SUMMARY
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 for Windows 2000 introduces a new metabase property named "AspEnableApplicationRestart." This is used to enable or disable the automatic restart of applications when the Global.asa file is updated.
MORE INFORMATION
IMPORTANT: This article contains information about editing the metabase. Before you edit the metabase, make sure you understand how to restore it if a problem occurs. For information about how to do this, view the "Configuration Backup/Restore" Help topic in the Internet Services Manager Snap-In for the Microsoft Management Console (MMC).
WARNING: Editing the metabase incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from incorrect editing of the metabase can be solved. Edit the metabase at your own risk.
NOTE: You should always back up the metabase before you edit it.
In IIS version 4.0 and earlier, an application is restarted each time a change is made to the Global.asa file. In IIS 5.0 this is still the default behavior; however, it can be disabled by setting the "AspEnableApplicationRestart" value to FALSE for an application.
To disable or enable the automatic application restart for your default Web site, use the following steps:
- Open a Command Prompt session on your server.
- Change to your X:\InetPub\AdminScripts folder, where X is the drive that you specified for your IIS documents.
- Enter one of the following commands:
To disable application restart:CSCRIPT.EXE ADSUTIL.VBS SET W3SVC/1/ROOT/AspEnableApplicationRestart FALSE
Any changes that are saved to the Global.asa file will not take effect until the application is restarted.
To enable application restart:CSCRIPT.EXE ADSUTIL.VBS SET W3SVC/1/ROOT/AspEnableApplicationRestart TRUE
Changes saved to the Global.asa file will restart the application.
NOTE: Toggling the "AspEnableApplicationRestart" property to TRUE will restart the application.
