AspEnableApplicationRestart

  • Article

The AspEnableApplicationRestart determines whether an ASP application can be automatically restarted. When changes are made to Global.asa or metabase properties that affect an application, the application will not restart unless the AspEnableApplicationRestart property is set to true.

When this property is changed from false to true, the application immediately restarts.

IIS also provides an ADSI method, IIsWebDirectory.AspAppRestart (ADSI), which can be used to restart the application.

This property is an application-level property.
