Webcat just freezes and never comes back to life.THis was happening to be when I was storing my dates in the default date format, because interpreting dates in the dfault format is very processor-intensive. That's why I changed all my stored dates to the number of days since 00/00/0000. Now I never have a timeout problem anymore, the date searching takes about 100 or 1000 times LESS TIME than before. The difference is truly dramatic, especially in a large database.>And >this can happen serving nothing more then a straight HTML page with NO >webcat commands in it at all (at least that is the last page served before >the crash, according to the WebCat debug file we keep).Do you use the tag in this last page even though has no WebDNA tags in it? What's your InterpretAll preference set to? Is WebCat actually serving this page or does it have a suffix that's not even used by WebCatalog?If WebCat is actually serving that last page, it may be doing it from a different thread than the one that's causing the hang-ups, so the last page in the logs is probably *not* always going to be the page that's causing the problems -- but one of the last few pages in the logs *should* include the problem page ...What's the server's timeout value set to? Have you tried doubling that value to see if that change makes any difference?Sincerely, Ken Grome 808-737-6499 WebDNA Solutions mailto:ken@webdna.net http://www.webdna.net
