"Server too busy" (ASP files only)

[Webmaster]

Today, my IIS server was responding to all requests for ASP pages with
"HTTP 1.1/Server Too Busy" error messages, but Performance Monitor shows
usage peaking somewhere around 10% CPU (average is under 1% CPU usage),
and regular HTML pages all load fine.

Bandwidth usage is quite low (peak doesn't seem to exceed 40Kbps,
average usage well under 15Kbps on a 10-Mbps connection (and it really
is a 10Mbps connection).

Rebooting the machine seemed to solve the problem, but I worry that this
is some kind of bug that will reappear soon. Any suggestions? Any
advice on what to monitor with PM to try to isolate the problem?

Hi,
because the ASP pages connections is large than the default value of
IIS(default is 500). You should check your ASP pages or increase the
"RequestQueueMax" in the following registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\ASP\Parameters
IIS4 default value is 500(0x1f4).

Thanks, but I am not finding any such item "RequestQueueMax" in the
entire registry.

You can add it in the following registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\ASP\Parameters

Good Lucky.
