Answer 1

IIS comes with a feature called Rapid-Fail Protection. By default an App Pool is configured to become disabled if a worker in the pool crashes 5 times within a 5 minute span.

The thresholds of this setting are able to be modified by right clicking on the App Pool going to Advanced Settings and modifying the 'Rapid-Fail Protection' properties. However, this event indicates that there is likely a serious issue in your application that needs to be resolved.

I got tensed about this issue and finally i got solved.

Please make sure that the following option is correct in Advance Settings in Application pool.

Application Pools>Default Application Pool > Right click and select Advance Settings.

And then check whether the option "Enable 32 bit applications" has been set as "False". It should be False

I got solved by did the above change.

Answer 3

It's a registry permission issue. This should help: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885654

You might also need to add read/write permissions for NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE (or NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM or the account used by your application pool) to c:\Windows\TEMP. See http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winservergen/thread/176e9b6d-7b1b-4667-b55e-330bec133f37/
