Application Center 2000 User Interface May Break After You Change the Port on the Administrative Web Site (821129)

SYMPTOMS

The Application Center 2000 user interface may not work correctly if the port for the Application Center 2000 administrative Web site is changed.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the Port property is cached. By default, this property is set to 4242.
