IIS gives 503 Service Unavailable
in [IIS]
|
From: Fresno Bob on 18 Apr 2008 10:02 Hi I ugraded to Ultimate from Business Premium and IIS doesn't work any more I get a 503 error - Service Unavailable. I create an application pool and then a web site that uses it. When I go to access the page via localhost I get the 503 error and the app pool stops This is an IIS issue as it affects html pages and not just aspx. When I look in the event log I see the following error - The worker process for application pool '*******' encountered an error 'Cannot read configuration file ' trying to read global module configuration data from file '\\?\C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config', line number '0'. Worker process startup aborted. I have tried 1. Copying the applicationHost.config from an MS website in the config file was corrupted 2. Giving the Network Service read permissions to the C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config folder - however I was only successful with this once - I reinstalled IIS and now it won't let me add users to the folder. This is really frustrating - I paid a lot of money for this upgrade and a lot things, which I bought it for, don't work. Can anyone help regards, Chris.
From: Ken Schaefer on 17 Apr 2008 23:25 There is something wrong with your applicationHost.config file. This is the central IIS configuration file. If you don't have a working backup of this file, you could consider uninstalling IIS. Then deleting the existing config files in c:\windows\system32\inetsrv\config (you will need to use an elevated window to do this), and then reinstalling IIS. Also, install Vista SP1 (if you haven't already), as that has some fixes (apparently) for some apphost.config corruption issues.

From: Fresno Bob on 18 Apr 2008 13:24 Out of curiosity how do I do things like delete with an elevated privilage? Do you mean right click on e.g. Windows Explorer and run as Administrator.

From: Ken Schaefer on 18 Apr 2008 03:19 You can't do that, unfortunately. If you try to delete from within Explorer, hopefully you'll be prompted and then you can delete. If you are not prompted, and just get an Access Denied, then open Command Prompt using "Run as Administrator" and delete the files that way.
