Index Server: Error: 0x2AF9 Occurred While Running Webhits.exe

Last reviewed: January 22, 1998
Article ID: Q164182

The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Index Server version 1.1

SYMPTOMS

When you select a virtual server, you may get the following error message when you click the Show Highlights hyperlink:

   Error: 0x2AF9 Occurred while running webhits.exe

CAUSE

When Webhits.exe is called, it searches for the /Scripts subdirectory by default. If a global /Scripts directory (a virtual directory without an associated IP address) exists, Webhits.exe cannot use it to pull up the information.

WORKAROUND

Create another /Scripts virtual directory for the virtual server with the same IP address. Point this /Scripts directory to the same physical location as the global /Scripts directory.
