Adding Users to a Group Through P and M Web Admin Hangs Inetinfo.exe Service (251263)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Site Server 3.0
This article was previously published under Q251263 SYMPTOMS
When adding users to a group through Microsoft Site Server 3.0 Personalization and Membership Web Administrator, the inetinfo.exe service might hang.
CAUSE
The process of adding a user to a Microsoft Access database creates a very large jetXXX.tmp file in your Windows NT temporary directory. The problem is particularly observed when there is already a very large number of members in the group.
RESOLUTION
It is not recommended to use an Access database on a production server. Microsoft SQL Server is the preferred database to handle large amounts of data.
WORKAROUND
Instead of using an Access database for the membership instance, use SQL Server. SQL Server does not create the jetXXX.tmp file and thus inetinfo.exe service does not hang.
-or
Instead of using the Personalization and Membership Web Admin, use the Site Server Microsoft Management Console (MMC) to add users.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Site Server version 3.0.
