Hmmm...there is a distinct lack of named locks around some cffile calls in a scheduled task. (Not my code.) A possible culprit?
The other difficulty here is that this was not happening until after some access changes had been made to allow a directory to be accessed by an anonymous web user for a scheduled task. There's nothing really that exotic going on. -----Original Message----- From: Dave Watts Sent: Friday, August 18, 2006 12:48 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF bringing down IIS Application Pool > Got a scenario I'm currently investigating.

The only part of CF that runs within the IIS application pool is the ISAPI filter and/or extension that is installed by the web server configuration utility. Generally, all that does is pass requests to the CF server, but I believe that it handles a more significant part of file uploads via CFFILE and downloads via CFCONTENT, so I'd look at those first.
