IIS 7 stop responding

frankjperez — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 05:00:00 GMT

Hi,

I'm having problems with my WCF site. In this sites, I've been using WCF REST Services, and once in a week (sometimes sooner, sometimes later), the IIS suddenly stops responding. The response for all requests is a 401 error

401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials

I'm not using any kind of authentication rule in this site. I tried to active the IIS Request Filter, but the action of activating the filter solves the error. An IISRESET also solves the error. The windows logs doesn't report any kind of error, and the IIS logs looks under normal activity (I don't think this could be a DOS attack)

I don't know where else to look for. Any help would be really appreciated

Thanks

Problem with ASP.net HttpHandler + Reflection + Application Pool Recycling in IIS (6 and 7)

gahorn — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 05:00:00 GMT

I have a problem with an ASP.net HttpHandler that needs to dynamically load an assembly.

The following handler tries to find a subclass of the (customly defined) class ServiceBase according to a specified GET parameter.

public class ServiceHttpHandler : IHttpHandler, IRequiresSessionState
{
    public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
    {
        //get service name
        string serviceName = context.Request.Params["serviceName"];

        //try to find class with service implementation
        var types = from a in AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies()
                    from t in a.GetTypes()
                    select t;
        var requiredBaseType = types.FirstOrDefault(t => t.Name == serviceName + "Base" && t.BaseType == typeof(ServiceBase));
        var serviceImplementations = types.Where(t => !t.IsAbstract && t.BaseType == requiredBaseType).ToArray();
        if (serviceImplementations.Length == 0)
            throw new InvalidOperationException(string.Format("Missing service implementation for {0}.", serviceName));
        if (serviceImplementations.Length > 1)
            throw new InvalidOperationException(string.Format("More than one service implementation found for {0}.", serviceName));

        //create service implementation instance and execute operation
        ServiceBase svc = (ServiceBase)Activator.CreateInstance(serviceImplementations[0]); //!!! the _cast_ in this line causes a problem after app pool recycling !!!
        svc.ExecuteOperation(...);
    }
}

The abstract base class ServiceBase resides in its own assembly which is referenced by the assembly containing the HTTP handler and the class(es) derived of ServiceBase:

public abstract class ServiceBase
{
    public void ExecuteOperation(...)
    {
        ExecuteOperationInternal(...);
    }

    protected abstract void ExecuteOperationInternal(...);
}

When hosting this in IIS (6 or 7 - same problem with both versions) everything works fine until the application pool assigned to the web application is recycled for the first time (either manually or automatically after the specified interval). After this every request to the handler fails with an InvalidCast exception "Unable to cast object of type 'System.Object' to type '<MyCustomNamespace>.ServiceBase'." thrown at the line marked above.

This maybe means that after the recycling of the worker process only the first assembly with the actual handler implementation is loaded and the second assembly with the implementation of ServiceBase will not be loaded (correctly) anymore.

After the problem occurred, the application needs to be redeployed(!) in order to be put to work again. Even restarting IIS etc. does not help in this case.

Can anyone help me here?

Windows 7 IIS Different to Vista?

Gimbal5401 — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT

I have a pre-compiled site that runs locally on several laptops.

Using Vista, all is well and everything runs as expected.

We have, however, just been given 10 new laptops to install the site on and they are Windows7.

This seems to be a problem. all i get is the dreaded 'the page has not been pre-compiled' message.

The code/files etc are identical to the ones on the vista machines and i've checked the IIS settings and all is the same there. I've checked the permissions on the folders and they are all the same.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what else i could check?

My boss is breathing down my neck to get these new laptops up and running as soon as possible and i'm all out of ideas.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Caching MVC Routes Using IIS 7

kengineer — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT

We're trying to add caching to our MVC application using the IIS 7 Caching Module. However, the problem that we're running into is that the IIS 7 Caching module asks that you provide a file extension when you register a new cache rule. Since this is MVC, there is not file extension, just routes. Does anyone know if it is possible to use IIS 7 caching for MVC? We realize we can use the caching features built into Asp.Net, but we curently would prefer to control the caching at the web server.

Hi Benson,

regarding post at: http://forums.asp.net/p/1154573/1900398.aspx

I found your post helpful in the ASP.NET Forum but the link you provided to "create a Website in IIS" is broken. I can't find the appropriate info anywhere. Could you please redirect me to the updated link or resource?

Greatly appreciated

Re: How to create subdomain web site using VS2008

Critters — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT

As was mentioned, you can use two separate projects for your domain and your admin domain. Once the projects are completed you need to create two different websites on your web server and have one configured to direct users to one project, and the other configured to direct users to the other.
