FM7 and IWP keeps stopping requiring IWP restart

[maxxfromcanada]

I have to keep restartung Instant web publishing or change the log idle users off time in order to restart the web service. The database itself is accessible through Filemaker. This is my console log...does anyone know what it means? The only thing I know is that it's referring to the Filemaker app process and not the IWP process because of the ID number. Thanks.

malloc is generally known in programming to allocate memory for pointers. it can be a hardware problem too, though.

free() is to free the memory that's allocated for pointer or other variable types.

sometimes the log doesn't necessary point to the problem itself... i think you still need to investigate yourself what the problem is.

I am running FMP7 IWP on a Windows 2003 Server, and I regularly encounter a similar problem. After being left unattended for a random amount of time (a day or two), "FM Web Publishing.exe" crashes. It does not produce a UI error, nor does it register in the system Event Log. The best clue I can find from any log is an error "200" in the web "application.log"

I have to turn "Instant Web Publishing" off and then on again (or reboot filemaker entirely) in order to restart FM Web Publishing.

Any clues as to what may be causing this or how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

I tried everything and the last thing I tried worked. It appears at least with OS X that FMP7 IWP does not like port 80. All I did was changed the port to 8080 and it's been up and running ever since. This might also work on Windows. FMP v.6 did not have this problem.
