On a newly installed Server 2003 Standard whenever you try to access the
default web site a "Service Unavailable" is returned. Upon further
investigation the "DefaultAppPool" has stopped. This is only solved by
changing the "Application Pool Identity" to "Local System". Use of any other
setting, including a Domain Admin, results in the continued failure of the
"DefaultAppPool".
When using the default "Network Service" identity several of the following
errors are logged:
