Summary
FM Server 10 Adv Admin console and wpe problems since upgrade
Description of the issue
We've had problems since upgrading to FM Server 10 Adv running on Windows Server 2003. It seemed to be associated with the scheduled backup, so turned that off and have been doing backups manually. The problems got better but didn't go away. The issues I've seen are: - external authentication fails, and testing Directory Service settings in the admin console fails - Admin console sometimes doesn't show the databases even though FMP client users can get to them okay - if databases do show, I can't open or close them through Admin console - the web publishing engine starts sending errors and warnings - the response time from the web server becomes really slow After the server itself is rebooted, everything works fine for 12-24 hrs, and then these problems pop up, even if no one is trying to access any databases. We are running FM Server Adv 10.0.1.64 and have installed the 10.0v1a External Authentication Update. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks - Amy

Thank you for your post.
If different than the problems listed, what problems have you seen with scheduled backups?
Does external authentication always fail, or only a certain amount of time?
When the Admin Console doesn't show the databases, is it all databases or just some of them?
What errors and/or warnings are being sent by the Web Publishing Engine?
Can you elaborate a bit more on the "Web Server becomes really slow"?
Any additional information may be helpful in narrowing down some possible causes.
