whyisthiswrong
Posts: 2
Hi there,
details:
Windows Enterprise server 2008
IIS 7.0
asp.net application on Asp.net 2.0, and .NET 3.5 hosten in IIS.
Trying to launch ants performance profiler (version 4.3.0.196)
Always getting exception:
tried both classic .NET pool and integrated.
Security Event log shows nothing interesting, some special logons.
While application log shows:
Same goes for IIS, or for other port. Firewall is turned off. PC is in domain.
Any more info needed?

I'm sorry that the profiler isn't working for your application.
I think what's happening is that the modified applicationHost.config file that the profiler is making isn't valid in some way.
I wonder if you could send me your original applicationHost.config, which can be found in:
C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config
And any of our modified copies, which can be found at:
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Red Gate\ANTS Performance Profiler 4
and are named like tmp*******.config
IF you could send these to support@red-gate.com and reference this forum thread in the email, that would help.
Thanks,

While looking at windows server 2008, we found a way to get the same exception that you have. An instance of the "w3wp.exe" process may have been left by a previous profiling session exiting incorrectly. This simply needs to be ended in task manager (or by restarting the computer) to fix the problem if this is the case.
Hope that helps,
