Hey all,

Not the brightest on IIS 6. One of my webservers is getting this error in
the event logs. The developers have been playing around and would like to
get some input on how to troubleshoot this issue. I have the concerning
error just below and then the series of errors before this one. Once the
service is stopped, everyone gets "Service Unavailable" and I have to reset
the website and all is good again. Please advise!!!

Looks like some code in the one of the sites is mucking things up and
resetting IIS. Do you have multiple sites on the box?

Re: Error 1002 - IIS 6 being automatically disabled... by Kristofer

Hi Greg,

There seems to be something wrong with the code that is running in
DefaultAppPool, which causes the application pool to disable itself,
because it cannot "fix" all the problems.

You should investigate the web applications that is set to use
DefaultAppPool, and see if they contain any coding errors. You might need
to isolate your web applications while doing this, to easier find the one
that is causing this to happen (DefaultAppPool is the default application
pool that is created, and used if you do not specify any other application
pool for your web applications).

Possibly causes can be bad drivers for database communication.

You can use IISState to find more information about why it is happening
for you:
http://www.iisfaq.com/default.aspx?view=P197

HTTPErr log file (%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\LogFiles\HTTPErr\) could also help
you troubleshoot this (to find out what request(s) caused the crash). Look
for requests before the 503s are returned.

Hope this helps you to find the cause of this.

Good Luck!
