How to add ASP NET 4 0 as Application Pool on IIS 7 Windows 7

Question

Configuring servers is not my strong suit by any means  I m trying to move a development project to Windows 7  One of the things that I need to run the application is to select ASP NET v4 0 as the application pool within IIS   I went through the directions in the following link to make sure that the proper Application Development Options were selected   http   www gotknowhow com articles how-to-install-iis7-and-enable-aspnet  From within the IIS Manager  I select Application Pools and only see - Classic  NET AppPool - DefaultAppPool  I need to also be able to select from - ASP NET v4 0 - ASP NET v4 0 Classic  How can I add these to the list of available application pools

Open a windows command line  Switch directories to C  Windows Microsoft Net Framework v4 0 xxxx where the x s are the build number  Type aspnet regiis -ir and hit enter  This should register  Net v4 0 and create the application pools by default  If it doesn t  you will need to create them manually by right-clicking the Application Pools folder in IIS and choosing Add Application Pool   Edit  As a reference  please refer to the section of the linked document referring to the -i argument   http   msdn microsoft com en-us library k6h9cz8h aspx

I just encountered this and whilst we already had  NET 4 0 installed on the server it turns out we only had the  Client Profile  version and not the  Full  version  Installing the latter fixed the problem

Chances are you need to install  NET 4  Which will also create a new AppPool for you  First make sure you have IIS installed then perform the following steps   Open your command prompt  Windows   R  and type cmd and press ENTER You may need to start this as an administrator if you have UAC enabled  To do so  locate the exe  usually you can start typing with Start Menu open   right click and select  quot Run as Administrator quot  Type cd C  Windows Microsoft NET Framework v4 0 30319  and press ENTER  Type aspnet regiis exe -ir and press ENTER again   If this is a fresh version of IIS  no other sites running on it  or you re not worried about the hosted sites breaking with a framework change you can use -i instead of -ir  This will change their AppPools for you and steps 5-on shouldn t be necessary  at this point you will see it begin working on installing  NET s framework in to IIS for you   Close the DOS prompt  re-open your start menu and right click Computer and select Manage Expand the left-hand side  Services and Applications  and select Internet Information Services  You ll now have a new applet within the content window exclusively for IIS    Expand out your computer and locate the Application Pools node  and select it   You should now see ASP NET v4 0 listed  Expand out your Sites node and locate the site you want to modify  select it  To the right you ll notice Basic Settings    just below the Edit Site text  Click this  and a new window should appear Select the  NET 4 AppPool using the Select    button and click ok  Restart the site  and you should be good-to-go    You can repeat steps 7-on for every site you want to apply  NET 4 on as well    Additional References    NET 4 Framework The framework for those that don t already have it  How do I run a command with elevated privileges  Directions on how to run the command prompt with Administrator rights  aspnet regiis exe options For those that might want to know what -ir or -i does  or the difference between them  or what other options are available   I typically use -ir to prevent any older sites currently running from breaking on a framework change but that s up to you
