Hi,
The issue I am having is,
I have some .asp scripts running:
1. to display files in a certain directory with no extra parameters,
strictly the SQL statement and the directory and write DESC
The result will be 0 for a directory with many files yet its sibling
directory with index properly. ie
d:\somedir\someotherdir\2004\apr - this will index properly
d:\somedir\someotherdir\2004\may - this will NOT index properly
This script has not been changed in at least 12 months

2. to display files in a certain directory with extra parameters like '
filename like "01 04" added to the SQL and write DESC
The result will be 0 for a directory with many files yet its sibling
directory with index properly. ie
ie.
d:\somedir\someotherdir\2004\apr - filename like "01 04" this will
index properly
d:\somedir\someotherdir\2004\may - filename like "01 05" this will
NOT index properly
the syntax for the filename may not be correct in this post as I
don't have the files in front of me
but on the server the directories are correct, the SQL statements
are correct and the filename like .. is correct

It seems as though every month another directory suffers from this
ailment, which means I have to use alternative ways to display the
files, yet the scripts and directory structures and filenames are ALWAYS
consistent. Reboots of the server do not solve the problem.
Platform Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6, Active Perl, IIS 4.0 fully
Patched MDAC 2.7, Index Server 2.0 I believe whatever is the version
with NT 4.

Any ideas on what is happening or what a solution may would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks

Jack Wayne
