Request timed out - request timeout

Question

My site runs on Asp.net v4, IIS 7, a Windows 2008 server.

My processor runs 20-30% and the site responds quickly.

Every 2-5 minutes I get the following error:

Event code: 3001 Event message: The request has been aborted. Exception type: HttpException Exception message: Request timed out. , Request information: Request URL: http://www.xxxx.com/Services/AxRefresh.asmx/AxUpdate Request path: /Services/AxRefresh.asmx/AxUpdate User host address: 84.110.251.198 User: Is authenticated: False Authentication Type: Thread account name: NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE 

I read that the error is related to the maximum limit of concurrent requests http://support.microsoft.com/kb/821268

but then I found out that in IIS 7 this restriction is changed and does not matter. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd560842(VS.100).aspx

Any other ideas what could be the problem or where to start looking?

update: found another link that said all the parameters below: maxWorkerThreads minWorkerThreads maxIoThreads minFreeThreads minLocalRequestFreeThreads maxconnection ExecutionTimeout

DO NOT apply to IIS7 + Asp.NET 4

here is the link http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/381/aspnet-20-breaking-changes-on-iis-70

** I still get 100 errors daily on my iis7 **

Answer 1

The second link you found is not related to the first, so you still need to apply the changes in the first article and see if it helps.
