I setup applicationinitialization for our web app by following up https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/get-started/whats-new-in-iis-8/iis-80-application-initialization

the below is my changes in web.config

<applicationInitialization   doAppInitAfterRestart="true"   skipManagedModules="true"   remapManagedRequestsTo="init.html">
  <add initializationPage="/warmup/init" hostName="phoenix"/>
</applicationInitialization>

It's working find on my local (win10) and 2 other environment for dev and staging (both win2012) but not working on QA environment (win2012).

on QA environment I see init.html on screen when app poll recycles, but initializationPage is not called at all.

startMode of app poll is AlwayRunning

Preload Enabled is true on webapp,

Idle Time-out is 0 on app pool

Regular Time Interval (minutes) is 0 on app pool

I checked windows event logs no related logs are there.

Any other settings to check?

Do you have the Application Initialization feature installed? The options apparently exist even if the feature is not installed on the Windows system. I was having the same issue and had to go to Windows Features and select "Application Initialization" from the IIS feature options to get it working.
