A couple times since we upgraded to version 5 build 20071109. We have had issues with the w3wp.exe utilizing 99% of the cpu. I enabled the debug mode after the last time.
Currently my only ways to clear the problem are to run an iisreset or reboot the server. What is causing this issue?
While running the troubleshooter, w3wp spiked again to 99%.

Not near the time it started this.

The only error I see is this one that happened a day before the cpu utilization pegged.

Hello mlarson,

Just to make sure, are you running any Anti Virus software on your server and if so, have you made sure the correct exclusions are in place: http://kbase.gfi.com/showarticle.asp?id=KBID001522?

You mentioned that you normally resolve the issue by resetting IIS or rebooting the server. Did you also try to re-register ASP.NET with IIS:

1. Open Command Prompt
2. Go to <Windows Directory>\Microsoft.NET\Framework\<version number>\
3. Type the command ‘aspnet_regiis.exe –i’ and press ENTER

Are there no Errors/Warnings in your Event log thrown by MailArchiver?

Kind regards,

Also having exactly the same issues:

100% load on w3wp, happens randomly, can be everyday or once a week

IIS restart solves the issue until next time

Server has no anti-virus, is up to date in MARC5 version and windows patches (server 2003 SP2)

Have reinstalled IIS and MARC and re-registered IIS to no avail

I also have this problem - it's happened once yesterday and 3 times today.

During one of the occasions where w3wp.exe was using 100% CPU, I ran ProcessMonitor (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx) to see what files/registry keys were being accessed - the w3wp process did not open anything at all, but the process MArc.Store was issuing many many Read File requests on the file C:\Progam Files\GFI\MailArchiver\Store\Cache\UPDATESCACHE.FDB. Not sure if this helps diagnose the problem.

Is there any news on a fix for this problem?

Matt

I had a support case open regarding the indexing not rebuilding.  After that had been fixed, high CPU usage has not returned.

There could be a connection.

I am also having the same problems, no solutions have been posted so could I have a support ticket or the solution be posted to help eveyone else? I am running v5.0 build 20071109.

w3wp.exe relates to application pools in IIS, once i stoppped and restarted the MailArchiverPool CPU usage went back to 0%.
