The error you see in the event viewer tells that something is crashing the application pool when you start your CMS website. One possible explanation of this could be that account under which your app pool identity runs has an expired password (see this answer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10484155/windows-process-activation-service-was-encountered-a-failure-when-it-started-a).

If this is not the problem, see if you find any other useful logs (errors or warnings) in your event log

  • it was my first thought when i got this error. I changed the password and also try with other user, but no luck to resolve this. Actually, whenever i start the application pool it starts successfully, but whenever i browse the site it stop the application pool, I have checked all the other setting like, 32 bit, rapid protection etc... but still its not working.

  • ok, then do you see any other log warnings or errors in your windows event viewer? Is this a fresh installation of tridion, or did it run successfully before? Commented Nov 21, 2014 at 8:46
