About three days ago my IIS log files began having a padding of null (00 hex) values following the most recent log entry. It is very strange as the count of these null entries has viared from 5KB to as high as 63KB and changes minute by minute. When the server closes the log and starts a new one at the end of the day these null values disappear from the closed log but reappear in the new log. Further, there is occasionally a single newline character.
This started occuring several days ago before a service interruption and that days log has many null character entries interspersed within the entrys, not all collected at the end of the log.
I have tried:
- Stopping and starting the service
- Stopping the service, deselecting logging from
the service, renaming the current log, and
restarting the service then restarting the log
- Rebooting the server
Nothing has rid me of this scourge.
Other than this, the Web server is running fine.
Anyone have similar experience or know a fix?
