    ERROR - There are too many people accessing the Web site at this time


    Hi,

    I'm using WinXP-Pro, ASP classic, IIS 5.0.

    I regularly get this error, but I know I am the only user accessing the
    website at the time of the error.

    I looked it up on the MS support webiste. Their recommendation is this ...

    ------------------
    on Microsoft Windows XP Professional, disable HTTP keep-alives in the
    properties of the Web site. When you do this, a limit of 10 concurrent
    connections still exists, but IIS does not maintain connections for inactive
    users.
    (see full message text below)
    -------------------

    The problem is, I cant find "HTTP keep-alives" in order to disable them.

    Can anyone help ? Do I need to go to IIS 5.1 ? Where can I download it
    from ?

    Thanks,
    PW


    ----------------------------------------------------



    SYMPTOMS
    When you attempt to browse an Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 Web
    site that is running on Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, the following
    error message is displayed at the top of the browser:

    The page cannot be displayed
    There are too many people accessing the Web site at this time.
    The following error message is also displayed further down in the browser:

    HTTP 403.9 - Access Forbidden: Too many users are connected
    Internet Information Services
    CAUSE
    The error messages occur when more than ten users are attempting to connect
    to IIS 5.0. The version of IIS 5.0 that is included in Windows 2000
    Professional is limited to ten connections.
    RESOLUTION
    If more than ten connections are needed, use the version of IIS 5.0 that is
    included in Windows 2000 Server.

    If you use IIS 5.0 on Windows 2000 Professional or IIS 5.1 on Microsoft
    Windows XP Professional, disable HTTP keep-alives in the properties of the
    Web site. When you do this, a limit of 10 concurrent connections still
    exists, but IIS does not maintain connections for inactive users.
    STATUS
    This behavior is by design.

      WinXP Pro already have IIS v5.1

      Open the IIS Manager in your Admin Tools Folder.
      Right-click on the "Default Web Site" and choose "Properties "
      On the "Web Site" tab, uncheck "Keep-Alives" enabled.

      Cheers
      Ken

              Ahhhhh, I was right-clicking on the actual website rather than the default
              website. I've followed your instructions and then went through the normal
              steps to cause the error ... and it all worked fine. Thank you so much,
              this has plagued me for far too long.
