There are more and more sites coming online that allow you to ask questions. So which site(s) do you use? Traditional These sites are more of the old way of finding out answers, you don’t really interact, just find your answer on the existing documentation Read More......( read more ) Read More...
For those of you that remember that far back, I released a sample that also filled a need for Windows Vista. Since the original version of Windows Vista did not ship with a user interface for managing logging, and we needed samples of how to build UI modules available to the public, I released the Logging UI module. For some time, I've been hosting that downloadable release on my private web site ( tobint.com ). As I plan to make some major changes to my personal site over the next few months, I wanted to make sure the release was still reliably available. That said, I've now added the source code to CodePlex . You may find the project at http://www.codeplex.com/iis70loggingui . I have worked with our source asset management team and made this available under the <a href="http://www.codeplex.com/iis70loggingui/license">MS-PL</a>. I hope that this makes the download reliably available. I'm looking forward to developing more samples that I will also be releasing...

This is likely old ground for some, but I thought I’d cover it again just in case. As you may know Visual Studio allows you to create a new web site on IIS. However, there are some minor steps that you need to complete before it will work appropriately. Let’s walk through this. Open Visual Studio .NET 2008 Go to File | Web Site… Click the Browse … button to choose a Location Click on the Local IIS button on the left You’ll notice the IIS 6 Metabase and IIS Configuration Compatibility need to be installed as well as ASP.NET. The next steps we’ll go through will enable this for you. Go to Start | Control Panel and click on the Programs and Features applet Click on the Turn Windows features on or off button on the left From the Windows Features window, select the IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility option under IIS 6 Management Compatibility as well as ASP.NET under Application Development Features Click OK and wait as Windows configures the service...
Some time ago, I tried to start up the IIS Management Console on my Vista machine and I received an exception. After trying a few quick fixes, I gave up. I had several VPC images that I worked from and I didn't particularly need this machine to work when I had so many others. However, I've been doing a great deal of development on this machine now, and having IIS working is obviously rather handy. So, I tracked down the exception and solved my problem. I thought I'd go ahead and chronical my adventures for anyone else who is having this issue and needs help. So first of all, the error that was displayed when I started inetmgr was as follows: --------------------------- Failed to connect --------------------------- There was an error when trying to connect. Do you want to retype your credentials and try again? Details: Creating an instance of the COM component with CLSID {2B72133B-3F5B-4602-8952-803546CE3344} from the IClassFactory failed due to the following error: 8007000d...
So lately I have been looking into these two web sites a lot more and it isn’t always easy to figure out which one is used for what. So I thought I would try to explain it here. Code Gallery is a community-enabled Web site where you can share developer Read More......( read more ) Read More...
A common issue we see customers having is after installing ASP.NET 2.0, the ASP.NET Tab is missing from IIS. This tab is used for setting the version of ASP.NET and a lot of other things. When this tab is missing, it can be rather difficult to get it Read More......( read more ) Read More...
Everybody knows that IIS FastCGI is a great way to run PHP applications on IIS. We've been making great strides at delivering a solid production experience for hosting PHP on IIS, for both IIS7 on Windows Vista/Windows Server 2008 and IIS6 / IIS5.1 on Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP. So, if you are looking to give FastCGI a try, where should you start? With all the coverage this work has been receiving, its starting to get out of hand. Get all the information you absolutely need to know to get started at: http://mvolo.com/blogs/serverside/archive/2007/10/09/IIS-FastCGI-and-PHP_3A00_-What-you-absolutely-need-to-know-to-host-PHP-applications-on-IIS-6-and-IIS-7.aspx .

September 24th saw the release of Windows Server 2008 RC0 and along with that comes the latest release of IIS 7.0. One of the great new features of IIS 7 is the remote administration support built into InetMgr (the administration UI). The admin UI provides server administrators with some powerful features for enabling remote administration of the server and individual sites and application (both admins and non-admins alike). I'll talk a lot more about Remote Administration in upcoming posts but for now I want to talk about and show you how to remotely administer IIS 7 (RC0) from Windows XP, 2k3 and Vista. In order to remotely administer IIS 7 (RC0) from Windows XP, 2k3 or Vista you need to download and install the wonderfully named "Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0 Manager", Remote Manager for short. Once downloaded and installed you'll be able to connect to and administer your IIS 7 installation. This is a long post so I've included the following links to help: Windows Vista Requirements...
