Hello everybody,
I have a problem with a WinNT4 Server:
The WWW Publishing Service stops sometimes without any direct reason. It
only stops and nothing else.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks.
Regards
Christian

I've been having the same problem. It started after I began publishing
pages from codecharge to my server. Otherwise it's been up and running 100%
for the past 12-18 months. Code Charge technical support is adement that
it's NOT their software causing the service to stop.
Currently I have a batch file looping to "net start World Wide Publishing
Service" -- which makes sure it immediately is online once it shuts down.
But it does kill current sessions and requires them to relog back on.
I've reinstalled IIS, Reapplied My Service pack 6a, and also reinstalled my
ODBC drivers which I upgraded to 2.60 to get my webserver to talk to my SQL
server for codecharge. Nothing else has changed.
Send me an email and let me know what the machine's "role" is.. currently,
mine is Nt4, sp6a -- running as a BDC -- running exchange, and IIS. I'm
also using Outlook Web Access on this same computer. My SQL server is a
different server.

Do you use PHP running as ISAPI on your IIS?
If so: Sudden stops of the WWW Publishing Service are a known problem of PHP
ISAPI. You could consider switching to PHP CGI (php.exe instead of
phpisapi.dll in script mapping, see PHP manual) or changing the Web Server
software (Apache instead of IIS).
You may find more information about that in the PHP newsgroups (see
www.zend.com for an archive)

Looks like the "CodeRed Worm"
Informations in German are avaible at: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/data/lab-07.08.01-001/

you know - the secondary code-red worm is called "the IIS shutdown bug". It
causes web services to shut down without log entries as to why - etc.
Applying 6a is only part of the solution - there are two other vulnerability
patches you must load....
Just a thought

I believe that ODBC driver upgrade is not necessary on the server, just on
the client machine running CodeCharge.
In CodeCharge, the publishing process is equivalent to copying files from
local folder to a network folder (since you're publishing to the network).
Such operation by itself may cause issues if the files/programs on the
server are accessed by users at the same time. The issue would usually be
that you may get file permission error and can't overwrite it. However,
possibly in your case there is some other instability/driver problem that
causes the server to shutdown when files are being overwritten while in use.
Please try generating files locally and copying them manually to the server,
then see if you still have problems.

Adam,
Well, I DOOOO need the odbc drivers on the server -- I'm utilizing a SQL
server on a different machine.
This has gone away... not sure what the problem was... maybe it was just
poor timing...
