    - Http Posting Issue Hello, We are performing an Http synchronous post using the msxml4.dll (sp2) on WinXP client machines to post information to a Windows 2003 server using asp. We have been very successful using this method and have had no issues with this configuration until recently. There are two issue that we are experiencing on various machines 1. Workstation will post but then hang and not return. 2. Workstation will post but return 3 - 3 1/2 minutes later with a message "The download of the specified resource has failed." On the server side in the IIS logs we see a corresponding http 400 entry with zero bytes sent and an sc-win32-status code of 64 which indicates (The specified network name is no longer available). We also know that these posts have been processed on the backend but fail to make it back to the client. I have to believe that this is a network related issue and am having trouble determining where to look. My questions are: I have read that Http 400 errors refer to a client side problem or network related issue. Is this true ? Could this condition occur under high volume or network staturation at the client site ? How can we go about debugging what the root cause is ? If someone could answer my questions and/or provide some feedback I would greatly appreciate it. Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364779

    - Are you participating in the IIS Debugging Week? The demand for a dedicated presentation on IIS debugging has been high for years. The IIS Webcast Series is going to deliver with a special week long presentation entitled - IIS Debugging Week. This is a great time for many IIS administrators and developers because Microsoft has spent two years architecting, designing, and implementing a touch all tool in the debugging space - welcome to the debugging party called Debug Diagnostics 1.0. Last week at TechEd 2005 in Orlando, FL, the developer of Debug Diagnostics 1.0 delivered a compelling and very well received presentation on how Debug Diagnostics 1.0 might just be the future to debugging IIS (and other products) crashes, hangs, and memory leaks. He didn't only back this up with slides outlining critical points in each type, but he showed them in action and how Debug Diagnostics 1.0 will save days, if not hours, solving complex web application problems. In this debugging week, the design team will participate and take your key feedback on how they can make this tool even strongerl for you. It isn't a tool designed just for this platform or that platform but is designed to resolve key problems across all IIS platforms: 4, 5, 5.1, and 6.0. The debugging world will begin to understand how DebugDiag can make there lives easier and how extensibility is the key to this tool moving Microsoft in the right direction with product support. It would be great to see all of you there next week asking questions, learning about Debug Diagnostics, and more importantly providing feedback on this tool that the IIS team feels is the answer to many customer's "prayers." Let's talk about customer feedback at TechEd 2005 - "It was a shame that presenters ran out of time before showing final demo on DiagDebg tool; however, i am looking forward to future releases, webcasts, labs, etc." "Excellent Presentation!!!" "Debug Diagonistics looks like a great tool, cannot wait to start using it." "Excellent presentation on what looks to be an exciting new tool that will allow admins to debug IIS." "I can't wait to use this product on my servers! I know this will save me so much time troubleshooting production issues that this session made tech-ed worth it for me." This is only a snapshot of the feedback given by the 800+ in attendance at this breakout session. Your opinion counts, make sure that you have downloaded the tool, fired up your server, and are listening diligently on Monday and not stopping until Friday and provided your opinion on how Microsoft can make your life easier and your day more efficient!

    - WMI Script Error - No Such Interface Supported We are using iisapp.vbs (c:\windows\system32) to execute AppPool recycles via script. This works great on 14 of the 15 servers, but one server consistently fails with a "No such interface supported" error. Looking through the code, this is happening when we call the WMI .Recycle method of the newly instantiated AppPool object. I've created a very simple snippet and I get the same error on this machine. apoolid = "ApolloAppPool" set refWMILocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SwbemLocator") set refWMIServices = refWMILocator.ConnectServer("localhost", "root/MicrosoftIISv2") set nodeObj = refWMIServices.Get("IIsApplicationPool='W3SVC/AppPools/" & apoolID & "'") nodeObj.Recycle Error is "SWbemObjectEx: No such interface supported" This must be a server-specific configuration, as the other servers work just fine. However, I am at a loss as to what to check. Any ideas? Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364770

    - IIS Cache Problems I have a customer who is having problems with his ASP pages serving a updated page when he makes updates to it. No other customers on the webserver have problems. To give a short example of the issue here is what happens: The page gets updated and when he clicks to view the updates he still sees the oringinal content. If he clicks on the refresh button then the updated content appears. I have been through many different articles on the Microsoft site dealing with Caching issues on IIS 6.0 and have had no luck with any. The only thing I can find that is almost exactly what is happening requires a phone call to get a hot fix. Has anyone ever used this and do you know if it will work, and is there a charge?

    - IIS uninstall I uninstalled IIS from a Windows 2000 Server, as there was no need for IIS to be on it. Uninstall caused explorer.exe to stop, so desktop icons & taskbar disappeared. There were no other programs running during the uninstall, and I was able to go into Task Manager, New Task and start explorer, bringing the desktop back and the server is running fine, however I havn't rebooted. I've searched google for any clue as to what would cause this but coming up empty handed. Does anyone have an idea what happened? (Server has up-to-date virus definitions, daily scan, no problems there). Thanks in advance. Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364744

    - Assigned IP address "disappeared" from IIS advanced web site identification config Hi, A couple of days ago i got a call from a user working from home that they couldn't get onto our intranet site. The machine runs 2 web sites in IIS - default web site where all the intranet stuff i built and things like our timesheet system all live in there as Virtual Directories, and the MS CRM website. Each has 2 IP addresses (one for the internet-facing NIC and one for the LAN NIC, it's dual-homed) and DNS records to suit. Everything had been working since I migrated to the new machine about a month ago. This morning I was looking at IIS and checked the IP address assignments. The IP address that the default website has was no longer in the "Multiple SSL identities for this web site" section of the "advanced web site identification" window. No-one but me has access to that machine and I certainly didn't change that. Anyone else noticed this on their machine (win2003 server)? Any ideas why? Is it Windows being "smart" and possibly removed it sometime the internet circuit was down here perhaps? I've seen Windows server do screwy things on dual-homed servers if it detects dropped packets on one interface, sometimes it starts rerouting replies coming in on that interface back out the other one which get dropped at the client... My suspicion is maybe IIS is similarly "smart" but I'd just like to hear if anyone else has seen this sort of behaviour. And if it is IIS/W2k3 pre-emptively "sorting itself out", can I switch that "feature" off? TIA Niall Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364725

    - Delegated administration for websites in IIS6 I spend an hour searching on Internet how to delegate administration tasks in IIS6 and have not found any viable solution. I did hacks with metabacl.exe to modify AdminACL but it did not do the trick, users still can not administer respective websites via MMC. I end up putting users in local Administrators group on server for them to administer website. While it might work for my case I'm not sure I understand how Microsoft positions IIS6 for ISPs where they would have to delegate IIS administration to users. I doubt that ISPs will put all users in Administrators group. Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364699

    - Smart Host is not sending any authentication information. This seems like this should be easy but it is not working for me at all. I have configured on my Windows/2000 Professional the SMTP services. The intent is that outbound messages should go to my ISP for processing. So I added under the "Delivery" tab - under "Advanced" my Smart Host's IP address with the brackets "[]" and have cleared the "Attempt Direct Delivery before sending to Smart Host. Under the "Outbound Security" I selected "Basic authentication" and put in my user name and password for the ISP server. So what happens is my little SMTP server does indeed take the messages, makes a connnection to the "Smart Host". But does not send the authentication information. A short look at the SMTP event log shows the handshake but no indication of the userid or passwoard being sent. What happened? Is there some configuration point I am missing here?

It was set up using the Admin account, but I get "You are not authorized to view this page". Prior to the upgrade this worked fine. I have search the KB, MSDN and TechNet and have not yet found a solution to this issue. I have even checked the list of changes and there is no mention of Front Page Server extensions.

    - emails stuck in queue We are running Windows 2000 Server and one of our applications on the system generates email messages to be sent out to users. These emails are getting stuck in the queue and are not being sent out. The strange thing about it is that when we reboot the server whatever is in the queue is successfully sent out and then the system appears to work as it is suppose to for the next 24 - 36 hours and sends out messages normally. Then it suddenly stops sending messages out and they collect in the queue until the next server reboot. We have not been able to find anything in the logs indicating something is failing or to give any indication as to what is changing from when we reboot to when it stops working.

    - Weird Issue Between Test and Production Hello, I am having a strange issue between my Test environment and my Production environment. The problem is my site runs beautifully on Test and almost beautifully on Production. They are both the exact same machines, with the same memory, and same exact code and yet Production has some serious issues with controls not raising the "changed" events back on the server. It does or appears to do the Postback but my code in my changed event is not firing. It seems to only do it on a couple controls "radio" and "checkbox". It's like my event "wiring" is coming undone somehow. Is there some setting I'm missing on Production that would not allow these post backs to happen? When I set up Test I don't remember ever doing anything besides activating ASP.NET and ASP. Besides that the site came up fine. I did the same thing on Production when it went up and yet it isn't working right. Is there maybe some "diff" tool I can use to peek between the two? Production and Test Server Configurations: Windows 2003 Web Edition SP 1 Pentium 4 2.80 GHz 1.00 GB RAM Thank you in advance! -- Ian Lane Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364619

    - IIS 6.0 website slow thru port 80, 443 is fast I don't have much experience with Windows Server and IIS so I may have missed something real obvious. However, several days of searching the internet for a solution have been fruitless. (This is my 1st post on WebserverTalk.) A week ago we upgraded our web server from Windows Server 2000/IIS 5.0 to Server 2003/IIS 6.0. ASP pages with many calls to our webapp are very slow except when using SSL on port 443. The speed difference is at least a factor of 20. The webserver is behind a Cisco PIX515E with DMZ. The database is on our main Windows 2003 File Server (not in the DMZ with the Web Server). We did not have this problem until upgrading the Web Server to Server 2003/IIS 6.0. For example: http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/group.asp?GroupID=CLEARALL is slow. http://tinyurl.com/bln2b is fast. Any thoughts on what the problem may be?

    - IIIS 6.0 and authentication Hi, I am trying to understand how it works. Imagine that I have a web server (win2003) with enabled only integrated authentication. 1. Which process (component of iis) performs authentication? 2. user is only checked if had provided good name and password or it matters later for e.g in w3wp process during executind asp.net code? 3. wewp uses Network Service account so how it can use for e.g. MyNameAccount which I have entered during logging into w web page? I was looking for a detailed information how it works, but found only in IIS6.0 documentation info about specific component and what account they use. No info about influence of user credentials.

    - Getting all the sub directories in a virtual directory using C# HI, I am looking for a way to set "HTTPExpires" property on web folders using C#. Actually for all the virtual directories and their subfolders which are "included" in IIS metabase file, I am able to get their DirectoryEntry using DirectoryEntry.Children calls recursively (System.DirectoryServices) on which I can set the new property value. But there are folders which are visible through IISManager but they can't be retrieved as children of virtual directory entry when enumerated using DirectoryEntry.Children call. I need to alter the properties on these folders as well and so I am looking for a way to get a handle to their corresponding IIS (DirectoryEntry) object. If someone can point me to how IISManager retrieves these folders when listing installed websites, given that they are not written in IIS metabase file, then that can help me with getting these.

    - Block an IP address from being logged in the log files Well, I have a network admin that is running this whatsup professional software and for some reason it is hammering our web server with more than 10,000 hits per month. I'd like to block this machines IP address from either the log files or from being reported on awstats. I don't want to block the IP address from accessing the web server, just stop the logging of that IP address so that I can get back to accurate logs.... Any help would be great!! Thanks..

    - Ampersand in url problem running Advanced Server 2000 Odd problem with ampersand in file name... When a file is being retrived from the W2k Adv Server it cannot find it. When I put the same file on a W2k "Regular" server it finds it just fine. We have checked all the settings in the webserver and they are both SP 4 same version. The only difference between the 2 servers is that one is advanced. Example file name: https://www.myserver.com/old/Safety & Facilities/agenda.htm -- Kevin Cornwell Jacobs Sverdrup Inc.

    - COM Object Errors using IIS6 Hello, I am currently trying to migrate an asp site from one location to another, and one of the main differences is that the first box uses Visnetic WebSite on Win2k and the new box is Win2003 running IIS6. One of the issues I am having is with a 3rd party COM object we use to send info. It is a DLL in the sys32 directory. I have registered it correctly, and even used a tool they supply with it to successfully test connectivity. But when I reference it through any application that uses it, I get the following error message: Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046' Permission denied: 'CreateContext' /testmerchant/testlink.asp, line 202 The object is declared in the global.asa file. Here is line 202: AuthContext = XXXLinkObject.CreateContext(CONTEXT_AUTH) I have tried almost everything in the book to try to get this to work. I have given the app pool access to Local System, I have given launch and access permissions to everyone for the object. Even the maker of the COM object has given up. I am almost to the point of having to drop back and punt, but I wanted to see if anyone here might have encountered a similar problem, and if they could suggest something that might work that I haven't tried or thought of. Thanks. -- AFM Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364592

    - Odd IIS issue... We've got a 2k3 server running our intranet site. About once a week, the site becomes unavailable. I check the server, and there are no errors reported, nothing in the event logs, etc. All services are running at this time. To get the site back up, I restart the IIS service. This of course restarts the 5 sub services, and in about 20 seconds, the site is back up.... I've heard rumors of a fix for this, but was told that the patch was not available for general public download... Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364590

    - Anonymous Access When Share Resides on a DC I've got IIS running to host sites using UNC paths pointing to a share on my Domain Controller. The sites work fine with the exception of granting anonymous access. IIS is using the local IUSR account to run, but obviously that doesn't exist on the DC, so I'm pretty sure that's the reason I'm being prompted for a Username/Password. I've tried using a domain account as the anonymous user account in IIS, but no luck. Is this possible to do? If so, does anyone know where I can find the list of permissions to grant the domain account on the IIS machine? Thanks. Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364586

    - Empty Err Number I have this code in an ASP class: If Err.Number <> 0 then 'error handling here... End If The code worked just fine. Now, when I debug, Err.Number and Err.Description are empty, so, of course, as Err.number is no longer 0, the error handling part gets executed, aborting the normal execution even though there's no actual error in my code. I have googled it, but the only hint I found is that this happens if you do a "Dim Err" in your code. I haven't. Does anybody have any idea why the Err object behaves this way, and is there a workaround so that I do not have to change every "If Err.Number <> 0" in my code? Thanks, Doru Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364569

    - Catchalls and host headers. In IIS 5.0 I could have >1 catchall host header however in IIS 6.0 when I try and set one up it will not let me use a catchall host header. Is there some way to change this? Tag: XMLHTTP 401 Error Tag: 364564

I am not sure if this is the right group to post this. But can not find
a better one.

I have a VB6 client program sent HTTP request to my web server.

The server is configured to require SSL and using Integrated
Authentication (no anonymous).

The program works fine for over 6-month now. Couple days ago, we have a
new user he just keep getting 401 error and I have no clue what is the
problem. All other users are still fine.

Any suggestions? The user is on a wireless home network.

TIA.

Is the HTTP request being sent over the Internet or over an internal
Intranet network. Are the users that are working fine running over the
Internet or Intranet.

I suspect your new user is not able to use Integrated authentication over
the Internet, and that failure would be by-design and unavoidable due to his
ISP/Network.

Integrated authentication requires a good connection that follows certain
rules. If the problematic user is using an ISP/Network that doesn't follow
the rules, he will get 401s and there is no way for IIS to be configured to
solve someone else's problem.

You may want to move to Basic over SSL to allow better compatibility with
authenticated Internet-based access. But that comes at the cost of exposing
username/password to the web server and potentially leaking it if you're not
careful.

David,

Basic over SSL is fine for me.

Thanks a lot.
