Background
When trying to run a web application or web API, there may be times when you get the below message,
I found a much quicker fix for this issue than the other solutions that are available online.
Solution
Follow the below steps for a quick fix,
- Stop the application.
- Make sure no other asp.net / web api applications are running. If they are please stop them as well.
- Open run, by pressing Windows Key + R .
- Then type iisreset in the textbox and press ok.
- A command prompt window might open and do some background processing, wait for it to complete.
- Wait for the command prompt window to close automatically (usually happens quite quickly).
- Now go back to the web application and try to run the application, it should run.
Note
Only do this on local / dev machines, do not try this on the Server as it might impact any other running application.
