Internet Services Hang When Attempting Shutdown Of Individual Websites

It is highly recommended that you do not shut down your websites individually. Instead, you should shut them down collectively by stopping the IIS Admin Service, restarting the IIS Admin Service, and then restarting the individually managed services.

  1. To stop the IIS Admin Service, execute the following command from the command line:
  2. c:\>net stop iisadmin /y

    Alternatively, you can shutdown the IIS Admin Service from the Services menu:

    1. Under the Start menu, select Control Panel.
    2. Click on Services.
    3. Select IIS Admin Service.
    4. Click Stop.

    This will shutdown all internet services managed by the IIS admin process, including FTP services, WWW services and SMTP services.

  3. To restart the ISS Admin Service, execute the following command from the command line:
  4. c:\>net start iisadmin

    Alternatively, you can restart the services from the Services menu:

    1. Under the Start menu, select Control Panel.
    2. Click on Services.
    3. Select IIS Admin Service.
    4. Click Start.

  5. To restart the individual services, execute the following command from the command line:
  6. c:\>net start w3svc

    Alternatively, you can restart the individual services from the Services menu:

    1. Under the Start menu, select Control Panel.
    2. Click on Services.
    3. Select World Wide Web Publishing.
    4. Click Start.

IIS 4.0 Stop Problem

After installing a Policy Agent on IIS 4.0, stopping individual web sites may occasionally lead to memory corruption messages. You can ignore these messages and restart the IIS server.
