Re: aspnet_wp.exe could not be started

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



I have both an answer and a question to add to this thread.

I am having the same problem with my application. And I notice that the
ASP.NET application crashes when the aspnet_wp.exe restarts (when the worker
process restarts).

So to answer your question; Yes it's when either memory, process time, or a
session limit has exceeded, that the worker process restarts. Normally
however, the worker process re-cycles and produces a new thread to allow for
new sessions.

My problem is that I have already changed the application anonymous user to
ASPNET for the appropriate permissions. But the worker process still is
having problems restarting.

After un-installing, removing, re-installing the entire .NET library (and
its security patches) AND setting the appropriate permissions to ASPNET user,
I am still getting "aspnet_wp.exe could not be started" errors.


If you have any solution or a fix for this problem, I'd appreciate it if you
can keep me informed. My email is ezinder@xxxxxxxxx


Thank you in advance for all your help.
