ASP.NET not working (Deadlock?)

[David2e]

This just happened last night and I'm running in circles trying to fix it.

It seems everything is working on the server except ASP.NET. Websites all completely down that use this (others/static work though)

The only errors I've been able to see in the Event log are:

Application Warning

Source: W3SVC-WP
Description: ISAPI 'c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll' reported itself as unhealthy for the following reason: 'Deadlock detected'.

System Warning

Source: W3SVC-WP
Description: A process serving application pool 'DefaultAppPool' exceeded time limits during shut down. The process id was '2712'.

Starting to tear my hair out on this. Any help at all would be great.

Thanks

David

Have you tried setting the website to use the older 1.1 version? What happens when you do this?

Yes I did. The website/s tried to load - a good sign - but with the usual error, as they need ASP.NET 2.

After trying various restarts (IIS, DNS, Server) and adjusting the Websites, AppPools etc... I'm tryignt a fresh install of ASP.NET.

If that doesn't work... then I'll be at a complete loss for ideas.

 

[David2e]

Solved it.

I ended up having to completely reinstall ASP.NET 2+. There was some software I needed to do this to do a clean up of ASP.NET to remove it properly first but now everything is ok.

It has happened again... twice and this time I have been unable to fix it.

The sites run on ASP.NET 2 and when I try to view them I can't get anything running (eg. see

http://www.hnicholsons.co.uk).

If I change it to ASP.NET 1 in IIS, then they try to open but get an error (needs v2).

I've set it up now to get that datadump... but I can't even get the websites running again with ASP.NET 2.

Any ideas?

How about restarting IIS? Restarting the server?

I've tried the basics. Restarting IIS, DN, the server... restarting relevant services. Redoing the IIS Website setup.

Not getting anywhere with it. Trying a 3rd time reinstall now.

Hi,

I just tried your website

http://www.hnicholsons.co.uk

and this isn't serving at all at the moment?

Have tried the site internally? For example

http://SERVERNAME/website/page.html

???

From the outside it implies the host name

http://www.hnicholsons.co.uk

does not exist??

It is working again now. If (when) it happens again I do have it set to do a dump... which will hopefully work.

I've also stripped it down a little, removed the test/development site I had running alongside - just see how it goes this time.

It is stressful trying to get it all back up asap... and I do appreciate your time replying!

I had tried on the server, but the exact same thing - just as though it didn't exist. Happy it is up but I will need to get it sorted once and for all.

Cheers

David

Glad your up and running again, does seem strange it keeps stopping. Keep us posted.

Thanks Gavin

It's done it again... and I've tried about 6 times in slightly different ways to clear and reinstall ASP.NET... but no luck at all now.

Is there maybe a way to test if ASP.NET 2+ is actually working properly?

Could it be in IIS6? Is this something that can also be cleared and easily reinstalled?

Thanks
