Geoffrey, *********** When I receive the error for 'UseAutomaticPathSessions', I am using wkcgi.exe. *********** Thank you for your last response, but I must be honest, it has made me a bit nervous. I am a bit concerned about you last comment 'The unfortunate fact is, neither the ISAPI interface nor wkcgi.exe are solid, stable, proven solutions at this point.' I have been testing against wkcgi.exe for several months and have seen better performance and reliability than webkit.cgi. What has been reported that makes it unreliable? Are there security concerns?

But it certainly shouldn't get stuck in an infinite loop if it can't contact the appserver. The unfortunate fact is, neither the ISAPI interface nor wkcgi.exe are solid, stable, proven solutions at this point. I've added this bug report to the Sourceforge bug tracker, and hopefully the author (Jay Love) can take a look at it soon. If you have a C compiler handy you could also look into it yourself. But certainly, if you don't need the additional speed, your most solid solution on IIS is definitely to use WebKit.cgi. You could convert it to an EXE using py2exe or Installer to gain a small amount of additional speed. - Geoff _______________________________________________ Webware-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-devel
