Our web app process is restarting regularly and we are unable to determine the reason.
When looking into Application Events (using the 'Diagnostics and solve problems' blade in the Azure Portal), there exists a bunch of the following Info logs by 'IIS AspNetCore Module'
Event ID 1005:
Failed to gracefully shutdown process '14040'.
Event ID 1001:
Application 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/myapplication__xxxx' started process '31628' successfully and is listening on port '17663'.
There is nothing fishy with general resource usage and nothing in our application logs.
What is the best way to troubleshoot the reason behind these process restarts?
EDIT 1:
After fiddling around with web logging in the Web App's Diagnostic Logs, I now get an error logged from W3SVC-WP after each restart, but the message is nonsense:
1<br/>5<br/>50000780
EDIT 2:
Event Id 2284 refers to this:
FailedRequestTracing module failed to write buffered events to log
file for the request that matched failure definition. No logs will be
generated until this condition is corrected. The problem happened at
least %1 times in the last %2 minutes. The data is the error.
I'm not sure if this could be related to our Diagnostic Logs configuration, but seems unlikely.
EDIT 3:
As per Brando Zhang's suggestion, I've used the Web App Crash Diagnoser extension and tried monitoring 2nd Chance Unhandled Exceptions on both my application process AND on w3wp, but nothing is dumped.
From how I understand it, 1st Chance Exceptions will not crash the process, so no need to monitor these.
Very likely application is crashing due to fatal exception and causing the restarts.
On Azure App Service platform.You can use the Diagnostics as a
Service (DaaS) to troubleshoot this
It can also do an analysis and tell you the root cause most of the time.More step by step infofrmation can be found on this msdn blog .Also refer tips for using crash diagnoser

I have a WCF application which consists in some async communications with ecternal services. When we start a new expedient, a new instance is created; it process data and send an xml to a external service and waits for the response. This response requires that a person review the xml and send the response so it usually it is delayed for a long time. For this reason, the workflow go to idle and we use persistence with AppFabric.
The fact is that sometime, when we receive the response, the next exception is raised:
The execution of the InstancePersistenceCommand named {urn:schemas-microsoft-com:System.Activities.Persistence/command}LoadWorkflowByInstanceKey was interrupted by an error.
Normally this error does not occur, it can occur very sporadically. However, we are trying to update the app to include a new functionality (it does not modify the workflow) but when the application is deployed to the server, the instances that were created with the old deployment and were waiting for the response, throw this exception when they receive the response from the external service. However, the instances initiated with the new deployment process the response without problem.
I have been looking for information about this problem but I haven't found much. Anybody can help me?
SOLUTION:
Thanks a lot for your answer, it may be helpful for me in the future. In this case, the problem was that I was updating an assembly version of one of the implicated project (to upload a nuget package) and for a reason that I don’t understand, the instances created with an old version raised this exception when the service with the new version had to manipulate the mentioned instances.
If I change the assembly version to upload the nuget and then set the original version and deploy with this version, everything works ok. Anybody knows what is the reason?
Thanks a lot.
This may be because there is a program running in the background and trying to extend the lock on the instance store every 30 seconds, and it seems that whenever the connection to the SQL service fails, it marks the instance store as invalid.
You can try <workflowIdle timeToUnload="0"/>, if it doesn't work you can look at the methods provided by other links.

Our app services are experiencing the problem, that they can’t be restarted by the hosting environment (ANCM).
The user is getting the following screen in that case:
Http Error 500.37
Our production subscription consists of up to 8 different app services and the problem can randomly harm one of them ore some of them.
The problem can occur several times a week, or just once a month.
The bootstrapping procedure of our app services is not time consuming.
The last occurrence of the problem has this log entries within the eventlog:
Failed to gracefully shutdown application 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/XXXXXXXXX'.
followed by:
Application '/LM/W3SVC/815681839/ROOT' with physical root 'D:\home\site\wwwroot' failed to load coreclr. Exception message: Managed server didn't initialize after 120000 ms
In most cases the problem can be resolved by manually stopping and starting the app service. In some cases we had to do that twice.
We are not able to reproduce that behavior locally.
The App Service Plan is S2 and we actually use just one instance.
The documentation of the Http error 500.37 recommends:
"You may need to stagger the startup process of multiple apps."
But there is no hint of how to do that.
How can we ensure that our app services are restarted without errors.
HTTP Error 500.37 - ANCM Failed to Start Within Startup Time Limit
You can try following approaches:
Approach 1: If possible, can try to move one app into a new App Service with a separate App Service plan, then check whether it can start as expected.
Please note that creating and using a separate App Service plan would be charged.
Approach 2: Increasing the startupTimeLimit attribute of the aspNetCore element.
For more information about the startupTimeLimit attribute, please check: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/host-and-deploy/aspnet-core-module?view=aspnetcore-3.1#attributes-of-the-aspnetcore-element
I want to deploy my WCF web Service on Azure plateform.
I have created a Storage account for my website, and also created a cloud Service and uploaded my package file and config file to the staging site.
But while uploading, The message displays
'Your staging deployment is starting. Hang on, the page will refresh once the deployment begins.'
I am waiting sice 2-3 hours and not getting the desired output.
Am I doing correctly? Or is there anything that I forgot?
Please Help...!
Most likely there is a problem in your code or the packaging that is causing the role to continuously restart. This is a fairly common problem, but there are a lot of possible causes (missing an assembly reference, an uncaught exception, the Run() method is exiting, a Startup Task is failing, or many other things). You need to gather more information to know exactly what the problem is and how to fix it.
There are many threads here on SO about this topic. There's also a Microsoft post discussing how to diagnose this type of issue. Those are good places to start.
I have migrated an application from WL 8 to WL 10 and set up my managed servers. They indicate that they are running, but when I try to access the site it throws a 404. This is my first time deploying anything on 10 so I could be missing something. Any ideas? Please let me know what additional information could be helpful. edit: I had this working, added a db connection and now it fails.

You got a weblogic.management.DeploymentException and this means that something went wrong in some server even if everything seems OK from the console.
Underlying error is from weblogic.management.configuration.JDBCSystemResourceMBeanImpl so I would review datasource config is appropiate for every target in your environment. Also check that datasource targets are the same as web application targets and JDBC drivers are available at managed servers classpath as well.
Try to log to the WebLogic Admin console and see what is the status of your application.
You can use the 'Testing' tab of your deployment to see the URL that the application has been deployed to. This will assist you in the troubleshooting process.
If you don't see anything here to test there are a few possible reasons, including the following:
The application failed to deploy and/or is not 'Active'
You are using a cluster and no managed servers are running
You have managed servers running but they are not in a 'RUNNING' state
I have created a web application in Apache Cocoon.This website is running properly but after every 3-4 days, it stops responding. It doesn't run until and unless, we restart the tomcat service. In the catalina.2011-05-09.log file, it shows following error:-
"May 9, 2011 3:17:34 AM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader clearReferencesThreads
SEVERE: The web application [/webresources] is still processing a request that has yet to finish. This is very likely to create a memory leak. You can control the time allowed for requests to finish by using the unloadDelay attribute of the standard Context implementation."
I am not been able to understand the cause of this problem. Can someone suggest me how to resolve this issue?
You are using a library that is starting one or more threads and is not properly shutting them down or releasing other resources captured by the thread. This often happens with things like Apache HTTP components (I get this error with Http Components) and anything that uses separate threads internally. What libraries are you using in your Cocoon application?
It is telling you the issue:
[...] is still processing a request that has yet to finish
You need to find out what that request is/is going to. One easy way is to have something like PsiProbe installed.
Also, it's not a bad idea to restart Tomcat every night. It can help alleviate these kinds of issues until you find the root cause.
