Robert,
Thanks for the problem list.
Yes, we saw your post. I would expect Brian will answer some of your questions/requests. Through the years I, also, have been critical of the file server's handling of logging/errors. We will pay attention to that in the future.
I know that CometAsService is important to some, and there are some issues. But, there have been other products that have taken our time this last year.
These problems stem from the relatively new requirement of windows that outlaws a service from dealing with the "screen". The life of a service these days is much more complex than it was in the past. I know it is not "generally acceptable", but I have set up our servers to automatically log on a particular user and run comet automatically, avoiding Comet as Service altogether.
Are these issues important enough that we should suspend support for CometAsService/CasMonitor?
Each file can be a maximum of 1MB in length Uploaded files will be purged from the server on a regular basis.
