I know that it is a memory error, and then webcat shuts down... any suggestions??You can get WebCatalog 2.0.1 from ftp://robin.smithmicro.com/current/Here are a few ideas to help track this down:Is it the NT event log itself that's killing all your memory? If so, change your event log settings (from Event Viewer) to a smaller log size, and allow Wrapping with Overwrite Events as Needed.Is WebCatalog's ErrorLog.txt file filling up, and if so, with what?Also try running PerfMon to observe what DBServer's Private Bytes does over time. It should remain stable after all the databases have been cached, and all the templates are cached. If it increases steadily, then there is a leak (perhaps caused by some unterminated WebDNA tags, or other syntax errors).Finally, try *temporarily* adding DebugLevel1 to the end of the WebCatalog Prefs file, and restart the WebCatalog service. This causes WebCatalog to write to a file called WebCatalog.debug which contains all the incoming request information. Search for the word starting and look up one line to see what 'killer' URL caused it to stop working.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
