IIS/ASP Locking Source Files

IIS/ASP Locking Source Files

am 16.07.2005 00:31:15 von Brad Baker

I've got a Windows 2000 server running IIS to host a small intranet for my
company. This week my server died on me and I've spent all day building a
new one. Most of the pages use ASP to pull data from FoxPro tables using a
DSN connection. When it page loads, it seems to lock the file it is pulling
data from for several minutes. This is a problem because the source files
are being constantly updated and the program that I use to update the files
keeps returning with an "access denied" error. This didn't happen on the
old server. I luckily had all the pages backed-up so the coding is not
different. I've tried disabling the IIS cache with no luck. I'm using the
lastest MDAC and all the patches/updates for Win 2000 are applied. Any help
would be appreciated as I'm trying to get this back up and running before I
leave on vacation next week.

Thanks,
Brad
