I'm about to try and host my first umbraco site with an outside hosting company. Softsys seems to have great pricing and specs, but I'm a bit unsure about one thing - the app pool.
When I've asked for sites to be set up at work on our own servers, I've been asking the IT guys to set the worker process to 1 on the app pool. This solved some strange issues we were having a while back where a site would show a random version of the page content on refresh.
So my question is, do I need to still be setting these to a single app pool (4.0.4.2 / 4.5.1) and will I be ok with the shared app pool on softsys, or do I need to pay for a dedicated app pool? (the dedicated app pool is more expensive than the hosting)
any news on that, I got a problem with the same company. Once I set in IIS the umbraco site to work with a dedicated aplication pool .net 2.0(integrated) I got problems with client dependency.
I set up my account with them, and ran into an error message (I think during the install process even). A quick email to tech support asking them to check/set theapp pool to .Net 4 and it's been fine ever since. As an aside, I'm really happy with this host so far.

Hello,
any news on that, I got a problem with the same company. Once I set in IIS the umbraco site to work with a dedicated aplication pool .net 2.0(integrated) I got problems with client dependency.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Giorgos
I use softsys happily without a dedicated app pool.
Have done versions 3.x, 4.0.x (.net 2+integrated) and 4.5 (.net 4 + integrated).
The only problem I had was with the switch to 4.5 I had to specify the site to use full trust mode in the web.config
OK Paul
Thanks for the update!
