Internet Information Services 6.0 log file entries may not be sorted in chronological order on a Windows Server 2003-based computer
If a race condition occurs on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based computer, the Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 log file entries may not be sorted in chronological order. For example, entries that are recorded at 12:59:59 may appear before entries that are recorded at 12:59:58.
This behavior is expected. To improve performance, the Http.sys driver sacrifices the guaranteed order of entries in the IIS log files. Http.sys is a kernel-mode driver that was introduced in Windows Server 2003.
This behavior may affect tools that you use to analyze the IIS log files because many tools presume that the log file entries are in chronological order.
To work around this behavior, sort the IIS log file entries by using the date and the time before you analyze the log files.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Internet Information Services 6.0
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.
