"The worker process does crash every now and again" That's the w3wp process, right?
Our server, running IMail and WSUS, displays a crash message a few times a week regarding w3wp. adamc -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Keith Johnson Sent: Wednesday, June 20, 2007 22:32 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] 2006.2 web messaging nightmare Tripp, Thanks for the email. I have been posting up the forum as well as been running Preview 3 since it came out. However, I still get 4005 events just about every 30 min. We have over a 1000 users, about 3/4 active on web mail. This server takes in about 80K inbound emails and about 10 outbound. I haven't really had to restart IIS. The worker process does crash every now and again. Unfortunately, when the worker process goes down, IISAdmin and WWW is usually still up thus ASP is hung and there really is no monitoring for that. We have monitors on the outside ensuring the web site is up via keywords on the screen as well as triggers on key services to alert us of issues. We are rolling to RC1. However, I have adjusted some files since Preview 3 to address some minor issues reported on the forum, thus I am running most of the fixes. I was hoping the 4005's would be gone between Preview 3 and RC1. I know the editor was re-written to deal with 'snail' typing. I plan on rolling it up this weekend.

For .21 we changed the architecture so we are no longer using a COM object from .NET (which appears to have caused many of the problems) and we dropped the FTB edit control which appeared to be causing issues as well. We have people running the technical preview that previously were having to restart IIS frequently (large, high web user installations) that have been running preview 3 for a couple of weeks and have not had to restart IIS since loading. Note that the new edit control now supports HTML messages in Safari as well.

Most read: Event code: 4005 Event message: Forms authentication failed for the request. Reason: The ticket supplied has expired. Thanks for the update. Keith _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of John T (lists) Sent: Wed 6/20/2007 4:02 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] 2006.2 web messaging nightmare Yes, when Imail 2006.2 was released and many started to use it, including installations on high volume or heavily used servers, the webmail bugs started to show themselves. As an example, I was running the preview for Imail 2006.2 on my server and had no errors or problems whatsoever. However my server is low volume. After its release, when I installed it on a high volume client server with users all over the place the problems arose. As of right now, Imail 2006.21 RC1 is installed on my server and on my client's high volume server and so far no errors have been seen or reported. The preferences.config file is in each users file directory and is used by webmail to set how the user wants certain things. If it does not exist, that means the user has never changed anything from default and that is fine, although in some cases having a preferences.config file even if everything is default settings has helped.

I have a client with 800 accounts saying they're going to leave the platform because they're constantly getting logged out. I can't actually reproduce the probem here and am having a hard time tracking down their browser settings because they're across the country. Are there any temporary workarounds? What's the preferences.config fix? What is the ETA on 2006.21? I know it's in RC1 status, but we need it FAST FAST FAST! I really think Ipswitch should start publishing a KNOWN ISSUES list with every release, and constantly keep it updated as things arise. Forget scaring off potential customers, they WANT to see this stuff. Be more concerned with taking care of the many customers you already have! I looked through the forums and boards before upgrading to this version, which was released on March 6th I think, before upgrading our system. I saw a reference here and there, but it didn't sound like the widespread revolt that I'm experiencing!

I and others have been testing with beta 3 (oops, meant preview 3) and so far things are looking to be fixed. The couple of issues I saw were either quickly resolved by simple code changes or by updating the preferences.config file or by having the user update their browser.

Many of our users are being logged out of web messaging when they send an email. I've waited a week for some solution from tech support/development with a final answer of downgrade to 2006.1 or await a new release. Neither of those are solutions because downgrading doesn't give me much confidence to upgrade and awaiting a new release will likely cost us business. I've searched the forums and we are not the only ones experiencing this problem and I hope that you can step in and get development to fix this ASAP.
