Recently i received the error log below in my windows Server 2012.

Some consequences like web site down happens and a 503 error are launching in the browser.

I caught up on updates in OS and i have searching for this problems, that let me to do some options like:

  • Remove net.tcp, net.pipe, net.msmq, and msmq.formatname bindings
  • Install KB2640103 hotfix, that needs to ask for Microsoft Support Customer.

I'm not an expert in Windows Server but would like to understand the situation and receive more comments.

I solved my problem in 5 steps:

1) I installed a software to get a crash dump. In this case i downloaded the DebugDiag Tools.

2) I configured the DebugDiag Tool following these instructions in this post . I didn't need to install WindDbg and Symbols.

After the installation it was configured in this way:

  • Selecting a Crash rule
  • Selecting a IIS App pool (w3wp.exe)
  • Selecting the app pool of my application
  • Configuring a Stack over flow exception (0xc00000fd) in Advanced Settings/Exceptions and finishing the setup.

3) I waited for a first crash dump to be created in a folder location. Ex: C:\DebugDiag\Logs When the crash dump was created, i used the DebugDiag Analysis to open the file from C:\DebugDiag\Logs and a HTML report has been created.

4) In report was easy to see the problem. In my case, there was a recursive function without stop conditional. It was crashing the w3wp process.

5) Our team fixed the bug and solved the problem
