I'd agree as well.. VB (although ugly), seems a more stable platform for ASP in the last few years.
I check bugzilla logs every couple months hoping someone has found a resolution for 5.8 or a new build has fixed it, but nothing is moving on this issue -- That I can see. For anyone listening that can do anything about it, I'd be happy to provide a test II6 6 webserver and malfunctioning ASP pages if needed to debug the issue(s). :) The one thing that I see is that you can mask the issue if you set your "Application Pool" "Web Garden" "Maximum Number of worker Processes" (->Performance tab on the Application Pool Properties Page) higher (defaults to 1 -- setting it to 5 masks the problem to display after 5 hits to the ASP page) .. It's still an issue, but the problemed Redirect / COM Object usage only throws the '0240' Exception after the 5th time (for 5 times) instead of every other time and get recycled every x minutes (maybe before another user hits it). I mention this because it's a symptom of the overall problem, not a fix -- hopefully useful to someone that can fix it. P.S. I'm currently getting the '0240' while creating a COM object (COM graphing tool) as well as on Redirects to 3 different servers $Server->Transfer(); blows chunks as well.

I need to do some enhancement on a couple of asp/perl apps, but there is no point in going any further with perl if this cannot be resolved. Can anybody add anything that might help? ---------8<---------- Mark, Not goimg to add anything that will help, but echoing the problem since AS are remarkbly quiet on this issue. I gave up with 5.8. On my machine I got the ASP 0240 error with just this:- <%@ Language=PerlScript %> <HTML> <HEAD> <LINK rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Misc.css"> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=black> </BODY> </HTML> However in this instance I copied an existing asp and renamed the file to LuckyDraw.asp and ran it with the localhost URL. I was going spare, but remembered the redirect episode and reinstalled Perl to 5.6. There is a definite problem with 5.8, I for one would like to hear from AS what progress has been made with the bug fix.
