SharePoint 2013 webapplication creation erorr: page cannot be displayed dialog box

Sometime, while trying to create webapplication in SP2013, you will see "Page cannot be displayed" dialog box error. To resolve this follow the below steps,  Inetmgr - Application Pools - Select CA app pool - Advanced settings - Process Model - Increase the Shutdown time limit to 200. Default is 90. Issue happens because during webapplication creation process, IIS shutdown in 90 seconds. Sometimes when new webapplication is created, this time is not enough and IIS shutsdown and you see the "Page cannot be displayed" error

SharePoint 2010 to 2016 Migration - Feature reference missing issue

I was in a situation to migrate SP2010 site to SP2016 manually without any tool. I have followed the typical steps of,  - Create webapplication in SP2013 - Delete default DB and test the webapplication with the DB - Now you will get reference errors and missing features error  - But if you try to delete them, you cannot. - SO GO AHEAD AND MOUNT THE DATABASE AND NOW YOU CAN DELETE THE MISSING REFERENCES Have learnt this later. Initially spent some time to delete the missing feature before mounting the db. Repeat the same step from SP2013 to SP2016.
