version of windows server/IIS supporting classic ASP 2.0 - iis

What is the highest version of Windows Server & IIS that supports classic ASP 2.0?

since IIS 5 that is supported, but not installed by default in later versions.
Open Roles and Features on Windows Server and select ASP as well.

Windows server 2008 and IIS 7.5 support classic ASP.
This link covers the subject of getting classic ASP running on IIS 7.5 fairly comprehensively:

What will be the minimum iis version required to run asp.net 5 applications?

I'm considering using ASP.Net 5 for a new project, but I need to know what the minimum IIS version will be to host and run this application.
According to ASP.Net 5 Home on Github you need at least Windows 7 or Server 2008 R2 and .NET 4.5.1 for hosting in IIS.
Windows 7 and Server 2008 comes with IIS 7.5.
Also, refer to .NET Framework System Requirements

Downgrading IIS version on windows server 2008

Does anyone have an idea if it is possible to downgrade IIS version 7 to lower version of IIS on windows server 2008?
I have an ASP program on win 2000 server and I am planning to migrate this program on new setup on better hardware and software but I am getting HTTP 500 which in detail error logs I see complain of classic asp and IIS 7. In my case obviously the the ASP used (by another programmer) is and old classic ASP platform and now with this conflict I cannot get my web sever operating properly.
Any help/idea would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Alan

Updating IIS 5.0 to IIS 6.0

I want to update the IIS server from 5.0 to 6.0 or higher.
The condition is that I cant upgrade the server. My machine is Windows XP SP3
Is there any way I can only update the IIS.
You can install IIS Express 7.5 on Windows XP. Note that the Express version is a lightweight (yet fully featured) version of IIS meant for development purposes, not production hosting. You shouldn't use Windows XP as a production server anyway.
You can run it on XP Pro 32bit
Check the link here - http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/868/iis-express-overview/
I have installed IIS 6.0 Manager for my Windows XP SP3 32-bit from this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=15662
In Control Panel->Administration Tool (I guess its name translated from italian :) now I have two items:
Internet Information Services - the 5.1 version bundled with the OS
Internet Information Services (IIS6) Manager - the installed version from the link above

What IIS version does Windows Server 2008 Web Edition come with

Also, if an application works on IIS 7, would it be cool on the new version (if there is any)?
Err...even Microsoft's marketing material(dead link) is confusing! (says both IIS 7.0 and 7.5). However, I believe that Windows Server 2008 Web comes with IIS 7.0 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Web comes with IIS 7.5 FYI.
And yes, if you have an app working on IIS 7, it will work fine on IIS 7.5.
Edit: Appears Microsoft has update their site since this was posted, leaving link up for anyone looking for information on Server and Server R2.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/product-information.aspx
IIS version 7.5.
My guess is if Microsoft doesn't suck, an app working in 7.0 should be fine on a newer subversion, there should be no core changes. Then again, it is Microsoft, so I can't say that for certain.

Need help configuring IIS with ASP.NET in Vista Home Basic

I have checked the following during turning on Windows features:
IIS,IIS Compatibility and under WWW I have checked .NET extensibility.I do not see an ASP.NET option to check.Will these be enough to have IIS running or am I missing something.
I do not see the IIS page when I type localhost in my browser.Please help.
Your version of Vista does not support ASP on IIS. You'll have to either install asp or upgrade your version of Vista to:
Windows Vista Home Premium Edition
Windows Vista Professional Edition
Windows Vista Ultimate Edition
If you're trying to set up a web server you can take a look at Microsoft's Dreamspark site.
If you're a student and have the capability of proving it you can download a copy of Windows 2003 Server and use it for educational purposes.
