Restarting wp_aspnet.exe

Apart from using task manager to kill the process... is there a way I can
restart my application?

It's for a website hosted on another server, to which I don't have admin
rights. I could always contact technical support perhaps, but thought that's
a lot of hassle.

Thanks

Calvin,

If your website is hosted on another server, then chances are your
access will not grant you permission to do things such as shutting down
processes. In that case, you will have to contact the administrators of the
server and get them to recycle your application for you.

Some of the better hosting services have an option to recycle your
application from whatever control panel they offer you to administer your
site.

Hope this helps.

Do you have access to modify your web.config file? Changes to that file
cause the application to restart. Note that this does not necessarily also
restart aspnet worker process as it may be servicing other applications
besides yours.

Hi,

What makes you think that you can do that? If you kill it it will probably
affect other users of the server.

Contact customer support.
cheers,

Hi,

another option more lightweight is writing something in the /bin directory,
an empty txt file will do the trick :)

I was unsure as to whether each app had it's own process. I'm only working
on a single test server, but clearly wouldn't want to cause undue problems.
Now I know.

Thanks
