Title: RE: [imail] IWEBMSG HANGS

Being a Government system, we ran that drill when it came out, so I'm sure that's not what's my problem although it maybe others - good idea.

virus check ?

 

also, you may want to install microsoft's "URLSCAN" on your system ;-(

 

I was hit with that "RED" worm thingy, a few months back, and had the same symptoms.

I have moved all of my graphics off of the server (which has at most 15-20 users at any given time) and I still have these issues of 'whatever it is' throwing my dual PIII monster "over-the-edge"

Are there any other suggestions out there?

I was working with Ron/Humankind on this - he was VERY helpful

We determined that the server was just overloaded and the extra overhead of the Killer Templates was pushing it over the edge

The templates use DHTML and lots of graphics.

Ron suggested moving all the services OFF the IMail machine - such as serving all the KWM graphics from a different server

I did not have the resources to do this

My system has been rock solid for days and days when I used to get hourly crashes

My users hate the stock templates though!!!

I was reading the Imail forum and a couple of postings claim that Imail is
not the problem with the IWEBMSG service hanging but that the KillerWebMail
templates are causing the problem.  When they removed the templates the
service runs rock solid.

Does anyone know if HumanKind has done any looking into this?  If it's their
templates that cause the problem, I think they certainly should be looking
into the problem.  There are a lot of organizations having this same problem
and everyone seems to be blaming IPswitch.  My 2 cents on the subject.

I have the same problem, but recently setup Enterprise Monitor which
monitors the service and restart it when it hangs.  It's better than
recycling the service 4 times a day.
