The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Internet Information Services version 6.0, when used with:
    • Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Datacenter x64 Edition
    • Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Enterprise x64 Edition
    • Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard x64 Edition
    • Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP1, when used with:
      • Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition for Itanium-based Systems

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario. Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 is running on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1)-based computer. An ASP file uses a UNC share path to reference an include file. In this scenario, changes that are made to the include file may not be recognized by the computer. This behavior frequently occurs when the following conditions are true:
  • The include file is modified frequently.
  • The Web server is under heavy load.
Note This problem does not occur in the original release versions of Windows Server 2003.

Technical support for x64-based versions of Microsoft Windows

Your hardware manufacturer provides technical support and assistance for x64-based versions of Windows. Your hardware manufacturer provides support because an x64-based version of Windows was included with your hardware. Your hardware manufacturer might have customized the installation of Windows with unique components. Unique components might include specific device drivers or might include optional settings to maximize the performance of the hardware. Microsoft will provide reasonable-effort assistance if you need technical help with your x64-based version of Windows. However, you might have to contact your manufacturer directly. Your manufacturer is best qualified to support the software that your manufacturer installed on the hardware.
