Whilst moving a site over from one server to another, I ran into slight issues isn’t too hectic to sort out.
The source server where the site was hosted was not a SharePoint Server, rather just a basic server to host some websites, plain and simple.
The destination server was however a SharePoint server. The website being hosted needed its AppPool to be run in 32-bit mode, but when hosting 32-bit websites on a SharePoint server it gives the error in the event viewer:
“The Module DLL ‘C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\isapi\spnativerequestmodule.dll’ could not be loaded due to a configuration problem. The current configuration only supports loading images built for a x86 processor architecture. The data field contains the error number. To learn more about this issue, including how to troubleshooting this kind of processor architecture mismatch error, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=29349.”
With this error, your web application’s AppPool will stop by itself once you browse to your application.
To fix this you can run the following command that allows 32-bit applications to run by redirecting the spnativerequestmodule.dll to run only when 64-but application need it.
You can run the code in an elevated Command Prompt session:
<pre id="pre485695" class="prettyprint notranslate"><span class="code-string">"</span><span class="code-string">%systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\AppCmd.exe"</span> set config -section:system.webServer/globalModules /<span class="code-keyword">[</span><span class="code-keyword">name='SPNativeRequestModule']</span>.preCondition:integratedMode,bitness64</pre>
