Modify application after Deployment

[stefbek97]

Hello Everyone,

I am having a little problem. After publish my ASP.Net project to my server I have to recycle the Application pool in IIS. Whenever I modify the code i get a compilation error and have to Recycle the application pool again. Is that the normal process for applications after deployment?

Every time you modify the application the application pool is restarted.
So yes this is normal.

Whenever you make a change to the .NET code (your VB or C#) code [edit] and then build your website (precompile the application) [/edit] the application pool is reset. Whenever you modify the web.config file, the application pool is reset.

Should the application pool reset itself? Because I get a compilation error when I try to access the modified page online. So what I usually do is open the app pool and manually refresh,reset recycle it. Then my application works. Is that how it should be?

[Frinavale]

Yes it will reset itself.
It might help if you posted what the error says.....

Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

Compiler Error Message: The compiler failed with error code -1073741502.

I have googled this error but none of the solutions seem to work for me. Only restarting the app pool. Any Ideas?

Try precompiling the website before publishing it...?

[stefbek97]

What if the website is already published and located on the server. I open the project in visual studio, make the changes , click save and thats it. Time to restart the app pool.

Is the project located on the web server?
Try right clicking on the project name in the Solution Explorer and clicking "build".
This will compile all of your code and will definitely reset the application domain (if changes are made to the code).

[stefbek97]

Yest it is located on the web server.Have done that. Still does not work. Just to clarify the restart I have to do is in IIS app pool.

[Frinavale]

That's the way I work as well.

It makes absolutely no sense for ASP.NET to compile your code if you have already pre-compiled it. The ASP.NET compiler does not compile your code "on the fly" when there is as cached, precompiled version available.

Are you absolutely sure that you built the solution without error after making code changes?

[stefbek97]

Absolutely no errors or warnings.

I'm not sure what's wrong...
Have you tried creating a new website (or virtual directory) using IIS and publishing the application to that website instead?

[stefbek97]

Could it be because the home page to the web site is written in classic asp It compiles fine even after modifying?But the new page, the one i created and modify is asp.net. Could it be that they don't mesh together until restarting the app pool?
