You ever seen this error when starting IIS?? "Not enough storage is available to complete this operation."

Over a gig of memeory free over 30GB on the hard drive is free its nto a space issue from what we can see.. This is like the 5 th time this has happend and it only does it when you go to start IIS.. Its very odd and it only seems to do this with H-SPhere installed.. This makes 5 servers that have done it and the only way to fix it is a full need install and move every one..

Even reinstalling IIS does not fix it.

Well bleave it or not here is what I just psoted on Psofts forum after we found the problem.....

Ok we have had this error on 5 servers now "Not enough storage is available to complete this operation."

So far the only way we have found to fix this issue was to move every thing to a new system now this has always fixed the issue but I was getting sick of doing this. So I called up MS to find the real issue..

Now at this point IIS will not start any thing and gives this error "Not enough storage is available to complete this operation." as I am talking to the MS IIS techs they come up with that we have to many IPs on the server.. Care to guess how many??? 26 IPs, MS says that IIS has issues supporting more then 25 IPs in IIS, so I was thinking to my self your ****ing nuts this is not going to work.. I removed 2 IPs to get us under 25 IPs. Bleave it or not IIS started right the heck up.. So now I am think what the hell is going on here we have moved around 5 servers but never removeing the IPs from that system and the new servers always worked fine. Please we have other systems that do not use H-Sphere with over 100 IPs 5 of them that do. Never have had this issue.. So the leads me back to Psoft as we have had this same error on 5 windows 2000 servers I have never seen this error on ANY other system. So Psoft must be adding sites to IIS WRONG or adding the IPs wrong to windows 2000.


Something should be done about this now that we have an idea about the issue. I have told igor about this a few times but no one had any idea till I called MS to find the issue..
