Hello all, I'm running a swiki server on a win2k machine. whenever someone opens an uploaded ms word document in IE, the server hangs, eating all the CPU time in the process. the document does appear in the IE window... but the swiki ceases to respond to http requests.
here's a log except showing the problem: 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:50:53 -0400] /tim ok 2813 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:50:56 -0400] /tim/1.upload ok 4253 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:51:14 -0400] /tim/1.attach tempMoved 717 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:51:14 -0400] /tim/1.upload ok 4534 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:51:17 -0400] /tim/1 ok 2865 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:51:19 -0400] /tim/uploads/1/test.doc ok 19456 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:51:23 -0400] /tim/uploads/1 tempMoved 454 Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider Cache Manager 18.202.0.149 - - [15/Oct/2001:20:51:25 -0400] /tim/uploads/1/test.doc ok 19456 Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider DAV 1.1 whenever it hangs, the last line in the log is always the "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider DAV 1.1" line. I assume that whatever this service is is sending some sort of screwy http request. I've seen this behavior on beta 11 and swiki 1.1 on several win2k boxes, being hit by a number of different IE 5.* clients (the particular version of IE I'm using to test at the moment is 5.50.4522.1800) I'm pretty new to this list, so this may be a well-known problem. And despite being a longtime swiki user and administrator, I have remarkably little squeak experience, so please speak slowly and use small words. Tim Gorton MIT Media Lab
