We have a couple of Umbraco websites where the application pools are spontaneously shutting down.We believe the problem to be related to a memory leak within the sites but we are having issues identify where exactly this is happening.
The event viewer on the server always returns "A process serving application pool 'xxx' exceeded time limits during shut down. The process id was 'nnnnn'.".
Here are things we have already tried:
Setting up the debug diagnostic tool to catch any crash or hangs on application pools.
Running ANTS Memory Profiler to help identify where any possible memory issues may arise.
Utilising the built-in Umbraco debug trace to determine if the issue is within macros.
The debug diagnostic tool always has the following two error messages:
w3wp__PID__9904__Date__04_01_2011__Time_02_22_11PM__207__Second_Chance_Exception_E0434F4D.dmp

Each website has its own individual application pool. We are running on Windows Server 2003, MSSQL Server 2005 and IIS6.
Has anyone experienced similar issues before or having any ideas what might be causing this?
I had similar problems wich I found out were related to the appPool consuming all it's memory. Maybe that's not your issue, but maybe worth checking out...
Memory leaks and shutdown issues
Hi all,

Many thanks,

Friendly bump. Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?

Yes the app pool is crashing, which is caused by this leak and we are having to manually recycle everytime.
We still have yet to find the root of this problem.
Hi have you found any way forward with this? I am having similar difficulties.
My site is running 4.6.1...
Hi,
I would also like to know, if you found the reason for this,
I am running 4.7.1
thanks
