Has anyone encountered a similar warning message in their server event viewer? We have had some slowness on our Intranet server in recent days and I want to see if this message, which is applicable to Webpublisher, has anything to do with it.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

I am also starting to suffer from this problem too.
Everything has been working fine up until the last few weeks, now though at least once maybe twice a week my textbase searching breaks and I get exactly the same error in my event log followed by lts of Event 204 WAM errors. (see below)

The only way I can fix this is to reboot my Web Publisher Server.

The only thing that has changed onthis box are the Microsoft Security Patches.

Did you find a solution to this ??

Anyone else having the same problem.

Running Windows 2000 Server SP4 IIS 5 fully patched.

I can't recall how this was solved but WebPublisher was not the problem. Are there other applications running on the same server?

Hi JennM,
Thanks for the reply..
I think the problem could be to do with some of the Microsoft Security patches that I install on a monthly basis, we have only recentley had this problem which leads me to believe that it is a patch that is causing the problem.
I have scheduled a reboot of the server every night and this will solve the problem for the short term while I build a new server with Windows Server 2003, hopefully this will solve my problem.
Thanks for your response anyway.

I realise this is an old thread, but did you actually get to the bottom of this?

We still get regular errors of:

The HTTP server encountered an unhandled exception while processing the ISAPI Application '
ntdll!RtlZeroHeap + 0x624
ntdll!RtlCreateHeap + 0x8BE
ntdll!RtlAllocateHeap + 0x3B6

MSVCR71!__crtLCMapStringA + 0x32D

Hi Mike,

We no longer seem to have this problem.

I upgraded our Web Publisher box to Server 2003 and also the latest versions of DB and Web Pub. and since then touch wood the server / sites have been 100% reliable.

Hope this helps you.
