Hi,

I have a server with 2 1.4 GHz processors and 2 GB of RAM running Windows
2000 with Service Pack 3 (server name is THRUSH). I have installed Oracle
Forms and Reports and I am trying to run 6 services out of this Oracle
install. 2 for TEST, 2 for PROD, and 2 for TRAIN. I cannot get all 6 to
run at the same time and I am not too sure why because I have the same
environment set up on another server that has 1/2 the resources (this server
name is WOLF). When I attempt to start the 6th service I get an error that
the service could not start becuase it did not respond in a timely manner.
However, I can get all 6 to run on THRUSH if I shutdown IIS but then it
hangs on startup.

Also I needed to increase the setting under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager\SubSystems\Windows. I had to change Windows
SharedSection=1024,3072,512 to Windows SharedSection=1024,3072,1024. I
cannot get the 3rd value any higher then 1024 on THRUSH otherwise IIS hangs
on the re-boot. Errors I see are:

The IIS Admin Service service hung on starting.


The FTP Publishing Service service depends on the IIS Admin Service service
which failed to start because of the following error:

After starting, the service hung in a start-pending state.

The Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) service depends on the IIS Admin
Service service which failed to start because of the following error:

After starting, the service hung in a start-pending state.

The World Wide Web Publishing Service service depends on the IIS Admin
Service service which failed to start because of the following error:

After starting, the service hung in a start-pending state.


On the smaller server, WOLF, I can set this 3rd value to 2560 with no
problem whatsoever. Is there a setting I am missing somewhere? Any help
would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jordan Armstrong
