WSUS Crashing - IIS Reset fixes for a few minutes.
Hi
I have recently installed and started running WSUS on Windows Server Std 2012 R2.
I have got all the computers on our network connecting to it.
It keep crashing and giving the following error information:
The WSUS administration console was unable to connect to the WSUS Server via the remote API.
Verify that the Update Services service, IIS and SQL are running on the server. If the problem persists, try restarting IIS, SQL, and the Update Services Service.
System.Net.WebException -- The request failed with HTTP status 503: Service Unavailable.

Might need to try these steps
Follow these steps to resolve this issue:
1.Open IIS Manager on the WSUS server.
2.Browse to the website being used by WSUS. Depending on the WSUS configuration, this will typically be either the Default Web Site or a site named WSUS Administration.
3.Double-click ISAPI Filters.
4.Right-click the entry that corresponds to ASP.Net v4.0 (the specific version number may vary) and select Edit.
5.In the executable path, replace the name of the Framework folder with Framework64 and click OK. Do not change anything else in the file path.
6.Restart the website, then verify that the WSUS Administration console is able to connect to the WSUS server.
