    - .CSV file does not open Excel I have a mixture of IIS 5.0, 5.1, and 6.0 giving inconsistant results when serving up a .csv page. Some of the servers are serving the page up and IE will open Excel and the page lookes like a normal spreadsheet. Other servers are loading the page as an HTML page, eventhough it has a .csv extension. While the page looks OK as HTML, it is not formatted into columns and rows to import into Excel. I have troubleshooted down to where it appears to be a server setting. Is there a MIME setting that needs to be made if you want to server a .csv page and have it opened as an Excel file within IE? Thanks! Tag: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364869

    - web folders http 405 error Hey folks, I can't seem to figure this one out and it recently cropped up, perhaps as a result of some recent IE security updates. I have a web folder that I am trying to access via a URL as <a href='https://domain/folder' folder='https://domain/folder' target='_blank'>Folder</a> that has always worked until recently. The webfolder opens just fine manually within IE, but not with the href as folder=. Has something recent changed? Any way to fix this?

    - Installing root certificate & chain Please excuse my loose expression but I am not IIS & PKI specialist. I need to establish SSL with root certificate from local CA. To do so, I need to install the root certificate chain on the server, so the client certificates can be accepted. I have the der encoded certificates in *=2Eder files. When I step through the Server Certificate wizard in IIS, Directory Security the options are: - Create a new certificate - Assign an existing certificate - Import a certificate from a Key Manager backup file If I choose the second options, the dialog lists the certificates in the repository. Maybe I can add the certificates from the chain to this repository? If I choose the third option, I need to create a Key Manager backup file. Is this possible? How can I start the Key Manager - I saw plenty of topics about it, but I don't see an executable with this name. Is this a separat=D0=B5 program? Or maybe I have to install MS Exchange - I think it has a feature with that name. Thaks all of you, I hope you can help me. Tag: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364858

    - Re-establishing communications with SQL Server after outage We have twice had our SQL Server unsuccessfully boot up on a reboot. After the SQL Server is back online, ASP.NET apps still are unable to access the SQL Server. Is this typical?

    - Problem: Delete Folder with IIS - Access Violation Hi, I am developing a Web Application, some parts of this application manage folders on the web site. When I send a DeleteFolder command (FileSystemObject) it succeeds and deletes the folder, however, the IIS process (in my case w3wp.exe) keeps a handle to this folder and actually does not allow re-creating the folder or accessing it. (closing the handles manually or restarting IIS resolves this). Why does this happen, and how can I avoide this? these are not virtual directories just folders located under the web site.

    - Inetinfo running at 100% Hello, I have a W2K server running the most currenty SP, with IIS installed (I have this same configuration on 6 servers on a Citrix Farm). On one server, the "inetinfo.exe" is running at 60-100% and causing terrible performance on that system. When I shut off the SMTP services, everything works great. There is no email in the que or any other of the mail folders in Inetpub. I only have one customer who's data resides on this server. When I move that customers .mdb file to another server, the problem moves with it! This customer's data file, other than being larger than most, is the same as all my other customer's files. Is it possible that port 25 is somehow being hijacked? Could it be hijacked through my customer's office somehow - someone relaying spam on my systems through my customers network??? Any tools/utilities you can recommend to help me track this problem down? Thank you all for your help! - Rob Tag: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364845

    - IIS system requirements and licensing Hi, I would like to enable IIS 6 on our Win 2003 server to develop ASP .NET applications. Prior to this update, I would like to estimate the hardware capacities used by ASP .NET and IIS 6. So, I'd like to have figures on : - How much memory and processor uses IIS 6 + ASP.NET without any active connections - What could be an order of (minimum/maximum) size for system usage (memory, processor...) for around 30 users working with ASP .NET applications (connection to SQL server 2000 databases). Concerning licensing : How works licensing for ASP .NET web applications? Is it the same as with standard Windows applications? Thanks a lot, Eric. Tag: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364841

    - ADSI - IIS Admin Objects I need to use the ADSI IIS Admin Objects to connect to IIS 5.x and IIS 6.x servers and retrieve the configuration. The problem is the Windows 2000 workstations that will be utilized do not have the IIS Admin console, so the IIS ADSI provider is not available. The end user does not have administrative rights to the machine and will not be allowed to install the IIS console. WMI is not an option, as 5.x servers are involved. Is there a way for me to create a VB script that is essentially standalone, and can be run from a workstation that does not have the IIS console? I'm thinking that I might be able to include the appropriate .dll or other files and reference them. Any other command line tools or alternatives to report on an remote IIS config? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Joe Tag: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364838

But now the IUSR and IWAM users have been removed. I addes these accounts manually but IIS is not happy with this. Is there a workaround to add these users back to this server?

    - Application pool shutdown - scheduled admin script reading metabase We are having an issue with the application pool being disabled due to rapid-fail protection. My best guess is that a routine admin script which is supposed to walk the metabase and copy the previous day's logs to an appropriately named folder on an archive box for stats, is locking the metabase. So far, I have been unsuccessful at correcting the problem. Basic situation is a stand alone shared hosting box set with each customer's sites being set up in an account specific application pool. (Might be more than one virtual server per application pool depending on the customer.) The application pools are set to shutdown worker processes after being idle 20 minutes. Some of the sites are just not very busy so they do shut down. And it is those which seem to be having the application pool failure. The W3svc log for every one that has failed shows no activity for an extended time. The System log shows Event ID 1009 five times in less than a second, ("A process serving application pool 'xxxxxxxx' terminated unexpectedly. The process id was '1604'. The process exit code was '0xffffffff'.") and is then followed by event 1002 shutting down the application pool. It looks like a spider, script kiddie or random visitor timed their request perfectly so the scheduled task was finishing. Last night, the Application pool failures were 9:08:26PM to 9:08:27PM. The scheduled task running the admin script started at 9:07:00 PM and was logged off at 9:08:30PM. Actually, it should have been done by 9:07:09PM -- that is when UPHClean logged an entry it had done cleanup. The script is using ADSI, nothing really strange, nothing that should be changing the metabase. But from the evidence of the crashing application pool, seems to be locking the metabase anyway. [section of code where it starts finding the sites -- just in case I am not explaining this script adequately] Set objW3SVC = GetObject("IIS://LOCALHOST/W3SVC") 'Walk through the metabase, and pick out web servers only. For Each objSITE in objW3SVC If objSITE.class = "IIsWebServer" Then servNum = objSITE.name For each port in objSITE.ServerBindings I could not see anything in the documentation indicating that this should be a concern. Can someone help and point me to relevant docs? Is there a read-only way to do this. Or is this a bug with ADSI and IIS 6? Are there alternatives that would avoid the locking? Thanks.

    - SSL with IIS 6 and Microsoft Cert Server I have installed IIS 6 and MS Cert Server on a Windows 2003 server. When I access the site via SSL from the server my certificate seems fine. My internal and external domain name is xyzcompany.com. I don't get any error messages when I am on my IIS server and try to access http://www.xyzcompany.com , but when I access it from any client they all get the prompt: --- Security Alert The security certificate has been issued by a company you have chosen not to trust. View the certificate to determine whether you want to trust the certifying authority. --- If I view the certificate and go through the wizard to install it in the "Trusted Root Certificate Authorities" I will still get prompted every time I visit my secured web page. If I go back to my IE clients and check my installed certificate, my certificate from my IIS site is not under the TRCA group or any other group. I know that I can install certificates on my clients without a problem form other sites because I see a bunch of new ones from other CAs. I have tried this from Win2000, XP, and 98 clients and none of them seem to be able to just install this certificate.

    - 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: IIS 4.0 snap-in 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!

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.

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: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364725

(big-5) However, when a user request to view a files with Chinese name, error 404 appears. Directory Browsing is enabled. The file with Chinese name would be shown as ??.html, instead of <chinese filename>.html. Would you please tell me how to make IIS to display chinese filename? Thanks in advanced!!

    - 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: IIS 4.0 snap-in 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? Thanks in advance for the help!

    - Win2003 SP1 & FP Server Extensions I am running Windows 2003 Server and just recently applied SP1. Now, I can no longer "Administer" the FP extension. I can add/remove without a problem, but when I click the site name to administer it, I get the authentication dialog and then authentication fails. 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. I am lost, and I need to get the extensions back up and running. There is no problem with IIS serving the pages. Any suggestions?? -- Regards, Steve Topilnycky Top Cat Computing http://www.topcatcomputing.com/ Tag: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364679

    - Authentication I am running some applications in IIS 6, and it is required that I use the client's credentials, thus negating the use of Anonymous Authentication. In my development environment, I am running IIS 5 and I can run the applications using Windows Integrated Authentication, but when I push the applications into production II 6, the only way I can get the applications to run is to use Digest Authentication, which prompts the client for login everytime a piece of information is retrieved. Any ideas on why I can't use Windows Integrated Authentication? Thomas Tag: IIS 4.0 snap-in Tag: 364672
