Hi guys, I have just encountered a problem with my site,

it has been running fine untill now,

all pages are asp and i connect to a database on a server via a dsn-less connection, however I tried to get on to the site today and got a nasty errror message about 'too many client tasks'?

can anyone point me to what could be wrong here? Just seems wierd that it has been working fine.

thanks
Mark

hmm, Im a bit of a novice at this, isn't IIS just my my local server?

how would i close the connections like you said, sorry but i have built the site on dreamweaver so have very little knowledge on the code.

what exactly does the message mean?

thanks

to reset Internet Information Service click start and go to run and enter "iisreset" (without the quotes). If you used dreamweaver ultradev or something like that it should automatically close the connections for you.
