<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I was hoping this problem would go away for me after upgrading to MapGuide Open 1.0.1, but it continues. If I try to utilize an ECW image, it locks up the MapGuide Server service. I have confirmed this with 3 separate ECW images. I have also confirmed that TIF, MrSID and JPG seem to work just fine so I do not suspect an overall misconfiguration of the raster provider. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">This only occurs on my Windows 2000 production server. My Windows XP development laptop appears to be OK with ECW's. I am using the MapGuide .NET web extensions in both cases. When this happens, MapGuide will render the image for the first request (such as viewing the layer in Studio), but any subsequent requests are not responded to and the service is locked up until I use pskill and psservice to restart it.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am open to trying anything (short of switching web extensions flavor) as I have quite a few ECW's I would like to publish. Thanks.</FONT></P>
