Server Application Unavailable

We have a WS Std 03 server running IIS 6.0 and ASP.NET 1.1.4322. It's
current with all service packs and updates. When we try to visit a .aspx
page running on the machine we get this:

"Server Application Unavailable
The web application you are attempting to access on this web server is
currently unavailable. Please hit the "Refresh" button in your web browser
to retry your request.

Administrator Note: An error message detailing the cause of this specific
request failure can be found in the application event log of the web server.
Please review this log entry to discover what caused this error to occur."

I can't find anything in the logs that is anything near the IIS server, or
ASP.NET.

A search on google finds this KB, but it has nothing to do with this server
and ASP.NET version. Even so, I've tried the recommendations, to no avail.
Any ideas?

Thanks!

Re: Server Application Unavailable

Are you sure you cannot find any error message in the Application Event
Log?

Start->Run, eventvwr.msc



Is the application pool started?

Re: Server Application Unavailable

Yes, I'm sure. There are other error messages but nothing from ASP.NET, or
IIS.

Re: Server Application Unavailable

Open IIS Manager and right click the root folder for this web application.

Re: Server Application Unavailable

We are having the same problem, the application seems to work fine till
recently we get this error "Server Application Unavailable" about twice every
day and restarting IIS server seems to solve the problem temporally. We used
to see error message in the application event log

The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( .NET
Runtime ) cannot be found. The local computer may not
have the necessary registry information or message DLL
files to display messages from a remote computer. The
following information is part of the event: .NET Runtime
version 1.1.4322.573- Setup Error: Failed to load
resources from resource file
Please check your Setup.

but now after our server admin cleaned the server, we get Server
application unavailable error without getting any error messages in the
application event log. What might cause this problem?

Re: Server Application Unavailable

Try using FileMon and RegMon tools. These will help you a lot. I also
recommend re-applying SP1.

Re: Server Application Unavailable

Thanks for the response. I've re-installed SP1. Didn't help. I've DLed
FileMon and RegMon but not sure what i'm looking for. When I load the web
page and look at the XMon nuthin comes up as an obvious error to me.

I've even found another KB article, but this doesn't apply since the SP1
includes the hotfix.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;8211 57

I'm not sure what else I can do. Basically have a nice Dell doorstop since
it's not working as a web server.

Re: Server Application Unavailable

Have you looked at your files in your web project/site and made sure
that aspnet can at least have read access?

Re: Server Application Unavailable

I had this same problem and was so frustrated with it I considered
shutting down my business! (not quite, but almost)

The fix for me was:

1. Start / Administrative Tools / Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1
Configuration
2. Expand "Runtime Security Policy"
3. Right click on all three child nodes (Enterprise, Machine, User) and
chose Reset...

Resetting those permissions fixed that dreaded "Server Application
Unavailable" message for me.

Re: Server Application Unavailable

We are still having the same problem even after installing SP1, it is
sporadic happens once or twice a week. what about your problem was it
consistent or sporadic?
