Subject: Self deleting files with IIS4 and War FTP daemon
From: "Richard Davey" <rich@kaliba.net>

Hi there,
We've got a very very strange problem with one of our NT servers. We are
running IIS4 and have around 50 or so web sites on it. We use War FTP daemon
to let the users upload their files.
Recently (as of the past couple of days) people have been reporting that
they are unable to overwrite existing files that are on the server. Their
FTP clients are giving them access denied messages. When we looked at the
files via Explorer (logged in as Admin on the NT Server) we were unable to
open, rename, copy, move or delete the files. Each one gave an Access Denied
error message. What's more, Disk Administrator showed no files as being
locked or in use and Event Viewer showed nothing strange.
We shut down the server and rebooted it. The files vanished. They'd
literally be deleted from the hard drive with no intervention on our part.
We played for hours and hours.. the end result being this.. if IIS has a
file locked open (i.e. someone had viewed the web page and the browser was
still on that site) and at the same time, the author uploaded a replacement
file, it trashed it. It's as if IIS has a lock on the directory and the FTP
software can't override or use it.
When the web browser was closed down and we knew there was nothing accessing
that site via IIS, the ftp worked perfectly.
Does anyone have ANY ideas at all as to what the hell is going on here? I'm
quite sure this used to work perfectly before in the past, but now we're
being locked out of files on our own server and users are getting a little
upset. Maybe ditch War FTP Daemon and install the new 1.70 version? Maybe
ditch IIS and use Apache instead?! This is really strange, any opinions are
much appreciated. Could it be a disk failure? CHKDSK was reporting strange
things, but nothing it didn't fix. Maybe a virus? although we don't install
any software on the server at all.
Cheers,
Richard Davey

I have seen this as well with IIS4. One thing I did was turn off server to=
cleint keep alives. This resolved the problem for me. I also think=
apache on unix is better as a web server. IIS seems to have problems with=
quite a few things such as server side includes, configuring perl (unix=
doesn't need .pl or .cgi for a perl script to work). Try turning off=
sever to client keep alives on the root web server and make sure you apply=
this to all of your virtual web servers as well.
I hope this helps.
Also, why are you using war-ftp daemon? (someone likes tucows :) ).
IIS 4 already has an ftp server built in.

Did your files at least show a 0 byte size?

Carlos I can get you set up with quake at least.
Call 212-242-2912 after 7:00 pm edt and I'll put some files up for you to=
start out with.
You will need a full version of quake. You also need to make a new=
directory called modules (those are the files I will give you). A copy of=
winquake (available from id software but I have it as well - freeware).=
Two utiliies called qhost and qview available from http://www.xoanan.com/
qhost is used to administer the quake sever via qview. Qhost will also let=
you run it as a service.
If you do not want qview or qhost just get winquake and my modules files=
and run this from the command line.
winquake -dedicated 16 -game modules -winmem 16
which means
16 players using modules (ctf) and 16 megs of ram.
