Pages not loading correctly

Hi All,

I am running a Win 2k (sp4) server which runs our IIS
services and nothing else.

One of our sites (my company's intranet site) is taking a
long time to load (5 - 10min). If you stop the page
loading and start it again, it usually loads immediatley.

I have restarted the IIS services and restarted the server
a couple of times which fixes the problem for a while, but
the problem keeps reoccuring. The web pages have not
changed for a couple of weeks. There does not appear to
be any errors in the event logs. Does anyone have an
ideas about where I can look to solve this problem?

I am also having a problem with one of our sites on the
same IIS server. It just does not load, even though the
code has not changed lately. Any ideas?

Thanks for any help you may be able give me!

First off are you running ASP/Access Databases on the server? If so try the
following:

If you are running ASP/Access databases on your IIS Server one of the first
things to
have a look at is compacting your Access Databases if the sites that are
going off line
with out any notice. If you use the databases very often that they tend to
"Corrupt"
every once in a while. Be very sure that you Compact all of the Databases
that are on the server and for each one that you run the Compact tool on
that you then check the Rights on the file AFTER you run the Compact tool, I
have found that each time I run the tool it resets the IUSR account back to
Read only and if you are allowing some sort of Writing to the database you
need the Write permission. Be sure you get all of the Access databases
because just one bad database can take all the ASP/Access sites offline.

Before you use the Compact tool take note of the size of your database in
Kb's, and when you are done notice that most of your databases will be much
smaller in size, I've had some go from being 1.28 Mb's to 148 Kb's. You
will find the Compact and Repair tool by first having your Access database
open and on the "Tools", then "Database Utilities" tab on your Tool bar, and
then click on the "Compact and Repair Database" and it will run, there is
nothing else to do your done.

Again be sure you find and Compact ALL of the databases and check each one
for their permission after you Compact or you will be hearing from each of
your clients that they have a problem writing to the database.

Have a good one,

Carroll
