Try this one with IIS... In you INetPub/wwwRoot folder put a file named
Global.asa
Look into the documentation for ASP to discover it's true purpose. Anyway,
by replacing this file while IIS is running ALL sessions will be abandoned.
Maybe that can help free up the system.
DCOMCNFG.. On Win/NT/2000? click start run and then DCOMCNFG. Once you see
the displays and content you should be able to get a sense of it's purpose.
Basically, it will maintain setting that control who COM objects are run.
Debugging in IIS is done in many ways. Even though tools and utilities are
available I have simply developed VBScript that I include in the web pages.
This script allows me to not only turn debugging on and off, but sends
diagnostic information regarding Request.QueryString, Request.Form and
Session.Contents values. If I need to see contents of runtime variables, I
just Response.Write them in the resulting page.
Here's a sample piece of VBScript code to send the Request.Form variables
and values to the browser.
For Each sName In Request.Form
Response.Write sName & "=" & Request.Form(sName) & "<br>"
Next
I hope you are taking advantage having IIS include your VBScript routines
performing the CA/400 COM functions. I suggest you create a folder outside
of wwwRoot, store your reusable code there and use a Virtual directory to
reference it. I have also version stamped the includes and simply change
the setting in the web site settings. Here's a includes statement, just in
case you have seen one before:
<!--#Include virtual="ASPIncludes/CMI/Session.asp"-->

Hi Ken,
Whoa! You're way ahead of me there. What's DCOMCNFG? Where would I change
the ASPAllowOutOfProcess metabase entry were I so inclined? Is it even
possible on IIS 3.0 (some of us can't afford to get too close to the
bleeding edge)?
For the moment at least, I've solved my particular problem by fiddling with
the registry (see earlier post). But I'll keep your potential solution in
mind.
BTW, how can I debug my VB CGI program when it's running in the IIS process
space? So far I've been using the ancient method of having the program log
certain data to a file, like use the RPG DEBUG or DSPLY op code.
Another problem is when the VB program gets an error while running under
IIS. It gets stuck as a separate task that the NT task manager won't let me
kill. Starting and stopping the Web Publishing service doesn't get rid of
it. Logging off and on doesn't get rid of it. I have to reboot to get rid
of
it. Have you run into that little problem?
Sorry if this is getting a little off topic.
TIA,
Peter Dow
