Here is my scenario. I have a website running under AppPool1 and that works

  • 0

Here is my scenario. I have a website running under “AppPool1” and that works fine. I created a new application (“test”) within that site and set that to use “AppPool2”.

The problem is that http://mysite.com works, but http://mysite.com/test does not. I get a 500.19 error. If I switch it back to use “AppPool1” it works fine.

Am I misunderstanding the purpose of an application pool? I thought you could do what I’m trying to accomplish? Are the app pools only supposed to be assigned to separate sites, not applications within a site?

I’ve tried recreating the app pools and assigning permissions to the directory of the application with no success.

    Problem solved. Make sure your root folder has the IIS AppPool\apppoolname permissions on it as well. Even if the application is in a different directory
