browser combination of WIN98/IE5.5 (log
details attached). Also, the SEARCH request occurs after the same
address has done a GET to our index.asp. This doesn't appear to be
effecting visitors from a particular region/network.
Crunching the weblogs also shows that approx 70% of visitors are on a
WIN98/IE5.5 combo, which is way above the 6-10% we experience with our
other hosted sites (hosted with same company, but on different
servers).
Has anyone else experienced similar problems, and if so, know of a
fix? Our webhost (Hostway) have initially said that it's a problem
with our code, however we beleive with the high WIN98/IE5.5 combo that
it may be a problem with the server (running win2kadv/IIS 5).
Many Thanks,
Casey
