The pool should be set for the following:- enable 32-bit applications - TRUE
- managed pipeline mode - CLASSIC

These settings are necessary, based on everything I have seen, for ANY ASP-based application.

	Can someone call me from your company to discuss web hosting my store. I also want to hire someone to review that the code is clean to rule out memory leaks and the sort. I am getting the error that when I edit an existing order and a product's options do not show up in the edit to adjust. It just shows Blank pull down menus. Let me know. Thanks.

	Hi Josh, in terms of how to configure your server… it isn't practical for us have that manual. Some settings in IIS have a manual of their own. You also to have to consider the instructions would vary depending on scores of variables, such as hardware and hosting platform. For the average user I’d suggest starting off with a shared web host or certified ProductCart host. If you’re making the jump into VPN, there is NO substitution for using a professional server administrator. An admin from your web host (that is familiar with your environment) would be a great asset. Generally speaking, there are not a ton of things to change if you use the Web Platform Installer recommended IIS configuration. Mostly it is just enabling parent paths and single SSL sessions (both under ASP Settings), which is covered in the wiki. In terms of your memory we have a good article on the wiki, but 200mb+ is completely normal for an eCommerce application. If you open a ticket we can dig in more.

	It still leaves the question unanswered. Where is the exact specifications for setting up app pool. This is fundamental and oh so crucial to run the store and yet productcart omits it from set up requirements and hosting requirements and hence so many issues. Today's IIS7.5 server has many options to set - so there should be a list. The documentation needs to evolve with the server progress. I think I have it all correct, yet my site freezes often and I don't know why. How high can / should the app pool memory go if untouched and un recycled for say a week ? Mine goes to 300 + is that normal ? if not what is causing it ? Can someone at product cart check it / troubleshoot it ?

	To clarify, ProductCart runs on 64 just fine. The only issue is if you want to use 32 components, such as certain third party dlls for email and image sizing. Those must run in 32 mode. Your database should be a separate server and there is no reason it cannot be 64. I have setup ProductCart on 64 machines and 64 databases several times in the past to verify what I am saying is correct.

	I think Productcart could gain a lot of speed if it could run as a 64-bit app with 64-bit SQL. The SQL service hits a size limit because of 32-bit. Am I wrong?

	I too switched from 2003 32bit to 2008 R2 64 bit. I am running the application pool in 32 bit mode as recommended, and am finding the application pool reaches a limit and freezes. It seems 32 bit has a 2-4 gig max regardless. When I try to set the application memory pool limit (Either Virtual or Private memory) to 500Kb it recylces at approximately 30Kb every time ! What is the set up for recycling on IIS7.5 ? Please someone HELP ! Incidentally, for other settings I Currently I have set the following.. Can anyone comment on what is advisable for productcart. I can't believe this information isn't stated somewhere ? Net Framework Version ; V2.0 (instead of V4. or No integrated code) Managed Pipeline Mode = Classic (instead of Integrated) Load User Profile = False Enable 32 bit = True Disable Overlapped Recycle = False Edited by josh - 04-March-2013 at 5:48am

	You have to run ASP applications in a 32-bit application pool when running the 64-bit OS. It may benefit you to host your site at a service where the folks know ProductCart and will be able to work efficiently at configuring your site.

	http://wiki.earlyimpact.com/how_to/move_store If you didn't follow that I would seriously consider starting the migration from scratch.
