Server Error: Web <Root Web> is Busy.

Hi,
I have asked a similar question before about the Error
message that follows, in regards to what and where the
problem is. But, what I am asking now is, would this be
an indication that the hosting site has more business
than what they can handle or too small of a server for
the amount of hosting sites they have?

This is the error message (exact):
"Server error: Web <Root Web> is busy.
Please try again"

What is happening is that my hosting company can't seem
to correct this problem and states that my site is too
busy to handle the hits and the changes at the same
time. So he suggested that I make my changes either
later in the evening or very early in the morning. (My
site is not very busy, maybe 60 to 70 hits a day.)
Currently he has suggested, and is now working on, to
start another hosting account on a windows
2000 server for me. Would this solve the problem or make
any difference? I am running FrontPage 2002 with Win XP
Pro on a Pentium 4 - 1.6GHz processor and I believe he is
currently running a Unix(?) system (I am not sure about
this, but I do remember seeing this someplace).

I am just really having a heck of a time with this, and
sometimes it seems to run really good making me forget
the problems. I would like to know if it would be worth
making a change to another "HOSTING COMPANY?"

Thanks for listening, and for your help.
Regards,
Bud
 
60 to 70 hit per day is really nothing that would cause a web busy error.
The host could have to many accounts on the server, he could have a low
speed connection to the internet, could be any number of things.

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the info. In other words you are suggesting
to look elsewhere? Any suggestions for a good hosting
company that would be fairly cheap? (less than $10/mo)
I really appreciate your help.

Thanks
Bud
 
Can't help you with any recommendation for hosting under $20/month

Hi again Thomas, Thanks for the quick reply. You guys
and gals that sit here and offer us your expert advice
are really great. I know that I appreciate your help and
advice and are really glad that you take the time to help
others. Thanks Thomas and the rest of the gang.
In reply to your $20 suggestion, I guess you get what you
pay for, right? I am only paying $4.95/mo now and I guess
that's about all I am getting from them, right?:-0

Thanks again,
Regards,
Bud
 
Hi Kathleen,
[I have a sister named Kathleen, and she's a Great Gal,
as I am sure that all Kathleen's are, Right? ;-)] Thanks
for the info. I had ran across VIA NET someplace else in
the past few days in one of the NewsGroups and checked
their website to see what they had to say and then seen
them listed on Microsoft's Page that recommends hosting
sites that meet their criteria, and the price isn't bad
either. I am going to Bookmark (add to Favorites) their
site and difently do some thinking if I have to change
Hosting Sites. Right now, mine (hosting site) has just
completed setting up an account for me on his Win 2000
server and am in hopes that this solves the problem. If
not-----bye, bye!

Thanks to everyone that had some info to share. This has
been sort of fun doing this and especially nice when the
mediatators can enjoy it too. Thanks ALL!

Regards,
Bud
