ASP.NET Core 2, IIS AppPool crashes and stops - asp.net

Question

I've just updated a web app to ASP.NET Core 2.0 running on IIS 7.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2. Since upgrading the app randomly crashes and leaves it with a 503 Service Unavailable response. It can run for several hours before crashing.
Before crashing I get a couple of warnings in event viewer and then a error.
Example of warning:
A process serving application pool '<My app pool>' terminated unexpectedly. The process id was '14896'. The process exit code was '0x0'.
Another example of warning:
A process serving application pool '<My app pool>' suffered a fatal communication error with the Windows Process Activation Service. The process id was '18252'. The data field contains the error number.
Example of error:
Application pool '<My app pool>' is being automatically disabled due to a series of failures in the process(es) serving that application pool.
I guess the crash/error comes from rapid failure feature in IIS, but I can't pinpoint the cause of the original warnings.
I have a few runtime errors like the ones below too, but I'm sure how related they are:
{
"#t": "2017-11-20T15:24:24.3190000Z",
"#m": "Request timed out.",

}
Event viewer also reports errors like these for the app pool in question:
An unhandled win32 exception occurred in w3wp.exe [18244]. Just-In-Time debugging this exception failed with the following error: Debugger could not be started because no user is logged on.
Check the documentation index for 'Just-in-time debugging, errors' for more information.
And...
Faulting application name: w3wp.exe, version: 7.5.7601.17514, time stamp: 0x4ce7afa2
Faulting module name: aspnetcore.dll, version: 7.1.1982.0, time stamp: 0x594ab904

Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\aspnetcore.dll

I could really use some help trying to find the source of these crashes.

Answer 1

Microsoft has updated the IIS module for ASP.NET Core now and that solves the problem.
