SYMPTOMS
All client browser requests are fulfilled with the default web page from
the WWW service on the proxy server. Stopping and restarting the Web Proxy
service fixes the problem for a short period of time, but the problem
eventually returns. Another symptom includes the Web Proxy service failing
to return data to any web proxy request.
CAUSE
This problem is caused by a registry entry that is generated incorrectly
on some systems. The problem occurs only in the 60-day evaluation version
of Microsoft Proxy Server 1.0. To check which version you have, open the
Mspclnt.ini file on the proxy server (usually found in the Msp\Clients
directory), and look at the build number near the top:
Build=1.0.193.3 (60-day evaluation version affected by this problem)
Build=1.0.193.4 (corrected 60-day evaluation version)
Build=1.0.194.2 (compact disc version -- not affected by this problem)
The compact disc version of Proxy Server 1.0 (build 1.0.194.2) does not
exhibit this behavior.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Microsoft Proxy Server
version 1.0 (60-Day Evaluation version). This problem was corrected in an
updated evaluation version of Proxy Server 1.0. To fix this problem,
either purchase and install the release version or download and install
the new evaluation version of Proxy Server 1.0 from:
MORE INFORMATION
When installing the new version, the preferred method is to Upgrade your
current version. Uninstalling your current version is not recommended.
