    Windows Task Scheduler


    I have an application on a web server that occasionally hangs when a user tries to access and will eventually time out. A restart will fix the issue, but I wanted to put some sort of task in place that would automatically restart if it detected a lag/hang/timeout in the application as opposed to someone going into the web server and doing it manually.

    Does anyone know how I could set this up using the windows task scheduler? I see a way to preform an action when a specific event is logged, but I'm not sure how to configure it to pick up on a specific application timing out/hanging.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    What webserver software? Is it a php application, or sort of plugin so a DLL? Please explain.

    Waht fixes it, simply restarting webserver or the application?

    It is a web application and it will require a restart of the service, which I already have a custom .bat file to handle.

    So not a webserver at all?

    It's a service listening on a tcp/ip port ... just like a mailserver or database server?

    web server is a piece of software like apache or IIS ?
    Or do you mean by saying web server: The hardware where I host web applications

    Whole IIS is hanging than, or only the application (is it a DLL?)?

    Are you simply killing the web application process and restarting it to make it work again (for some time)?

    Is it in a loop, or just freezing?

    Right, just killing the process then restarting. It's not the whole server or IIS that's freezing, just one application.
