Server weirdness

Report · Aug 15, 2011

I have a server that is a win 2008R2 x64 SP1 IIS7.5, with CF 9,0,1,274733. Just migrated from win2k3 with IIS6 and CF 7mx. Now that we have migrated, we tested the pages and all seemed well. Now that people are running queries its is running slowly. Getting a bunch of timeouts. Something is obviouslly not right.

In IIS i get a lot of errors similar to this

A worker process with process id of '4356' serving application pool 'DefaultAppPool' was shutdown due to inactivity. Application Pool timeout configuration was set to 20 minutes. A new worker process will be started when needed.

I dont know if this problem is with CF or IIS's handling of CF.

I can provide any information needed.

I realize that the last error message i mentioned, was not during production times, so go ahead and ingnore it. The only thing i can think of that is causing our weirdness, is the fact that we were using Access Dbs, which from what i have read are a big legacy no-no. I have followed this documetn which was pointed in another thread in the forums, http://www.cfexecute.com/post/access-dsns-in-64bit-coldfusion/ . I have followed the directions, our pages work when i test them. However when our staff of at least a 100 people come in and start banging against our server, bad things happen. The server has a bunch of timeouts, request times are very high. The site is just very slow. Anyone have an idea? I can provide more info, i just feel stumped
