Keep getting this error when our MSM module loader service crashes? We loaded the hotfix supplied with the windows updates and no improvement.

Any ideas as to why?

tldr:

I have faced the same error. It was due to a client repeatedly calling a WCF service, where a method called itself recursively, thus throwing StackOverflowException.

Long answer:

This was happening in a WCF application using .Net 4.5. All our services (.svcs), started failing one by one, until the whole application pool started to give error HTTP 503. The app pool was dead.

Digging through the application logs, then EventViewer logs, we found the same message as the OP.

For a while we kept restarting the app pool, but it would only crash again after some time.

The app pool suddenly stabilized itself at 2pm, and we have some system operation that run noon to 2pm... We figured it must have something to do with that. We were able to found it was due to a merge error where a Method keeping calling itself recursively, the method had no parameters or return type. Probably it threw so StackOverflowExceptions causing the application pool to crash.
