ASP.NET 1.0 is supported only in IIS 5.0 isolation mode in IIS 6.0

On This Page

SUMMARY

The Microsoft .NET Framework supports side-by-side execution of multiple versions of ASP.NET on the same computer. Currently, there are two versions of ASP.NET, version 1.0 and version 1.1.

You can run Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 in one of two possible modes on Microsoft Windows Server 2003, IIS 5.0 isolation mode and Worker Process isolation mode. ASP.NET version 1.1 is supported in both modes of IIS 6.0. However, ASP.NET version 1.0 is supported only in IIS 5.0 isolation mode.

MORE INFORMATION

By default, Windows Server 2003 includes Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1 and IIS 6.0. On a computer running Windows Server 2003, you can also install Microsoft .NET Framework 1.0. You can run both versions of ASP.NET on the same computer. This is one of the features of the .NET Framework.

As discussed in the "Summary" section, IIS 6.0 runs in two possible modes. ASP.NET version 1.0 is not supported in IIS 6.0 Worker Process isolation mode. However, you can create an ASP.NET version 1.0 application in Visual Studio .NET 2002 when IIS 6.0 is configured to run in Worker Process isolation mode. When you run the ASP.NET application, you will notice that, instead of using version 1.0 of the .NET Framework, the application uses version 1.1. For more information about how to configure an ASP.NET application for a particular version of the .NET Framework, see "Configuring an ASP.NET Application for an ASP.NET Version" in the "References" section.

Verify the IIS Isolation Mode

The isolation mode is a system setting. All Web applications on the computer run in only one mode. To verify the isolation mode of IIS 6.0, follow these steps:
  1. Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager:
    1. Click Start, and then click Run.
    2. Type inetmgr, and then click OK.
  2. Expand (local computer). Right-click Web Sites, and then click Properties.
  3. Click the Service tab.
  4. Verify that Run WWW Service in IIS 5.0 isolation mode is selected. If this option is selected, all applications are configured to run in IIS 5.0 isolation mode.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
