Sorry if it looks so simple.
Am trying to find when W3wp.exe will show up in the process list. Am using Windows 2012 beta with IIS 8. I have web and wcf applications deployed in it. And i tried to browse the pages locally. But am not seeing process.
Please let me know if am missing something.
Thanks
Finally it worked. But i dono the exact root cause earlier
restarted the machine
Opened VS With Admin Previlages
i was able to see the process listed
Adding up -- For W3wp.exe to appear in the process list instance shuold be running already !
make sure to check
Show all processes in all sessions

I hope this is the right place to ask. I was thinking serverfault might not be correct, since the computer in question is not a server. Feel free to migrate if StackOverflow is not right.
I usually install IIS on servers but have installed it on Workstations before. I actually had the same problem with another machine of the same model a few weeks ago but can't remember how I resolved it. I must have installed additional features or run some powershell-command that did not resolve the issue on this machine.
I installed IIS the correct way using the Windows Features, as described in the answers to this question. I've actually removed and reinstalled it since then, but it hasn't resolved my problem.
The WWW publishing service is running and I can open the IIS Manager, but it's completely empty, unlike here where the IIS Manager at least shows the local computer
When I type localhost into a browser I don't see the IIS Startpage, I get the error ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
You can see that all the required checkboxes are checked:
And the service seems to be running.
I've since tried installing IIS using
DISM:
Powershell:
And I checked the status using the iisreset command which was mentioned in the comments here (second linked question upstairs):
It restarts without any error and says everything is working fine.
Has anyone ever encountered this before or might know what I could try to get IIS actually working?
Edit:
I just noticed, while trying to uninstall IIS, that I can not uninstall it. I used Windows-Features and confirmed to reboot when prompted, but while rebooting Windows does a rollback and IIS is still available. So I can't even uninstall it.
Also just found this similar quesion on SuperUser. I'm still trying some suggestions there. So far to no avail.
Thanks for the comments.
I was on vacation, but a colleague was able to fix the problem.
Unfortunately, the solution was to reset Windows 11. He was then able to install IIS through Windows Features and it worked.
No idea why it didn't work in the first place, or why it got to this unrecoverable state. But now everything is fine.
Every time I build my solution and try to start debugging, I get this message:
Unable to start debugging on the web server. The web server did not respond on a timely manner. This maybe another debugger is attached to the web server.
If I restart my IIS, I can start debugging but If I build again I have to restart my IIS again. I saw several people having same issue but no one same as mine exactly.
Open your cmd in administrator mode and run cmd
iisreset

Like this answer:
1)
Try going to IIS and checking to make sure the App Pool you are using
is started. A lot of times, you will produce an error that shuts down
the app pool. You just need to right click and Start and you should be
good to go.
2) And this answer
Turns out that the culprit was the IIS Url Rewrite module. I had
defined a rule that redirected calls to Default.aspx (which was set as
the start page of the web site) to the root of the site so that I
could have a canonical home URL. However, apparently VS had a problem
with this and got confused. This problem did not happen when I was
using Helicon ISAPI_Rewrite so it didn't even occur to me to check.
I ended up creating a whole new web site from scratch and porting
projects/files over little by little into my solution and rebuilding
my web.config until I found this out! Well, at least now I have a
slightly cleaner site using .NET 4.0 (so far, hopefully I won't run
into any walls)--but what a pain!
I am having below mentioned issue when I am running Asp.Net MVC 2 project on windows Azure emulator (dev environment)
I have installed Windows Azure SDK for .NET - October 2012 version and I am using cache feature on my system.
With above error Below one is also comming.
How to get rid of this ?
Maybe I have an stupid solution, but that works with me.
When I begin to recieve the message "CacheInstaller.exe has stopped working", I do the following:
1) Stop the execution.
2) Go to the Role I'm using in the Azure project and open the corresponding Properties page.
3) Go to the "Caching" section and there I uncheck the "Enable Caching" checkbox. After that I checked again.
4) Save*, Run de application and never the warning appear again.
Is weird because nothing should change if you uncheck and check it again an option without save in the middle, but in this case when you do that the file changes (I can see it in the red icon that said something change there, :P)
I hope this helps. Cheers.
Do you have any error messages in the event log that may give more hint.
It could be an issue with missing dlls, do you have the windows server appFabric installed as well on this machine, which may be leading to a conflict with the dlls?
A procmon log might help you see what file paths its looking for.

I banged my head against the wall on this one as well. I finally figured out the problem after digging deep into the crash-dump logs located within: C:\Users\{YOU}\AppData\Local\dftmp\Resources\{GUID}\directory\DiagnosticStore\AzureCaching\
AzureCaching does not allow UNC paths.
As my primary .net dev is from a vm, my documents/projects drive is mapped to my native drive located at: \\psf\Home\Documents\... Once I moved the project to the vm c:/ drive, CacheInstaller worked as intended.
Might as well post my experience as I was unable to locate anything on this specific problem.
I found today that if my system time was more than about 10 minutes wrong then CacheInstaller.exe bailed out on starting the emulator.
That includes the combination of system time and timezone being wrong, presumably as it results in an inability to calculate the correct UTC time at which Azure operates. Fixing the system clock resolved the issue in my case.
I have two cloud solutions (.ccproj files). Each has a single distinct web role. One project runs under Compute Emulator without any problems but when I try to run another one (the first one not running) Visual Studio will package it and then display
Windows Azure Tools: There was no endpoint listening at net.pipe://localhost/dfagent/2/host that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.
Windows Azure Tools: The Windows Azure compute emulator is not running or responding. Stopping the debugging session.
I'm using SDK version 1.4
I Googled for a while but couldn't find anything that could help me. Force starting the Compute Emulator (csrun /devfabric:start) doesn't seem to help.
How do I resolve this problem?
Although an old question, I got this issue recently and the reason for it was that - while the service or website in azure would have been removed or stopped and you try to publish to it. If this happens, check the publish profile to see that you are pointing to the correct service/site including the storage acc etc and correct them. Hope it helps someone.
My problem is when I run my MVC 3 app and try to attach to the w3wp process it is not listed in my available processes window and I'm completely stumped as to why not.
I've done everything as mentioned in Phil Haacks article. http://haacked.com/archive/2008/11/26/asp.net-mvc-on-iis-6-walkthrough.aspx - In IIS application configuration I've added aspnet_isapi as a wildcard application map. The views are .cshtml which weren't showing on the available extensions list so I added that but still no joy finding to process to attach to.
Has anyone experienced similar before and found the cause?
Cheers
are you sure you're viewing all processes running under all users? Typically W3WP isn't running under your user account, but NETWORK SERVICE or SYSTEM instead.
