IIs 7 Management Service - iis

I have a site in my office and i want to administrate remotely from home.
Searching on internet said that i have to enable something in MANAGMENT SERVICE.
In my IIS dont exist MANAGEMENT SERVICE
How can install it.

After few hours of research for the same problem I can tell you that the specified feature is not available in the "client" editions of Windows (i.e. Windows 7).

Cannot access IIS manager on my server 2019 through windows 10

I created a VM server 2019 and I don't want my employees to have remote access to the server. But I want them to be able to access the IIS on the server through a windows 10 machine. I went to the IIS manager in the server and added the users to the IIS manager permission through active directory. On my windows 10, I went to control panel-Programs-Turn Windows Feature on or off and enabled the IIS. So what's happening is that they can find the IIS Manager app under the start menu on windows 10, but when they try to open it there's a pop-up asking if want to allow changes to the device, then it asks for their passwords. And after they enter the password a new pop-up comes up saying I need to be an Administrator to use IIS manager. They are not admin to windows 10 and I don't want for them to be admin. Any idea how I can fix this?
Remote administration 1.2 no longer available for download.
Make sure the WinRM IIS Extension is checked and installed on Win Server 2019 (Under "Feature" selection. (Add Roles and Features Wizard)
This is the missing piece that took me an hour to figure out in the latest version.
It sounds like you need to delegate IIS administration to non-admin user.
Then you need to install IIS manager for remote administration 1.2 as lex said. Once you install it, IIS will no longer as for administrator prevelige.
The next you need to do is install IIS management and create IIS manager user. Then you could add your win10's IP to management service IP restirction, so only your win 10 have permission to connect the server.
PS:Please remember to allow 8172 in windows firewall.

Unable to connect to a cloud service after publishing via visual studio

I am trying to run this sample: The documentation states that I need to publish the solution. This works and visual studio reports success. However, the cloud service site URL is unreachable. I don't know if this is because the application doesn't work or the machine is unreachable due to some security configuration. RDP to cloud service also fails. How do I figure out the security configuration associated with this cloud service?
Apparently this is a Windows 7 issue. RDP from a windows 10 machine works. Windows 7 EOL is still at least a year away though.

Web Deploy from Visual Studio 2012 to a remote IIS 8 server

I have a remote Windows 2012 server running IIS 8 from which I am hosting a web application. My local development box is running Visual Studio 2012. Currently I am publishing my app as a web deployment package (.zip), RDP'ing to the production server, copy + pasting to a folder and deploying the application from within IIS. My question is, what changes do I need to make to deploy directly to IIS from Visual Studio 2012 using the web deploy option?
I have tried to follow this guide but it refers to a service URL which I must obtain from my hosting company. I don't have a hosting company, my server is co-located.
I am presented with the following options:
Is the username and password the one I use for the RDP account? I already have Web Deploy 3.0 installed on IIS do I need to enable further settings?
OK I found the solution but it took me a whole day to get it working! Basically the steps are as follows. This is very sketchy but see the detailed guides below which helped me.
Enable the IIS Web Management role feature.
Install Web Deploy 3.0 (or higher). Make sure to customise the install to include the handlers (See notes below). If you're not presented with this option go to add/remove programs, find webdeploy, right click and select "change" option.
In IIS click on the server node and find the "Management Service" icon. Enable remote access and configure a dedicated IIS User for remote deployment (These will be the credentials that will go in the user name and password boxes).
At the site level in IIS assign this user to manage the website.
Make sure port 8172 is open on the web server (you can check this port here).
Try reconnecting from Visual Studio. There was some trial and error here for me but the error messages do link to a MS guide for decoding :)
Even after connecting successfully I had to wrangle with permissions, so my IIS user had sufficient privileges to create the app pool, directories and general file management jobs.
The following links really helped!
Configuring the handler on the web server:
http://www.iis.net/learn/publish/using-web-deploy/configure-the-web-deployment-handler
Connecting via Visual Studio:

NOTES:
To ensure the handler is running, login into your IIS server and point your browser to the following URL.
https://<servername>:8172/MsDeploy.axd
F12 to open up the dev tools to see the HTTP response. Also MsDeploy also creates IIS logs in inetpub/logs which should give you some clue if you're having connectivity problems.
I had the same problem and this post was very useful to help me solve the issue. I had anyhow serious troubles while trying to install Web Deploy on my Windows Server 2012. The installation of Web Deploy 3.0 was giving me several errors and it couldn't be completed.
I tried to solve the problem installing "Microsoft Web Platform Installer 5.0" from http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx but it didn't solve it.
I thought it was due to Firewall Settings, Authorizations issues, Users without permissions or something like that. Finally I found out it wasn't due to any of the mentioned reasons.
I found the most simple solution and I hope it will help other users too: it was enough to download Web Deploy 3.5 installation directly from Microsoft Website:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39277
This may sound banal but it solved it. I was able to install "Web Management Service" but not the second needed IIS service "Web Deployment Agent Service".

What is the exact difference between Windows Azure and Windows IIS?

I have finished developing a webapplication on Visual Studio 2012 along with Microsoft SQL 2008. I'm trying to make it a "live" webapp which can be accessed through the phone rather than a localhost.
I researched and found 2 solutions which are
IIS
Azure
I have been looking all over the net for various clear explaination of the main difference between IIS and Azure. From my understanding, IIS is a web server application that comes with Windows Server and is used to serve up web sites while Azure is a Windows hosting solution that utilizes IIS. In that case why do people still uses IIS while Azure provide both a cloud platform and IIS?
Which is also better to host any typical web-application that used to run on the localhost?
I can't seems to find any thread in SO or ASP.Net forum which can clearly explain the main difference between the two along with the advantage and disadvantage.
Here are some of the link1, link2 i have found that provide brief information about the two.
What you are looking for is actually a place to run your web application, Teo.
As you've found, you can do that in IIS if you have a server that is connected to the Internet. A way to get such a server is to either got to a hosting company or just use the Windows Azure cloud as you've found as well.
One of the simplest ways for you to do this right now and for free is to sign up for a Windows Azure trial account. As part of that account you get a basic, shared Windows Azure Website for free.
Here are the links you need:
(1) http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/net/tutorials/get-started/
(2) http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/pricing/free-trial/
I would strongly recommend that you go through the entire tutorial (1) step-by-step before trying to do this with your own application. Before you start, sign up for a trial account (2). You will not be charged in the first month and you will not be charged if you stick with the free website.
Enjoy.
Comparing IIS to Azure is irrelevant. Those are two different concepts, which are vaguely related to each other. You lack some very basic understanding of what each one means, and I recommend you to go and read about each them from scratch.
IIS is indeed a web server application. That means, for example, that it can rout HTTP request and responds to and from the web site application that you have created.
To keep it simple, let's say that IIS can run on any Windows machine, which makes the machine a Web Server.
If you want to have your web site up and running, you need either have your own machine that acts as a web server, or either upload your web site application to some other machine.
Azure is a group of cloud services. One of the services is a Web Site Host, that allows you to use cloud computers to run the IIS that hosts your web site.
As part of the service, Azure will take care of installing and using the IIS server for you.
Bottom line, if you are going the Windows path, you will probably end up using Both Azure and IIS (unless you will want to self host your web site...)

Best options to host my asmx web service on machine not having IIS

We have a requirement where we need to have some web services running on a server machine but it does not have IIS available. I came across this article on running asmx without IIS and many other sites/blogs have mentioned this article as well.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163879.aspx
Could somebody offer alternatives to above to run asmx web services without IIS installed?
Other option i could find was Cassini - http://ultidev.com/products/cassini/
Windows Azure! That is precisely what it was designed for... it’s cheap and reliable!
