Here is a weird story/IIs bug. For 4 days production server was down, every thing look normal, no error on the log but the sites were behaving like under an external attack. It toke to serve a asp page up to 5 minutes and if we did not shut down the IIS after few hours the server become unaccessible and require power hard boot. We look every where found nothing (I was sure it is a virus or Trojan). By try and error we identified one site that cause the problem (there are more than 30 sites there).
Make the long story short we found a asp file with <pre></pre> with 480 CRLF in between. Don't ask me why the html programmer did it, I do not care, but if it is true it means that a simple html code can take down a server (even a user on a forum / form that allow to post text with html tags) Can some one test it? For some internal problems we will not have access to test server till Tuesday. And I am not daring to try it on production one more time. I am not even sure it is the problem. All we know is that the site with this asp file was causing the problem and I can not take them down one more time. thank Beny --- You are currently subscribed to activeserverpages as: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
