I'm trying to put Cosign on server 2012R2 for the first time, and I'm 
hitting a fatal issue right out of the gate.  As soon as the module is 
registered, IIS no longer works as the app pool dies as soon as it tries 
to service a http request.  I have not even configured a site to use 
cosign yet, so the appearance is the module is not compatible with IIS 8.5?

Steps taken:
Download 3.1.1 zip for IIS7 from 
http://cosign.sourceforge.net/download.shtml
Copy the src/Cosign_Schema.xml file into 
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\schema
Copy the x64 CosignModule.dll file into C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv
Open an administrative command prompt and change directory to 
c:\windows\system32\inetsrv.
Enter this command:
appcmd install module /name:"Cosign" 
/image:"%windir%\system32\inetsrv\CosignModule.dll"

At that point, the expectation is that the webserver just keeps working 
as it has been as Cosign isn't even involved yet. Unfortunately, as I 
said the app pool dies because cosign causes a fatal issue.  From the 
Event Viewer:

Application: The Module name Cosign path 
C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\CosignModule.dll returned an error from 
registration.  The data is the error.
System: Application pool 'DefaultAppPool' is being automatically 
disabled due to a series of failures in the process(es) serving that 
application pool.

Not real helpful other than confirming what was obvious, Cosign is 
killing the app pool so the server is dead until the module is removed.

I noted some things changed in the instructions, so I then added the x86 
.dll to SysWOW64\inetsrv, uinstalled the module, and reinstalled with 
appcmd install module /name:"Cosign" /image:"CosignModule.dll"

Unfortunately this made no change, the app pool still dies as soon as a 
page request is made over http.  Is it really supposed to be the case 
the x64 module goes in the 32bit directory and vice versa?
Why is the module causing the app pool to crash out before it's even 
active in a configuration?

Thanks!
Yadin
