I have windows 7 64 bit ultimate OS. I need to install IIS on my laptop. From turn on/off windows features I enabled IIS by checking the checkbox in front of IIS management console. But it was not successful and then I re-enabled it by checking all the checkboxes under the web management tool. This time it was success and if I type inetmgr now I can find the window.
But the problem is when I type localhost on my browser address bar page does not come(404 page not found.)
Can you please help me to solve this issue?
I solved the issue. The problem was default web site not running because of port 80 uses by another application. Then I changed the port and re start the web site. Now it is working fine. :)
Close all applications like Skype, DropBox, GoogleDisk, TeamViewer etc.
Type iisreset in Windows Console and press Enter
Start again all applications like Skype, DropBox, GoogleDisk, TeamViewer etc.
Whis way always working for me!
In My System the Problem was not with port. When i installed Apache some iis service has got uninstalled. SO I removed IIS from the features and Add Again, then it works fine.

I'm a newbie here and have found some of the material really useful. However, I can't seem to resolve this issue: I'm running Windows 7 Professional and don't have an inetmgr.exe file in C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv. I have a number of iis... files but no inetmgr.exe file.
The bigger picture is that I'm trying to get Apache and PHP working on my laptop and am going round in circles trying to get Localhost to work. I keep getting "Webpage cannot be found" and searching the net has led me to believe the inetmgr.exe file might be key to resolving the problem. That and port 80 might be involved somewhere....
In case you haven't already picked this detail up, I am way, way, way out of my comfort zone with this but I really need to get this working for a course I'm taking.
Thank in advance for any light you may be able to shed.
Install IIS:
Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows Features on or off -> Check "Internet Information Services". Select next and follow prompts to Install IIS.
For more info, see this Q&A to check for and install IIS, Check whether IIS is installed or not?
Since this question is the first Google search result for inetmgr not found, and since it can be quite puzzling to not be able to find inetmgr even if the web service seems to be working correctly, I thought I'd annotate it with the most obvious answer for those who actually need the IIS Manager: you have to install the Manager separately from WWW service (it is a separate option to installing IIS WWW service itself).
[Windows 8.x]
First, type IIS in the Start page: if you see Internet Information
(IIS) Manager, you are good to go. If not...
Go to Control Panel, "Programs and Features", then click "Turn
Windows features on or off" in the left pane.
In the "Windows Features" dialog that pops up, make sure that under
"Internet Information Services" you have "Web Management Features"
checked in addition to "World Wide Web Services". (Technically, you
just need "IIS Management Console" under "Web Management Features"
to be checked).
Don't forget to click OK in the "Windows Features" dialog. :-)
Now go to Step #1 and you should see Internet Information (IIS)
Manager as an available icon.
Inetmgr.exe is the executable for IIS. If you are trying to just have Apache and PHP work, you can use WAMP server - this will give you everything you need to start developing with PHP. The site is: http://www.wampserver.com/en/
IIS is a web server and Apache is a webserver too. If you want to use Apache, you donèt need to have IIS installed.
You need to install iis first.

In windows server 2008 R2 I found IIS Server under Roles, not features
I am trying to learn ColdFusion and have installed the developer edition (CF10) on my Win7 computer and this brings up the localhost administrator page correctly but I have a test helloworld.cfm file in inetpub/wwwroot and when I try & access this with localhost/helloworld.cfm windows opens a dialogue box saying what program should open this .cfm file?
(in IIS Mime type there is none for .cfm & when I tried to add one it didn't work...).
Several posts on the internet say ensure IIS has CGI enabled and ISAPI Extensions
IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility which I have.
I'm not sure what is wrong here-can anyone advise me clearly & simply if I can view and use .cfm in IIS & how?
We know IIS is the problem because your administrator works, so CF is running correctly.
What I do is the following
create a site in IIS, just basic. no setting changes
install coldfusion 10
During install coldfusion will ask me if it has to configure all current IIS sites
if you let it do that, it should all work like a charm.
Did you do it like this?
I would uninstall and re-install as something must have gone wrong connecting IIS to COldFusion
CF10 does not require the IIS 6 compatibility. If you don't need that for any other web technology connections, then remove that. You do need CGI, .Net Extensibility, ASP.NET, ISAPI Extensions and ISAPI Filters. I believe the connector configurator for ColdFusion especially uses the .Net Extensibilty to "wire things up".
I need to do some work on an old ASP Classic site, so I’m trying to host it on my IIS, but when I try load a page I get:
An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator.
If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error.
When I follow the link, it takes me to a Microsoft site and talks about running ASP Classic on IIS 7, but none of the pages help and nothing I found on Google will get it to work. I have all the elements under turn Windows features on and off - IIS - WWW services - app dev features.
This was bugging me earlier today and it turned out I had an error in my script.
This assumes you have installed the ASP/ISAPI extensions via the Control Panel's "Add/Remove Windows Features."
By default, errors will not be sent to the browser. To enable sending errors to the browser, go to the site in your IIS manager. Double click the ASP icon and expand "Debugging Properties." Set "Send Errors to Browser" to True.
I had this same problem and it turns out you need to set application pool to classic .net for it to work.
Hi I want to acces, open "inetmgr.exe" on my Windows 7 machine. But none of the searches are working. ( Start Menu --> Search Program and Files NOR Search in My Computer).
I somehow want to access inetmgr.exe of IIS(InternetInformation Services).
So can anyone kindly let me know the
default location of inetmgr.exe or any
DOS command to access it. I even
tried typing "inetmgr.exe" in command
prompt. But not working. So PLz
somehow I need to access inetmgr.exe.
Thanks in advance.
It should be available in following location:
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\InetMgr.exe
But when you goto start menu and type inetmgr.exe it should be visible in the list. If not then something wrong with your installation or that file has been deleted.
At first check IIS is installed or not.
For XP
Open Control Panel
Add-Remove Windows Components.
For Windows 7 / Windows Server 2012
Open Control Panel
Programs and Features
Turn Windows features on or off.
I had the same issue. Go into Control Panel -> Programs-> Turn Windows features on or off.
Click on features for Internet Information Services. Specifically, Web Management Tools and Wold Wide Web Services.
For Web Management Tools
->IIS 6 Management Compatibility
->IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility. (or any other features you think you may need)
I had the same problem on Windows Server 2016 with it not wanting to search. IIS Manager (with our normal websites) was showing in the Start menu but IIS 6 Manager was not (where the SMTP Virtual Server settings are located).
Luckily you can launch it from within Server Manager:
Yes, I installed IIS and still couldn't find InetMgr.exe until I went back to
Turn Windows features on or off
and then checked
Internet Information Services
Web Management Tools
IIS Management Console
I had a base Windows XP with IIS hosting some websites and it has been working for years, yesturday I upgraded to SP2 (which includes the security suit) because I needed .NET 3.5 and since then no one can access the web pages anymore.
When I connect to the macine locally and try to access the webpage it prompted me for a username / password - when I entered it I was able to access the page locally.
However, remotely I always get "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"...
Anyone know what I need to do so that we can access the pages again?
Thanks,
You need to open port 80 on the firewall. Alternatively, if you box is behind a hardware firewall, just turn off the windows firewall.
add an exception to the windows firewall settings for that IIS Application (port number if other)
