Hi,
I'm implementing the unhandled exception HttpModule described in
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911816 but have a few questions...

The module fires correctly and writes an error to the event log, however the
aspnet_wp.exe service crashes and restarts about 10 seconds later anyway!
Maybe I misunderstood but I thought this wasn't just logging the error but
would "handle" it - so that the service stays up and I can troubleshoot it
later?

Could anyone help with this?

Thanks.
 
Its just a logger as far as I know.

The purpose is to provide you information you would not elsewise have if you
didn't use this logger.

You still need to address the issue, and not use it as your "catch it and
don't screw anything else up" (appdomain, don't recycle) mechanism.

Find out the "why" and fix it, that's the solution.
