Memory Usage Increases Incrementally with New Webs
This article was previously published under Q201872
When you create a large number of FrontPage Webs on a computer running
Internet Information Server (IIS) 2.0 or IIS 3.0, Inetinfo.exe uses all of
the server's RAM.
Note: The number of Webs will vary, based on the size of each web
and the amount of RAM on the server.
Every time a new Web is created in FrontPage, a call to the function
InetInfoSetAdminInformation from Infoadmn.dll is made, causing some memory
to be consumed. With each new Web, more calls to the function are made,
increasing the memory consumption until you run out.
Upgrade to IIS version 4.0 or later.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
Memory usage increases with each new Web that is created. The size of the
increase in memory is proportional to the number of Webs present. You will
eventually run out of Virtual Memory and the computer will stop
responding. You can restart the IIS computer when the memory runs low (as
a temporary fix); however, this will not prevent the problem from
happening again.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions
- Microsoft FrontPage 98 Standard Edition
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
