What happened?

 

and why?

 

Hi Chaps

My Apologies for the outage...

I am going to try to get an update on what actually went wrong shortly, but...

a HUGE thank you to Phil Daws (ex ScoobyNet Webby) for sorting it out. Phil put in loads of effort to get it back up as soon as possible while I was out at Bruntingthorpe today doing the group test for ScoobyNews.

Thank you Phil!!

Best regards

Simon

Thank the lord that it's back now

Didn't miss it.

The Valium, Lithium and Prozac kicked in after a while.

server was fine, but IIS seemed to have died - seen this a few times, usually when the IIS admin service dies. A quick iisreset does the trick. there is also a link to the size of inetinfo/dllhost processes and IIS dieing - memory leaks are abundant under windows. best bet would be to do an iisreset every now and then when the processes grow.

cheers Phil for sorting.

You're good at double-dutch then.

Totally non it-person!

IIS was fine. There was a problem with dynamic content only. All static web pages were fine.

Unfortunately I couldn't get into the server remotely in order to restart it or do an iisreset.

Cheers

Well - thanks to all who sorted it out.

It's amazing how much you want something when you can't have it.
