world wide web publishing service cannot be started automa..

Hi! Hope some of you have seen this weird problem before. I have IIS
running on Win2000 server, somehow the startup type of WWW Publishing
service is always "disabled" -- If I change it to "manual" or
"automatic", the next time when server reboots, it's changed back to
"disabled". As a result, the service never starts up automatically
after server reboot. I also tried changing the startup type in
registry, but it didn't work either.
Both WWW Publishing and SMTP are dependent on IIS Admin service.
However, SMTP and IIS Admin can be set to "automatic" and they start
up fine after server reboot.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Quan,

If your server is crashing or hanging you might want to
download our ReJuvin8 tool. It's free for the first
15-days. It can keep your site running despite problems.

It's designed to detect problems then restart or reboot.
It can restart ANY programs, services, or processes in
precise order. It doesn't fix bugs but it does give you some
breathing room while you are finding them. ReJuvin8 also
gives you email and telephone alert messages and graphic
status reports.

It can also test, alert, and report on URLs running anywhere
on any server on your net connection. So if you use multiple
servers you can use them to watch each other, too.

ReJuvin8 has both an automatic and a custom mode. In the
auto mode you make all the settings by pointing and
clicking. This will handle most applications.

The custom mode uses heartbeat synch files to get absolute
detection that key processes are working. Tools and
instructions are provided to help you do this. We also offer
customization as a contract service.
