 Topic: IIS Application Pools is recycling too often?
Posted: 29 November 2010 at 3:25pm |
Maybe dumb question here, but have to try to figure this out.
Apparently the red "denied error" can be caused by the App Pool recycling too often?
Problem I've had is if they don't recycle, the site slows down.
How often is too often and is there a work around for this?

On the larger forums we have which have 200 to 300 active users we set the App Pool to Recycle at around 5am every morning.
On this support forum we set the App Pool to never recycle as the traffic levels are usually lower at 30 to 100 active users.
We never see a slow down in performance with any of these app pool settings for forums, however if you are seeing performance issues it could be caused by other applications on your website. To avoid this you could create a Virtual Directory/Application for the forum folder and place it in it's own application pool.

I found they recycle every 24 hours.
I will ask for it's own application pool.
Thanks

My forum users (avg: 150 active users simultaneous) are reporting random errors like this.
Is it the one you are mentionning ? I have set the APP_RECYCLING to 1 x daily @ 5am .
What are my options to fix this ?
Convert to SQL_sessions ?

You have made some changes to the software so it is hard to know what to suggest. It does look like an issue with the recycling but Bruce or others will be better to answer this for you

I'm suffering from the same issue. I'm hosting at Winhost.com, which is the new "variable" since this started happening. I've opened a support ticket with them to inquire about app pool settings, since I don't have direct access to them.
I and many of my users report that they read one page of posts, then try to post a quick reply and then get this message. They must press refresh, which keeps them logged-in. If they are quick, they can post their reply. When this happens, all the posts are marked as "new". It makes catching-up on new threads very difficult, and participating in conversations even more difficult.

Could you also check that your database server also has the same time as the web server as we have found that having database server set to a different time can cause issues with dropped sessions.
A new database date function has been created for the next release which will force all dates to be set web server side to prevent issues.
