I have IIS 7.5 on my computer. I want to deploy signalr web app, but it does not work with IIS 7.5 (after several hours of trying all the work arounds suggested on SO or MS KB). Some one suggested to try IIS 8 express. Can I have both installed on my computer?

According to this announcement ASP.NET 5 discontinued helios support and embraced new hosting model that involves using HttpPlatformHandler to spawn dnx instances.
Until now it was definitely possible to run ASP.NET applications on IIS 7.5 and as far as I understand HttpPlatformHandler is for IIS 8 and 8.5. Does this mean that there will be no supported scenario for hosting ASP.NET 5 in IIS < 8 (eg. 7.5)? Are there any other alternative to HttpPlatformHandler?
As mentioned by Damian Edwards both in this GitHub thread and the Community Standup of October 6h, HttpPlatformHandler will be available for IIS 7.5 in the future.
Windows 7 has IIS 7.5, not IIS 7. We require IIS 7.5 as a minimum and the HttpPlatformHandler is being updated to support running on IIS 7.5
I am struggling to deploy a web app to iis 8 express. I have no problem deploying it to the regular IIS 7.5. IIS 8 express does not have any GUI so I cannot go into it, create a virtual directory, point to the physical folder where the web app files are. I have been looking up on internet with zero results. Any good examples out there?
Have you tried IIS Express GUI?
Trying to move an EPI5 site from a server with IIS6 to a server with IIS7.5.
Having problems because of the configuration being set up for IIS6. Ive tried to follow instructions
http://world.episerver.com/en/Documentation/Items/Tech-Notes/EPiServer-CMS-5/EPiServer-CMS-5-R2-SP1/Changes-Between-IIS6-and-IIS7/#Changes in web.config
Does anyone have experience of following this guide or reconfiguring from IIS6 to IIS7.x?
What I've done in this situation (numerous times) is install a fresh (blank/demo) EPiServer 5 site on a server with IIS 7 and use those config files as a template when moving the real site from IIS 6 to IIS 7.
EPiServer 4 on Windows 2008 with IIS7 is not officially supported. You can get it to work though - one key is to run the application pool in Classic mode.
EDIT: You also need to turn on the pool's "32-bit" setting.
We've got SignalR running on a Silverlight 5 client.
It is working on our local machines under both cassini and IIS Express, but it isn't when we deploy the app to our dev server, which runs Windows 2008 Server and IIS 7.0
We don't see any errors on the logs, just the notifications not coming through to the client.
Any ideas? We have rerun the aspnet_regiis tool and also added thr web.config settings recommended in another posts with no success.
Thanks.
While developing an ASP.NET application I tried to install IIS Express 7.5 onto Windows XP. I downloaded the installer and ran it - IIS installed okay (I see it in Add/Remove Programs list), but I didn't find anything for controlling it (like the IIS console).
My colleague told me I should use IIS Manager for IIS 6, I installed it, but it only allows me to control IIS 5 that was installed on XP from the very beginning. I tried to install IIS Manager for IIS 7 but when I ask it to connect to localhost it shown an error message saying it can't find Microsoft.Web.Administration assembly which AFAIK is only available on Vista and later versions.
How exactly do I install IIS Express 7.5 and some administration console to control it onto Windows XP?
Currently there is no UI for IIS Express. You can install WebMatrix from following link which provides some basic IIS Express mangement functionality.
http://www.microsoft.com/web/
OR
You can also use IIS Express from command line. Below link provides info about how to start use IIS Express from command line.
http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/870/running-iis-express-from-the-command-line/
IIS 7.5 Express can be controlled via integration with VS2010 SP1, WebMatrix and the command line.
From the IIS 7.5 readme
You will most likely need an
Integrated Development Environment to
build web applications over IIS 7.5
Express. Microsoft WebMatrix provides
a simple and integrated user
experience for building both ASP.NET
and PHP websites using IIS 7.5
Express. You can use IIS 7.5 Express
with Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Beta to
build and test web applications
instead of the built-in ASP.NET
Development Web Server (also known as
Cassini). It is also possible to run
IIS 7.5 Express using the command
line.
