Forum runs very slow. Not all of the forum loads. Takes forever to go between pages. Everything worked fine for the first week online.

All other links on intranet are fast and I am using asp pages.

any help is appreciated.

If you got a busy forum on an access db as your db grows the forum gets slower.........all you can do is make the db smaller by deleting old posts of upgrade to an MS SQL db....

vicman, you don't say

1) whether you are using 6.xx or the v7.xx which don't forget is a beta and therefore should not be used on a live system. 
2) how many posts / Users are we talking about for the Forum?
3) What Access version are you using and whether you have tried compacting?

Meantime, as it is an intranet and assuming you have access to the server running IIS, have you tried a reboot and if so does it make any difference? 

To help further we need more info

Hope this helps

I am running version 6.34

there are only 2 posts and only 29 people have registered so far. There will be only about 200.

I am using access2000 and I have tried compacting the database.

I tried rebooting the server, it did not help.

any help would be appreciated.

My dev. server is a Cyrix 600Mhz with over 300Mb of mem and it tends to run ASP slow but then agian its only my dev. server. My live server is a dual 800 PIII with 1Gb if mem.

That could be your problem, it's a slow server, if it is running all ASP pages slow.

How many sites are on your server.

600Mhz Single CPU?

640Mb mem I would use 1Gb

There is only one site, the server is being used just for the intranet. there are only 200 people using it. Again, everything else runs very fast.

It sould be runing fine then.

even with my boged down dev server that only runs at 600Mhz it loads the index page of the forum in about a second. Maybe you don't have IIS configured corectly.

How is your system set up

is it a domain controler?

are you using 2k SP2

is the server on your own network. or is it cohosted on someone else's

what part of the foum is runing slow
