Can I prevent IIS from recycling if /bin changes?
IIS recycles an ASP.net Application Pool automatically whenever either the /bin folder or the web.config file changes.
Is there a way to disable that feature? This is IIS 7.5 running in Integrated mode, and the underlying intention is to allow applications (with Full Trust) to update and restart themselves.
Solution 1:
Yes you can.
In the Application Pool > Advanced Settings > Recycling section, set the Disable Recyling for Configuation Changes to True.
