Sorry guys, Microsoft don't provide much in the line of documentation for installing front page server extensions.
How is it done?
You need to go to Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel and click the
button for Add/Remove Windows Components. Within that area, drill down to:
Application Server > Details > Internet Information Services > Details and
check FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions.
You may need your Windows Server CD at this point.
please note that if you have x64 R2 version of windows server 2003 SP2
you need to download it separately.

Hey I just wrote a Hello World code for ASP. But it is not compiling using IIS . When I try to access it using localhost/path_to_folder/xyz.asp
It shows the entire code as it is ..
Can anyone tell me whats the problem?)
Do this Step by Step:
Go to control panel
Windows features on/off
Tick this features:
3.a) Internet Information Service>Web management tools>IIS6 Management Compatibility
3.b) Internet Information Service>Web management tools>IIS Management Console
3.c) Internet Information Service>Worldwide web services>Application dev. features>ASP
3.d) Internet Information Service>Worldwide web services>Application dev. features>ISAPI Extentions
These settings are necessary. If still doesnt work, Let me know for further settings.
Classic ASP support isn't installed by default on recent versions of IIS so you'll need to install it via the "Turn Windows features on and off" Control Panel, or with the Web Platform Installer.
Are you accessing via the web server built into Visual Studio? If so, it won't work. That server doesn't support .asp, only .as?x files.
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 am trying to create a Local IIS Website using ASP.NET.
When I click on New -----> Website and select the type as HTTP and from the dialog box if I select the option as LOCAL IIS WEBSITE I am getting a message as "IIS not installed on this computer"
When I checked in the Control Panel---->Add or remove programs ---->Add or remove windows components. The Option Internet Information Service is already checked marked.
But when I click on the Control Panel ---> Administrative Tools, I dont find the option as Internet Information Service.
I also have the root directory as C:\Inetpub\WWWRoot.
And when I give the following command in the VS command Prompt
aspnet_regiis.exe -i
It is giving the message as finished installing ASP.NET
Can any one help me in identifying whether IIS is installed in my system or not?
Please help me out!
go to Start->Run type inetmgr and press OK. If you get an IIS configuration screen. It is installed, otherwise it isn't.
You can also check ControlPanel->Add Remove Programs, Click Add Remove Windows Components and look for IIS in the list of installed components.
EDIT
To Reinstall IIS.
Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs -> Click Add Remove Windows Components
Uncheck IIS box
Click next and follow prompts to UnInstall IIS.
Insert your windows disc into the appropriate drive.
Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs -> Click Add Remove Windows Components
Check IIS box
Click next and follow prompts to Install IIS.
For Windows 7:
Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features On or Off > to turn on IIS click on Check box.
Check
Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Services --> IIS Admin
For reinstalling
How to remove and reinstall IIS 5.0, 5.1 and 6.0
In the menu, go to RUN > services.msc and hit enter to get the services window and check for the IIS ADMIN service. If it is not present, then reinstall IIS using your windows CD.
The quickest way to check is just to write "inetmgr" at run (By pressing Win + R) as a command, if a manager window is appeared then it's installed otherwise it isn't.
A lot of answers here describe how to manually check if IIS is installed.
One (of many) programmatic ways is to check if the file
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\w3wp.exe
exists, and maybe has a certain minimum version (such as 10.0.0.0 for IIS version 10).
IIS can be installed programmatically using DISM. You can also use DISM to check if IIS is installed, which may be "more correct", but is also more difficult to do than just checking for a file.
WARNING: If possible, do not hard-code the path C:\Windows\System32, especially not within a 32-bit process or installer, as it can be virtualized and mapped to C:\Windows\SysWOW64, which is NOT where IIS is installed (assuming a 64-bit OS). Depending on where you are implementing your check (installer prerequisites, PowerShell, native code, etc.), there are different ways to explicitly access the 64-bit/native system folder.
Background: w3wp.exe is the worker process image of IIS, so if IIS is installed with minimal features, then this file can be expected to exist.
As for version numbers, you can expect the following minimum versions of IIS to be installed in (source):
IIS 10 (>= 10.0.0.0) in Windows Server 2016 or higher and Windows 10 or higher
IIS 8.5 (>= 8.5.0.0) in Windows Server 2012 R2 or higher and Windows 8.1 or higher
http://localhost:80 (specify port configured)
OR
http://localhost (default port)
type above line in your browser you realize IIS installed or not
I simple gave below in all my browsers. I got image IIS7
http://localhost/
Refer this a step by step approach:

For many users you have to enable the windows feature on then check IIS and then go with RUN followed by searching for inetmgr.
I needed to do this on a server over the CLI, and was able to do so in using powershell wit the following command:
Get-ItemProperty -Path registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\InetStp\ | Select-Object
My friend accidentally bought a laptop with Windows Vista Home Basic Edition. He figured out how to install IIS on it, but it doesn't seem to have either the management console or the admin tools. Is there any way for him to configure a site or import an IIS 6 config file?
EDIT: "Windows Vista Home Edition" --> "Windows Vista Home Basic Edition".
Not entirely certain here, but start the IIS console on another machine and tell it to connect to the laptop? The normal management console snap-ins all support remote operation.
Yu need to go back into Windows Component Setup and choose to install the Managemnet console(s).
Control Panel>Programs->Turn Windows Feature on and off.
You will see Internet Information Services in there, go under there and you will find the management console(s).
And yes, they are available to be installed on Vista Home. Once installed you can setup by opening Control Panel->Adminstrative Tools and you will see the IIS manager in there.
Per Microsoft Technet, IIS Management Console is unavailable on Windows Vista Home Basic and Starter Editions though it is available on Home Premium and above. And I can confirm it doesn't appear in the list of options when I install IIS.
Okay, not being on Vista I don't know for sure, but on XP the application which controls IIS is %SystemRoot%\system32\inetsrv\iis.msc. Perhaps hunting around for iis.msc would be a first step.
You should be able to do an upgrade to home premium. I'm pretty sure it's available at quite a low cost. My Home Basic laptop came with a CD that had all the necessary stuff for upgrading to a different version of Windows (I upgraded to Linux). If you really want IIS to do development work, you should really upgrade. Or if you just want .Net, you can install VS.Net Express and use the development server.
