IIS 6 resets after changing ASP.NET FW version

[=?Utf-8?B?UGVrZQ==?=]

Hi there,

We encounter the following problem.

When we change the .NET FW version (ASP.NET tab) in a virtual directory of
IIS, it looks like there is a IISRESET in the background; all the worker
processes are ended.

This behavior is really a problem in a production environment.

Does anyone have an idea how this can be avoided ?

Hello Peke,

It's feature by design. No way to cope with it

Hi Peke,

To avoid restarting the whole W3SVC process, you can put your web site in a
separate AppPool and only restart the AppPool after you changed the script
mapping of it using aspnet_regiis.exe -s. Please refer to following blog
article for complete steps:
