I notice that the dll of my asp application keeps running even if nothing accesses it.
How do I shut 'em down??? :confused: I need to put a new version of the dll but i can't since the old one can't be deleted (it's still active). The only way i know up to now is to shutdown the pc (where the iis server runs). There must be another way?
This works for me, but it's probably not the correct way:
1. Totally stop IIS.
2. Unregister the old dll.
3. Rename the old dll to gibberish, as it still won't let you delete it.
4. Move the new dll in.
5. Register the new dll.
6. Restart IIS.
7. Test and make sure it works.
8. Delete the old dll the next time the computer gets restarted.

You've got it dead right. Don't forget though if the DLLs interface ie declarations haven't changed then all you need to do for the DLL update if compiled with Binary compatability, is copy it over the old copy on the PC.
Awesome. It was trial and error for me.Quote:

How do you 'totally stop' the IIS?Quote:

It didn't even let me rename the dll...:(
By the way, I have standard modules inside the dll, is this a problem?
