Software Prerequisites > Installing ASP.NET

These instructions for additional ASP.NET install procedures and the installation of the ASP.NET AJAX Extensions as a software prerequisite apply to ImageServer only.

ASP.NET Registration

There is a known issue if you install or enable IIS after installing the .NET 2.0 framework that can prevent ASP.NET applications from working properly. With the ImageServer, sometimes after installation the web browser may show a blank page or a server error message. To avoid these problems, you must register ASP.NET with IIS. The following command can be run from a command prompt. Adjust the path if your Windows directory is different.

32-Bit: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

64-Bit: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

Run the command from a command prompt to install ASP.NET

Windows Server 2003 .NET 2.0 Support

By default, Windows Server 2003 comes with .NET 1.1 installed with ASP.NET. The ImageServer requires ASP.NET 2.0. After ensuring that .NET 2.0 is installed, and is registered with IIS, the following procedure is required:

1.	Open Internet Information Services Manager

2.	Right-click on the Default Web Site and click Properties.

3.	Click on the ASP.NET tab.

4.	Select ASP.NET 2.0 as the default version.

Select the 2.0 version of ASP.NET.

ASP.NET AJAX Extensions

AJAX Extensions are required to access the ImageServer web interface. Without it, you will receive a Server Error in '/ImageServer' Application message upon logging in.
