Website crashing on startup. Could not find file 'C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\abcdef.dll'
Hi Adam,
Have you tried setting the apppool to never idle?
I have had some strange problems (not this specific one) with sites that had the idle option set. But after switching it of and just adding a recycling each night it all worked itself out.

Thanks Petter, I will look into trying that. Currently I am looking at the XML Serilization diagnostics as per here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/andreal/archive/2009/04/18/could-not-find-file-c-windows-temp-dll.aspx
The server has alot of webites running on it and the article stage 'too many application pools/web applications and/or you’re overloading the desktop heap' could be causing the issue.

We have started to experience a problem with one of our episerver websites which sometimes fails to start when either performing an applicaiton pool rececly or is awaking from being idle.
The errors appear to be around XML Serilization processes in the core of EPiServer when starting the website. Here is an example error and stack trace.
Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException

The errors can in their source, but all appear to be orientatneted around xml serilization.
The problem has onlt recently started to occur and typically an application pool recycle will resolve the issue.
The website is running on EPiServer 6 R2, Windows 2003, .NET 2.0.
Has anybody else encoutered this happening before of have any suggestions of a solution?
