This article was previously published under Q194229



For a Microsoft FrontPage 97 and earlier version of this article, see 189876.



SYMPTOMS
If you attempt to use the FrontPage Personal Web server for extended use, such as a dedicated intranet Web server that you never reboot, the Web server may leak system resources and eventually fail.



CAUSE
The FrontPage Personal Web Server was not designed to be a dedicated Web server, but rather to provide "proofing" functionality to Web authors who develop and test Webs before publishing them to a production server. Because of this, it does not have the same resource management capability that dedicated server software provides.



RESOLUTION
If you need to have a dedicated server, you should upgrade to the Microsoft Personal Web server or Microsoft Internet Information Server.
