Hello Folks: Our ASP.Net 2.0 web app was running happily along on Windows Server 2003. We were starting to see some of the limits of the environment approaching, such as memory and CPU usage spikes, and as we're getting ready to scale we decided it was time for a larger server with higher availability. We decided to move to Windows Se...

One of this fails: The web app is more or less a search-engine, giving a 404 or 500 (thanks to your google-advisor ...) when there weren't any results or the data-container is not loaded yet.
