I have been away for a week and just took a look at the event viewer. I have a ton of errors, the same two repeated over and over again, and the message is vague. I think it may have to do with the core. Anyone seen these errors before?

It seems that these errors are always preceded by the following events:

  6/29/2007 7:48:34 AM   Application Started        ...
Server Name: TRD-SVR14
  6/28/2007 6:48:09 PM   Application Shutting Down       Shutdown Details: The AppDomain shut down because of the hosting env ...
Shutdown Details: The AppDomain shut down because of the hosting environment.
Server Name: TRD-SVR14

 

Would changing web.config as shown below, cause the application to shut down?

            <forms name=".DOTNETNUKE" protection="All" timeout="20" slidingExpiration="true" cookieless="UseCookies"/>
        </authentication>

Well, I had a look in my event viewer, and saw plenty of these two errors! They always came together, but they were not caused by a specific preceding event.

I upgraded from DNN 4.5.1 to 4.5.3 on 6/1/2007, but the first of the exceptions occurred on 6/20/2007, so I can't say if they came with a certain DNN version...

At least these exceptions don't seem to cause visible errors on the website.

 

[EDIT:]
Just discovered that Tigris7 opened a second thread about this:

We experienced the identical problem.

 

One afternoon, quite randomly, the custom modules we created disappeared for the administrator account.

We had to recreate a new administrator account for her to see them again....

 

Cryptic.

 

I checked all the module/tab database tables and nothing seemed unusual.

This sounds pretty bad.

Any news on this would be great.

Cheers

Andrew

I am getting similar messages in the event log (see below).  Also, my site takes over a minute to load after it has not been hit in 20+ minutes, which is ridiculous.  Any ideas on what might be going on or what I should check?
