Is it IIS or Win2KServer?

[NightWatcher]

I'm having problems running several ASP scripts, and they run well in other servers, so I went on uninstalling IIS (even deleted the INetPub dir) and reinstalled IIS again, the problem continues.
Some ASP files run well, but some do not, and those who don't run in my server, run just fine in other Win2K Servers, so what's is going on with my server?
Is it a problem of IIS or Win2K?
I'm beginning to suspect that it's Win2K, as I just installed IIS and it still don't run those ASP's, even whorse, no error is reported, it just sits there.

Please, does anyone knows what to do?

Thank you.

I had a similar problem with mine. The asp pages were very slow to serve, sometimes up to 60 sec. I have no idea where the problem had come from. My only solution was to completely reload the server from scratch. It was faster than trying to figure out what was wrong (I already wasted a day on that).

Thanks Pistol..

That has actually crossed my mind many times, but I'm still looking for an alternative, as the server now includes loads of software, that will take well over a day to replace/config.

I failed to understand why I haven't found the answer yet, as there are many people with the same problem.

The answer must be out there.

I think that it is a common issue. Because of time constraints the only option for me was to reload it. Check your database connections, I know there are issues with some database connections that may error out or slow down the pages. If you are useing ODBC you may want to rethink it, and consider a different connection such as OLE. If you are using Access you may want to dump it and switch to SQL.

In addition to the databases I had an ASP "Chat Room" that was not using a database, this page too was very slow to load and respond.

Check out Microsoft Tech Net to see if you can find anything else, otherwise I am in the dark as much as you

We are using ACCESS DB's, that's widespread trought all our clients, but they are accessed with no problems at all, by the Microsoft Jet OLEDB 4.0 driver, also no slowdowns here.

Are you using IIS 5.0 in Win2KServer?
And, do you have SP1/2 on it?

Thanks.
