Websites hosted under Multiple IPs

Evan

IIS 6.0
Multiple Websites on single web server under different IPs and AppPools
Ants Profiler 2.6

Problems profiling a .Net Website. When we turn on the profiling for one of the sites, it hijacks all web requests going to the machine and sends it to the profile web site (instead of the other sites under the other IPs).

We changed the AppPool identity for our site to run under the Network Service account and changed the red gate service to run under our app pool id/pwd. We have a DefaultAppPool (Network Service) but we don't use it for any of our sites.

Not using host headers. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello Evan,

Can you have a peek at IIS admin and see if all of the application pools had restarted after you started profiling the web application?

Evan

Yes, restarted everything with same results

I'm guessing that your default website is the one that's answering and it is configured to answer the IP address [All Unassigned]. In that case, the problem is more than likely that the other websites on the server simply didn't restart like they were supposed to. Is that what's happened?

Evan

none of the apps are under default website, all have static IPs (none have all unassigned). But we do have a Default website (also has static IP assigned) which isn't being used, running under DefaultAppPool.

the problem is more than likely that the other websites on the server simply didn't restart like they were supposed to

Not sure what you mean. All app pools and websites are shutdown when profiling runs.

Hi Evan

Once you start to profile IIS should shut down and restart. It may be that it is not restarting correctly because of the multiple ip addresses.
Can you stop the sites you don't wish to profile before running profiler and see if that helps.
