IIS6 Application Pool - Unspecified Error / Service Unavailable
|
|
| Colin Bowern 2004-12-29, 7:52 am |
| Can't seen to figure out why the server is returning Service Unavailable to
the web browser and Unspecified Error for the application pool. It is using
a domain user account (member of IIS_WPG, temporarily added to Domain Admins
/ Administrators) and IIS is running on a domain controller. My event log
is outputting three errors in the system log:
---
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W3SVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1021
Date: 12/29/2004
Time: 8:14:18 AM
User: N/A
Computer: MYCOMPUTER
Description:
The identity of application pool, 'Test Pool' is invalid. If it remains
invalid when the first request for the application pool is processed, the
application pool will be disabled. The data field contains the error
number.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
Data:
0000: 80070569
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W3SVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1057
Date: 12/29/2004
Time: 8:16:52 AM
User: N/A
Computer: MYCOMPUTER
Description:
The identity of application pool 'Test Pool' is invalid, so the World Wide
Web Publishing Service can not create a worker process to serve the
application pool. Therefore, the application pool has been disabled.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: W3SVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1059
Date: 12/29/2004
Time: 8:16:52 AM
User: N/A
Computer: MYCOMPUTER
Description:
A failure was encountered while launching the process serving application
pool 'Test Pool'. The application pool has been disabled.

The event log and error messages seem rather vague and silly in my opinion.
I have been through KB article 812614, REGMON, FILEMON, and other tools with
no luck. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

| I seem to have resolved the issue by recreating the application pool account
(delete / recreate). Still not sure of the root cause.

| Hi,
You need to get into the local policy (in mmc add the group policy of
the local machine snap in)
and then go to Computer config/windows settings/user rights assignments
and add under Act as part of the operating system, what ever user id
your using to start the application pool
DRC
Alphabet collector (MCP,MCSD,MCSA,NECD ECT.)

| I've been encountering the same error. I have added the Domain account
into "Act as part of the operating system", have added the user to the
iis_wpg, and even created a brand new pool to test this on, etc etc. I
still get the same error. With one domain user (mine) the pool runs
fine; with the one set up especially for this application/system, the
pool errors out. I am told the only difference in these IDs is that
mine has expiry passwords and the 'system' one doesnt, and that the
'system' one has to be granted permission to the devices on which it
will run (which I'm also told it has).
Anyone have addtional ideas I can try?
Drew.

| FWIW, I'm also having the same trouble. I've also added the domain
account (both mine personal account and a non-expiring "faceless"
account) into the "Log on as a service" group in the Local
Policies/User Rights Assignment. No luck. I still get the exact same
event log and the pool gets disabled.

| Listen Everyone, I was facing the same problem and what I found on this discussion were only workarounds but there was no one to answer the real cause of this problem.
The real cause of the application pool not starting is that you Application pool account's password has either changed or the password has expired.
First Step findout your application pool UserID
Go to IIS:
Check the Identity Tab for your application pool account(leave those application pools where the app. pool identity is predefined ). In my case my configurable UserID was MOSS and the password of this UserID had expired. In your case the UserID can be dif
ferent.
Second Step reset the Application pool Userid's password
Goto Active Directory:
Its possible that someone else might have changed the password for MOSS ID, or based on policy password might have expired.
So now change the password for MOSS UserID as it is your application pool ID.
Third Step
Goto IIS Again:
For ALL application pools go to the identity tab and next to your Application Pool UserID (ie MOSS in my case) write the new password.
Due to some problem the password changed and it is not updated in IIS automatically so IIS is unable to start application pools, start throwing Unspecified Error / Service Unavailable.

| Hi, I've just been reading this thread, as I am facing the same problem on different servers within an IIS farm (24 in total). the root cause seems to be a password expiry issue. However, I checked the Identity settings for the AppPools, they are all runn
ing with "Network Service" account.
Any thoughts on this one???
