Anyone successfully running AppFabric Caching?

Question

I'm running into a problem immediately after doing Start-CacheCluster, my cache service has already stopped. My application log shows the following pairs of errors:

ERROR1:

Application: DistributedCacheService.exe Framework Version: v4.0.30319 Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception. Exception Info: Microsoft.Fabric.Common.ReleaseAssertException Stack: at Microsoft.Fabric.Common.IOCompletionPortWorkQueue.Invoke(System.Threading.WaitCallback, System.Object) at Microsoft.Fabric.Common.IOCompletionPortWorkQueue.WorkerThreadStart() at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(System.Threading.ExecutionContext, System.Threading.ContextCallback, System.Object, Boolean) at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(System.Threading.ExecutionContext, System.Threading.ContextCallback, System.Object) at System.Threading.ThreadHelper.ThreadStart()

ERROR2:

Faulting application name: DistributedCacheService.exe, version: 1.0.2912.0, time stamp: 0x4bea6d7b Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x4a5bdfe0 Exception code: 0xe0434352 Fault offset: 0x000000000000aa7d Faulting process id: 0x2aa4 Faulting application start time: 0x01cb0808ce054c15 Faulting application path: C:\Windows\System32\AppFabric\DistributedCacheService.exe Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\KERNELBASE.dll Report Id: 13c5102f-73fc-11df-90f5-463500000031

I'm using the RTM and I think everything is configured correctly. I'm on Windows 7 64bit and there is another Windows Server 2008 32bit machine in the cluster. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Not sure what happened, but after a stop and restart of the cluster everything is working again and I don't get errors anymore.

Answer 2

If you come across this error and what he did does not fix it, it is likely that there is a permissions problem.

This error also occurs using SharePoint 2013 - take a look at this post to correct:

Answer 3

In my case the reason of the crash was in the bug "Microsoft AppFabric 1.1 for Windows Server crashes when an anonymous client tries to access it.". So I've just installed Cumulative update package 2 for Microsoft AppFabric 1.1 and it stopped crashing. BTW, there can be more info on the crash in special branch in Event Viewer: Applications And Services Log -> Microsoft-Windows-Application Server-System Services
