The asp worker process is failing to be created...
I am experiencing issues on 2 out of 3 XP boxes running WebServices in IIS 5.1 under the 2.0 Framework. These boxes were operating fine up until a few days ago (Automatic Update Day). Now they are very sporadic, generally giving the following browser error when attempting to navigate to the WSDL
<<<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 system event log of the web server. Please review this log entry
to discover what caused this error to occur.>>>
On other occasions, a lot less frequently, everything works just fine, however doing an IISReset during these times that everything is working correctly will cause the exceptions to return.
