[scorpion]

hi
i wanted to thank you for this great software.
i have downloaded x1 and had a short exprience with it .
i am a professional programmer , i had IIS server with windows xp professional installed and had multiple website running in my computer with asp and asp.net .
i wanted my customer to see and check his website anytime on my compute r, i had some problems with iis , for limited connection number that was very bad so i switched to abyss x1 for solving this i ran my web site almost easily excpet the following problems :
1- my forum software is free WEB WIZ forum that is written with asp , but i couldn't run it and activehtml is not free is another free software for running asp applications ?
2- i have a script that creates thumbnails on the fly for first time and after that just redirects request to previous ly generated file .
it gave me erroe because i use server.mappath in it how ir can be solved ?
3- i solved temporarily with setting a variable to physical root path and use to solve the problem and it seemed solved but when having multiple images referring to this script on a page , it some times shows all of them some times shows only some od them !
and it changes every time i refresh on my browser ! shows some other pictures and for the others shows error !
what is this problem and how can be solved ?
4- is there any tunning parameters to tuning and caching files or not and where can i find information about them .
thnx again and please help me

for problems in showing only some of pictures i checked the access.log and i saw that some pictures that must be returned from that script , were returned with error 500 which i think is access forbidden . maybe a bandwidth limit or something like this causes this problem , can you help me in that ?

[scorpion]

i disabled cache negotiation for my sub applications and problem seems solved .

scorpion,

The Servermap error needs further investigation. Could you please send your abyss.conf file to support@aprelium.com (please put in your email a reference to this forum thread)?
