IIS 6 does'n write log files
Hi all,
I have two Windows 2003 Servers with load balancing enabled (but it is
currently switched off). On the servers are running five web sites. I
configured and enabled access logging for all of them, but only one
writes logs actually. Has anybody out there seen a similar effect?

It's still not working. The mail should be sent from the machine to another

Instead it just hangs there in the drop folder forever. Is there a document

ASP Application frequent Restarts on IIS6.0 in IIS5 Compatibility mode
Hello,
According to the docs I have read so far, the cause of ASP application to restart is when global.asa gets modified e.g. by backup program or antivirus.
I have set global.asa to read only but the ASP session still restarts. There is nothing in the event log that tells why it happens either. How do I troubleshoot and find out the cause of the frequent restart of the application?
The effect of the restart is the Application variables in ASP gets reset. One of the variables saved into the Application is the time it was first started and this is how we can tell that the app has been restarted. I believe when this happens all sessions are also cleaned out and people must login again etc.
Thanks in advance for any tips Tag: test please ignore Tag: 304558
IIS not working properly
Hi,
IIS works fine for around 10 mins then I must restart the
machine. The main problem is that it works both with asp
and htm files within those 10 mins, after that, just works
with htm files (sends error 500 every time i try to access
an asp). First I had it on winxp and now changed to w2k
server and the problem remains, I believe it's some kind
of worm or virus.

[IIS 5.0] iisreset.exe fails with error 0x425
My nightly "iisreset.exe /restart" Scheduled Task failed last night with error 425:

Result: The task completed with an exit code of (425).
This left my clients' sites *stopped*. Ack!
I've edited the task as follows "iisreset.exe /RESTART /REBOOTONERROR /TIMEOUT:100" to lower the risk associated with such an error.
But I still need to explain to the client the reason for the error. Can anyone point me in the direction of a list of exit codes for iisreset.exe and their meanings?

CreateObject problem
Hi all! :O)
First of all, my apologies if I'm in the wrong group, please let know where
else I should post this.
I've been trying the following code in a simple web page :
<html>
<script language=vbscript>
Dim dl
Set dl = CreateObject("DataLinks")
On Error Resume Next
Call MsgBox(dl.PromptNew.ConnectionString)
</script>
</html>
If run the page from my wwwroot folder it crash on the CreateObject()
statement, telling me that it can't create the ActiveX component. BUT if I
run it from anywhere else on my computer (from the desktop for example) it
works correctly.
We tried on Apache (by Linux) and we've got the same result.
Does any one has an idea of what's going on?

Web Server performace while uploading
Hey all,
I have a website that is used to upload video via http (Dundas Upload
Component combined used with ASP). The webite is hosted on one
machine and the videos that are uploaded are stored on another machine
on our network. In IIS, I have a virtual directory setup on my web
server that points to the video storage machine. When the videos are
uploaded by the client they automatically get put on the storage
machine via the virtual directory.
My question is, by using a virtual directory on my web server, am I
causing my web server more traffic than if I were to hardcode the UNC
path (\\machinename\directory) into my code and not use a virtual
directory?

IIS4 on windows 2000 server intermittantly hanging
I am using IIS4 and Window 2000 Server, I have 3 virtual directories under
the default website each of which is configured to have "application
protection high (isolated)". I have the same website running under each of
these using the exact same asp pages, each site is for a different country.
2 of the sites run without any problem but one of them (the one with the
highest usage) hangs intermittantly. I have installed IISSTATE and left it
running to attempt to get a debug trace of what happens but it has never
output anything. I notice in task manager that one of the DLLHOST.EXE
processes was using 1,888,260K of mem compared to the other DLLHOST.EXE
processes which were only using 20,000K. I have checked and the code on each
of these sites is exactly the same. I also have another server running
another 3 countries at a different location which has a very similar loading
in terms of usage, ie one site getting the major load, but I have had no
problem with this server. Does anybody have any ideas what could happening
what I could do to find out.
I'm using ASP for all pages.

IIS runas Different User
Hi,
i have the problem, that i need to list the users in an
Active Directory via ASP Page. And i need to do this with
LDAP not WinNT Command.
The Problem is, this only works if i run then page
directly on the webserver connection to
http://localhost/test.asp. If somebody else in the network
visits this site, he gets an internal server error because
the server authenticates towards active directory
as "Anonymous" or "I_User" or so an though has not enought
rights to list AD entries.
Is there any possibility to tell IIS under which user to
run a certain page or web?

MS Access Driven Sites quit functioning.
I have an 2003 Server that is hosting about 8 websites. 5-
6 of these website are driven by access databases.
Typically the websites are fairly efficient and work
dependably, however about every 4-5 days the websites that
have access intigrated in them just quit responding. You
type their URL in and the browser just sits there. The
websites that don't have Access tied in to them continue
to function perfectly. When this happens I have to reboot
the server and then everything seems to be okay again. I
have tried checking the event viewer and the server logs
and can find no error messages of any sort. The server is
a Dual Athlon 1Ghz MP with 512MB PC2100DDR Registered Ram.

Uninstalled SUS (URL scan); certain virtual directories do not work
I installed Software Update Services (SUS SP1) on our Intranet server
(IIS5.0). This process installs IIS Lockdown tool and URLscan. I did
not like it on that server. I uninstalled SUS which had installed the
IIS lockdown tool and URLScan. I manually uninstalled URLScan.
However, there must be something else that I must undo because my
INTRANET site does not work. One symptom is that my include
statements do not work with relative referencing notation like the
double dots and slashes to traverse the folder structure. Also, I
have a web folder for an application that requests authentication per
my Frontpage permissions for that web folder. If you authenticate
correctly, you are redirected to an asp page. However, the server
responds with the HTTP 500 error or the HTTP 404 error.
Has anyone experienced this before? Or know what is going on?

Error 500
Hello all - we have a serious problem as described below. Can anyone please
help ?
Hardware / Software setup:
- Three servers in Microsoft Application Center 2000 SP1 cluster running
Window 2000 Server SP4.
- SQL Server 2000 SP3 cluster with failover mechanism.
The solution is implemented with standard ASP and all database
communications goes through COM and COM+ objects programmed in Visual Basic
6.
The problem:
When running the web application in Internet Explorer we get a "HTTP 500 -
Internal server error" in pages that we know works fine. When the problem
arises it will occur at all three servers in large numbers. One way to stop
the error is to kill the dllhost.exe containing our COM-components in one of
the machines manually. A weird thing is that if the service is killed in one
machine the errors will stop in all three servers in the cluster.
It has been observed that when the server is parsing the ASP-page, the
number of lines processed is decreasing the longer the error has existed (in
time). To clarify: In the start of the error cycle the ASP-parser is able to
process ASP files with a large number of lines, but the number of lines it
can parse decreases during the error cycle and at the end the parser cant
even process an ASP-file with just a few lines of code.
The problem only exists in the productive system and neither in development
nor test, so it must be related to load on the system?

Symptom : The page is waiting for 20 seconds and then displays "0" on a

I tested the server and found that a simple form method=post script would
not work, so the problem must be configuration on the server. The rights is

nothing. Posting the form to a remote site from this one works, but not to

Images load slowly, but only from one location
I have an odd problem. Our sites are hosted at a colo facility. When we
access the sites from our office, often times, images will load very slowly.
If I check the same sites from home, everything loads fine. Here are some
particulars:
- We used to host the sites locally
- Its not always the same images that are the 'stragglers'
- Out of 15 images, there might be 1-5 stragglers that take 5-6 seconds more
to load than the others
- I've tried changing references from <img src="images/xyz.jpg"> to <img
src="http://www.mysite.com/iamges/xyz.jpg"> to no avail
- I've put a manual entry in my hosts file to eliminate DNS from the mix.
- Other sites hosted by this company load fine
My instinct is that there is something buried in some code somewhere (a dll
perhaps?) that is making a hard reference to one of my servers, but since
the code is no longer "local" to my network, the server stutters a step or
two before moving along to buisness as usual. If anyone has any ideas of
where I can investigate, I would greatly appreciate it.
