Application pool being disabled

=?Utf-8?B?R2VyaGFyZA==?=

I have 2 web servers on which I am running a .net version 2 application, both
of which I want to use an application pool with the same domain user's id and
password to tighten security. I have this working fine on one web server
(http), but keep getting the error below on the other (https). I cannot see
any difference in how I have set up the application pool, and the messages
below do not shed any light on the matter. Can you help me locate what the
issue is? Thanks. The error message follows (the link below didn't help at
all):

The identity of application pool, 'SBAApps' is invalid. If it remains
invalid when the first request for the application pool is processed, the
application pool will be disabled. The data field contains the error number.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
The identity of application pool 'SBAApps' is invalid, so the World Wide Web
Publishing Service can not create a worker process to serve the application
pool. Therefore, the application pool has been disabled.

The account needs:
* "Log on as a service" (Local Security Settings -User Rights
Assignment)
* Membership in the "IIS_WPF" group (Computer Management -Local
Users and Groups)
* "Read & Execute", ""List Folder Contents" and "Read" permissions on
the codebase (Explorer -Properties)
* read/write access to the assigned temp area

I have also seen reference to (but never needed)
* start CGI processes: adjust memory quotas for a process and replace
a process level token
* access to the "Logon local" policy group

Watch out: the app-pool window in MMC does not auto-refresh; once an
app-pool has died it must be manually resurrected to try again.

Hope this helps; post back to let us know...

Application Start Delay

by: Jeremy S | last post by:

I have written an ASP.NET application that performs very well. I make heavy use of the Cache and otherwise minimize the number of round trips to to the db. I couldn't be happier with the performance - except when the application first starts. When hitting my Web server over the Internet there is a delay waiting for the first page. I suspect that the App Pool is starting up as well as my particular ASP.NET Web application. I should note that...

Avoid Application Timeout

by: Atul Shukla | last post by:

Hi, How can I avoid application timeout? Generally a web application time out is 20 minutes, however, we can define this timeout in web.config to any number of minutes. After giving 500 minutes of time out which is about little more than 8 hours, the page expires in less than 2 hours. I am confused here how to avoid this timeout problem. I just dont want my page to be expired, should work similar to windows application. Possible?

We currently use Session State InProc, but if I were to choose to move the existing application to SQL instead, would the only change in the application be the SessionState setting within web.config? I know I'd also need to setup our MS SQL database to handle sessions (detailed in MS Article 317604), but outside of this, is there...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
