ASP.NET and IIS

Hi Folks,

I am at the end of my whits end with this issue, I have been scouring the
net for over a week now, hopefully someone maybe able to help me,
Pleaseeeeeee :o)

In IIS you have the 4 Folders below the Local Server, when I right click and
select 'Properties' on the 'Web Sites' Folder, I can click on the ASP.NET tab.

In the top box is the version of ASP.NET being used, I want to change that
from 1.1.4 to 2.0 but cannot, the sites I have running all have the same
section set to 2.0.

The reason I want to change it is I am trying to install SharePoint (Before
anyone says anything I have posted this in the SharePoint Discussion Forum as
well) and it tells me I need ASP.NET v2.0 installed, which is and has been
re-installed as well.

Any help will be gratefully received.

Cheers,

Steff

Look at:
%windir%\Microsoft.Net\Framework[64]\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regii s.exe

Use that tool to upgrade all websites to use ASP.Net 2.0. I forget if
it is -i or -s -- one of the options won't touch the default (1.1.4
setting) and the other will stomp over everything to be whatever
version associated with the aspnet_regiis.exe (hence it is *important*
to run aspnet_regiis.exe from the right folder -- if you run from the
wrong folder, you may horribly break your server).

You did not indicate whether you were using x86 or x64 machine or if
x64 that you are running in 32bit WOW64 mode or 64bit native mode.
Adjust the commandline as appropriate (Framework64 means 64bit native
mode, Framework means 32bit WOW64 mode on x64 and 32bit on x86).
Unfortunately 64bit brings additional compatibility concerns and ways
to hang yourself with compatibility.
