Hello,

I am using IIS 5.1 on XP Pro.

I have a page with many links on it (say 'Main Page').
Clicking on any of the links in Main Page, leads to say 'Page1.

My Scenario (modified to make it simple):
Click on 1st link of 'Main Page', opens page - page1.
I press the browsers 'back' button and go back to 'Main Page'.
Click on 2nd link of 'Main Page', opens page - page1 again.
I press the browsers 'back' button and go back to 'Main Page'.
Click on 3nd link of 'Main Page', opens page - page1 again.

After doing this for a while, it gives me error :
HTTP 403.9 - Access Forbidden: Too many users are connected
Internet Information Services

All the links has the code:
Response.Redirect ("Page1.aspx", False)

If I restart IIS, it starts working fine. Also, this happens mostly
when I try to access the application from some other computer.

Any suggestion, whats going wrong ? Why is the connection not getting
closed ?
Its seems to be a simple problem, but i have been pulling my hair for a
while to get an answere.

Any help appreciated !!

Thanks !!
 
Thanks Gaurav !!

I turned off HTTP Keep Alives. And it works fine.

Still, I am wondering, is this a coding bug ? As per my sequence of
steps, I am not opening many connections. I am closing all database
connections after using it (in fact, I havent reached that page which
has database connection, with my sequence of steps).

This was working fine for a while and suddenly this problem started.

Is there anything else I should take care of in my application ?

Thanks again !!
 
Explicitly send a header ??
Is there a link which explains that or do you have a code snippet for
that..

Thanks !!
