Usage analysis for Office XP Web Services does not automatically occur on a server that is running Windows Server 2003

Expand all | Collapse all

SYMPTOMS

You install FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions from Microsoft and Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 on a server that is running Microsoft Windows Server 2003. After you do this, usage analysis for Office XP Web Services does not automatically occur while the server handles typical traffic for Office XP Web Services requests.

CAUSE

This behavior is by design. Office XP Web Services do not include an automatic timer service.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, you can create a scheduled task by using Scheduled Tasks in Control Panel. Alternatively, you can manually create a scheduled task by using the Schtasks.exe tool. This tool runs the following example batch file at a set time interval:
@echo off
if not (%1)==(low) start /low cmd.exe /c Batch_file_name.cmd low
if not (%1)==(low) goto EXIT
cd /d "%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\50\bin"
owsadm.exe -o usage -p lm/w3svc/1
owsadm.exe -o usage -p lm/w3svc/2
owsadm.exe -o usage -p lm/w3svc/3
:EXIT
In this example, the Owsadm.exe command-line utility is called three times to process usage statistics for the Web sites that have the identifier numbers of 1, 2, and 3. To see the Web site identifiers, follow these steps:
  1. Start Internet Services Manager.
  2. Click the name of the Web site that you want to examine.
  3. Read the description of the Web site. The description lists the Web site identifiers.
  4. Quit Internet Services Manager.
