Quartznet: Quartz.Net stopped when IIS app-pool recycle

Created on 7 Jul 2014 · 3Comments · Source: quartznet/quartznet

I am using Quartz.Net in my asp.net application and we are ending up with IIS recycling and it stops working.

We hosted our application in external hosting provider, so we cannot play with config file explained http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/auto-start-asp-net-applications-vs-2010-and-net-4-0-series

Is there a way to automatically make the Quartz.Net alive when IIS restarted/recycled?
Tried following this http://weblog.west-wind.com/posts/2007/May/10/Forcing-an-ASPNET-Application-to-stay-alive . But not working

Hello, 2017 here. From IIS 8, there is a new feature, "Application Initialization" which can be installed server side.

Install the feature, and it will automatically enable preload on all of your sites.

This is not an issue with Quartz it's issue with IIS and its behavior. You should try to implement one of the workarounds described in the links or constantly ping you web site to keep it alive.
