Error profiling ASP.NET on Windows Server 2003

Brian Donahue

Hi John,

There is a difference in the way that IIS 6 works as compared to IIS 5.
I will send you a patch for Profiler that works with IIS 6, but you have to
configure your IIS to run in IIS 5 isolation mode.

Hello,

ANTS Profiler 2.0 and up now support IIS 6 without the need to run in IIS 5 isolation mode. The only requirement is that the DefaultAppPool is available. (Your web app doesn't need to be running in the default application pool; the app pool just needs to be present.)
