There was nothing logged in the event-log. That's the problem.

We are considering re-installing IIS and .NET Framework.

I was also facing same problem with my .NET Web Apps. I changed userName
attribute to SYSTEM in the <processModel > section of the Machine.config file
on my machine.

It worked for me.

What's really strange is that there is no entry in the event-log at all.

Thanks Yusuf - I started getting this error message today right after
installing the latest security patch from Microsoft, and changing this
setting in the Machine.Config file cleared it up.

Now ... can anyone please inform me what I need to do to switch the
setting back? Should we expect another communique from MS on this one?

You need to understand what the cause of the error is to be able to fix
it. I suggest that you can do your own logging (using global.asax), or
turn on tracing for the application, or turn the custom error display on
using the web.config. (Try the last one first).

Make that ditto, likewise.

Same problem after doing the same Windows Automatic Update this morning,
productivity restored after the same solution.

Of course, the solution is a hack, for which I express my thanks to Yusuf
for sending it.

Like Ian, I await with interest Microsoft's patch on the patch.

And by the by, before rummaging through this highly esteemed and fried
newsgroup for suggestions, I attempted a slight variation on the theme
(taking a hint from a vaguely related discussion on the support.microso ft
pages) whereby I set the userName value to ASPNET (a auto-installed
identity), and then added ASPNET to the localhosts administrator group.

Those steps earned me a stack overflow. Hhhmmmm ......
Thanks again to this threads contributors.
