Symptoms
Consider the following scenario:
-
You create a new Host Initiated Processing (HIP) service.
-
The service uses an HTTP endpoint.
-
You set a website as the local computer endpoint.
-
The website address resembles the following:
http://contoso.com
-
You start the new HIP service.
In this scenario, the new HIP service seems to start. But the CPU spikes to 100 percent. You can verify this in Task Manager for this particular process.
Cause
The Http Listener fails if hipservice.exe.config contains something other than localhost (or, for example, contoso.com) for the website entry.
Resolution
The fix for this problem is included in cumulative update package 3 for Host Integration Server 2013. For more information about how to get the cumulative update package, see Cumulative update package 3 for Host Integration Server 2013.
