| Description | aspnet_wp.exe could not be started. The error code for the failure is <error code>. This error can be caused when the worker process account has insufficient rights to read the .NET Framework files. Please ensure that the .NET Framework is correctly installed and that the ACLs on the installation directory allow access to the configured account. |
| Event Information | "According to Microsoft: CAUSE : This problem occurs when you have two different versions of some Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 files installed in the Application Center cluster. Two different versions of some files may be installed when you install a .NET Framework service pack on a member server. If you install a service pack on a member server and not on the controller, the controller replicates an earlier version of the Internet Server API (ISAPI) filter. This filter was updated on the member server when you installed the service pack. Therefore, on the member server, the System.web.dll file may be version 1.1.4322.2032 (SP1) and the ISAPI filter Aspnet_isapi.dll file may be version 1.1.4322.573. Note: This problem may occur when you install any .NET Framework service pack on a member server. RESOLUTION : To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods: • Make sure that the versions of the .NET Framework 1.1 match in the Application Center cluster. When you install the .NET Framework 1.1 service pack in the cluster, you must install the service pack on the cluster controller first. Then, you must install the service pack on all the member servers. • Remove the .NET Framework 1.1 service pack from the member server. Note: When you install a .NET Framework service pack, it is a good idea to turn off replication until you have installed the service pack on all the member servers" This information from some newsgroup post may help: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you run the patch from MS03-32-issue on a machine with ASP.NET V1.0, it works fine, it corrects the defect. According to Microsoft this problem should not appear in ASP .NET V1.1, but in my case this is exactly what happened. The batch file however, will not run on a machine with ASP.NET V1.1. To workaround this limitation here is how I modified the batch file to run on |
