I got an issue with IIS and recycle. I explain what we want, and what we did.
What We want: we have an ASP.net WebSite, it executes a code in "Application_Start" which loads in memory a lot of data. It take few minutes. Then, we want to start the Application Pool automatically early morning, and the application pool keeps opened all the day.
What We Did:
With a scheduled task, we launch this line in a .bat at 07AM:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://xxxxxx
We configured the application Pool like that:
Recycling conditions at fixed Intervals: 720minutes
Idle TimeOut: 700 minutes
What it does:
At 07AM, the pool is started. it works fine all the morning.
And the pool recycled between 12PM and 2PM everyday. And it restarts without any connection by people. Alone.
With the 720minutes, it should restart only from 7PM, no?
We are in IIS 7.5 and windows Server 2008
Thanks a lot!
