Good Evening,

I have one server with four Web sites. There is default
Web site and three virtual web sites.

When IIS is restarted the default Web site and FTP site
starts without any problem. However, the virtual Web sites
do not start. Is there a way to set an auto start property
for the virtual Web sites?

I do not need the iis recycle tool we use it and when IIS
is restarted the virtual web sites remain stopped.

Additional information:

w2k OS sp3.
Each site uses an unique IP without host headers.

How many virtual apps do you have?
Is IIS complaining about a corrupt metabase?(This can be a cause that
starting all sites, would be interrupted)

If you go to the UI and "start" those websites, they should auto-restart
from that point on. Only thing I can think of is that your selection of the
website to autostart was never persisted to disk and hence lost on
reboots/crashes.

To be sure the settings are saved to disk (so that the settings are really
saved), run:
NET STOP IISADMIN /y & NET START W3SVC to restart IIS (do not use IISRESET
to do this).
