Installing IIS 7.0 on Windows Server2008

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

By default, IIS 7 is not installed on Windows Server 2008. You can install IIS by using the Add Roleswizard in Server Manager or by using the command line.

When you install Windows Server 2008, you can perform a Server Core installation, which installs aminimal server installation of Windows Server 2008. For example, with this type of installation thetraditional Windows interface is not installed, so you must configure the server from the commandprompt.

If you use a Server Core installation, you cannot install some modules that rely on the .NET Frameworkor managed code. For this reason, we also provide procedures that show how to install IIS 7 on aWindows Server 2008 Server Core installation.
