I have a number of web apps running on several IIS6/Server 2003 boxes. They run well and are happy. They are all asp.net web apps and use .NET 3.5. What, if any, would be valid reasons for contemplating moving the web apps to IIS7/Server 2008? ...
I'm trying to setup an alert to let me know via email (SMTP) when free disk space on one of my servers is less than a specified value. To do this I'm using PerfMon alerts, as described at MSFT Technet. I have the alert working and writing to the system log, but when I try to set it to 'Run Program' it fails. The log alert fires but the p...
We are running a website using Active Server Pages & COM+ components. The ASP pages call COM+ components which in turn communicates with external systems and respond to ASP page requests. We find that the application becomes slow over a period of time and requires restarts (like in couple of days). The website runs on good hardware and ...
I manage a small group of Windows Server 2003 computers. ONE of the the servers is NOT performing the same as the others. I expect that I have not set the folder and share permissions the same as the others. I want to be able to create a text document containing the share and folder permissions from each server so I can them use a...
Our company currently runs two Windows 2003 servers (a web server & a MSSQL 8 database server). We're planning to add another couple of servers for redundancy / availability purposes in a web farm setup. Our web sites are predominately ASP.NET, we do have a few PHP sites, but these are mainly static with no DB. Does anyone who has been ...
StackOverflow, you're my only hope! I am unfortunate enough to have inherited an ASP.NET 3.5 application roughly 3/4 in development. This project uses Crystal Reports Basic for VS 2008 to generate a PDF file from a data source. Pretty straightforward. Anyway, this project compiles and runs fine on my development machine (VS 2008), but ...
I get this error when using c:>route add <route_and_interface_here> This happens on a RRAS server that has a PPTP site-to-site VPN setup with demand-dialing static route. This route shows in RRAS routing table but does not show in c:>route print table which might be the first source of the problem. Anyone seen this before? Anyone with ...
We recently upgraded our intranet dev server (Windows Server 2003) to the latest and greatest patches, including 2k3 sp2 and the latest for each version of .NET. We have a variety of technologies that we use, including COM+, ASP, ASP.NET 1.1, ASP.NET 2.0, and ColdFusion. So testing can be, well, interesting, as those technologies don't ...
Environment: win2003 running IIS6 serving asp pages that call delphi code. Delphi code contacts a c# webservice for which it needs to login (login.asmx). Webservice logs show login is successful. Debug results show that Context.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated returns true. After login, delphi code doublechecks if it is still authenticate...

I have a headless server running Windows Server 2003, and administer it via VNC. It is set to auto login to a specific user account. I want to change to using Remote Desktop/Terminal Services. However, when I log in remotely a new user session is created (in addition to auto logged in session). Essentially I want a remote desktop connec...
Hi, We have a 32-bit application that launches other 32-bit applications during its process. The application is working fine on other 64-bit platforms but on Windows Server 2003 64-bit, we get an error trying to launch the apps: error 193 (not a valid 32 bit application) We can manually launch these applications on that system withou...
Hi All, I'm having an issue with CruiseControl.net where the web dashboard just won't work in IIS. I have tried switching ASP.Net between 64 and 32 bit modes and reinstalling cruise control, but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else had issues with CruiseControl.Net on 64 bit platforms? Cheers, Jamie [Edit] Thought I should clarify, ...
I'm running windows 2003 as a workstation and I was wondering if there are any good free anti virus programs for it. I liked AVG free but that doesn't work on 2003. So are there any alternatives and if so, which ones have you tried and like best? EDIT: Just to be clear it needs to be free and not a trial, else the best option for me ...
I have a rather legacy application EXE written in VB6 and running on a Windows 2000 server that uses RDS (Remote Data Services) to access a business object DLL (also written in VB6) running on a Windows 2003 server. The DLL has never run on this server (we're moving the component off the old W2K server), but it is registered and defined...
An application is hanging occasionally, and I would like to see the dump at the time to figure it out. I had written an application that the user can run to automatically create a dump that I can look at. However I can't seem to get the users to remember to run it when it hangs, no matter what I try. They always end up closing the progra...
I created a windows service that's basically a file watcher that wont run unless a user is logged into the machine its on. The service is running on a Windows Server 2003 machine. It is designed to move the files that are put into one directory into a different directory based on keywords in the file names, but none of the files move u...
Today our virtual W2003 server storing our SVN repository (too) became very-very busy. It turned out that it had only 88KB free space left on the C: drive. Not that good. Due to access problems, the only way we could reboot it by killing the busy processes from task manager (McAffee, SqlServer, services.exe) and then gracefully reboot. W...
I have an ASP.Net 3.5 website running in IIS 6 on Windows Server 2003 R2. It is a relatively small internal application that probably serves less than ten users at any given time. The server has 4 Gig of memory and shows that 3+ Gig is available while the site is active. Just minutes after restarting the web application Performance mo...

I'm trying to find the best way to automatically delpoy a server, which installs the OS, software dependencies that I have (for example SQL server, .net framework + my own application code).
