Currently have installed Windows 7 Home premium, im just wondering if i can install IIS7 on this and work on some apps on my home computer ?
Installing IIS 7.5 on Windows 7 Home Premium, Home Basic, or Home Starter. Not sure if that's what you want, though.
You will need to use IIS Express available for free at asp.net.
You absolutely can (IIS 7.5), but for your home PC I would suggest using IIS Express instead.

basically I'm trying to create a simple website using WAMPSERVER, but I tried everty step, using windows feature turn on, cmd, but when I type localhost in firefox or IE, it still shows IIS, what should I do?
If you use a WAMPSERVER on windows the IIS (Internet Information Services) feature should be turned off on your windows computer.
I wanted to publish my website from visual studio but i got "The Web server does not appear to have the FrontPage server extensions installed" error;first I tried to install frontpage but because i didn't have microsoft share point in my administrative tools list and as here said:here,I tried to install webdav 7.5 version,(I believed my iis version was 7)but it gives me error that iis version 7 needs webdav version 7.5!!!
I have googled it and tried so many links more or less(because I couldn't find some parts of them in my computer),I tried enabling webdav and ...
such as:thisand this
but none helped.so I thought maybe I am going wrong,so due to this:which is my own question,i think maybe i am using windows server 2003 and iis6,so i googled to install frontpage for iis6,from here,but I don't have such a thing "FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions" in turn windows features on or off,so what should I do?please help me to get out of this hell,should I upgrade iis6 to iis7?please help,i will be so thankful.
by the way my os is windows 7 64 bit,and I use visual studio 2010.
FrontPage server extensions (FSE) is a server side package that FrontPage and some other Microsoft applications use to upload files to web sites. FSE must be installed on the server in order for these applications to upload files. FSE has nothing to do with Microsoft desktop products directly. It is often installed on Apache systems, for example. cPanel has an option to install it, if you are using that to manage your server.
IIS should come with FSE already installed, AFAIK. That would certainly make sense, with it being a Microsoft product.
I wonder if this problem is due to the Home Edition of Windows I use.
I have several other development machines (Win 7 Pro) and never had problems with this.
When I open a preexisting ASP.Net project which uses the IIS VS 2012 on Windows 8 Home says it is configured for the use with IIS but doesn't find the web server/directory.
The IIS virtual dir exists though. I have the IIS installed (from the standard Windows feature list). I have setup the web application etc. I can even start websites in the browser with localhost. Only thing is VS 2012 can't find the IIS.
Is there a limitiation in Home?
I have a ASP.NET application and I would like to deploy it on a webserver.
So I searched for a some tutorials and most of them tell to enable the IIS Management Console in control panel.But I don't have such an entry in there.
So I guessed that I have some component missing(jigsaw) and used the MS WebPI utility to install IIS components and other things even remotely connected to web development.
I have installed
Web deploy 3.0
IIS Express 7.5
.NET framework 4
and MS web tools for Visual studio 2010.
Still no luck.Run>inetmgr still fails.There is no inetpub folder anywhere.(I expected something like apache htdocs folder)
Excuse me for the newbie question.I am in windows7 home basic.
You are NOT able to use full-fledged IIS with Windows 7 Home Basic.
According to MSDN IIS7 installed on Windows 7 Home Basic is too limited and you won't be able to run ASP.Net application there. IIS Management Console is also unavailable on Windows 7 Home Basic.
I think that you can try IIS Express and all-in-one WebMatrix solution. WebMatrix provides you with a neat interface to start /stop / restart IIS Express and to edit some of IIS Express settings.
I'm working on some old .asp pages. I mostly do VB development so I'm a newbie to .ASP.
How can I run those pages locally for testing?
I'm running Windows XP Home SP2.
I'm guessing I'll need to install a local server, etc.
Yes, you will need a local server. However, IIS doesn't install on XP Home. But like most things, there are workarounds.
Installing IIS on XP home
You will need IIS installed locally to test ASP. IIS is part of XP Pro but not of XP Home.
So officially you will need to upgrade at least to Pro.
There are also some other servers out there ranging from free to not that let you test your ASP code. I've heard of, but not used, Baby Web Server: http://www.pablosoftwaresolutions.com/html/baby_web_server.html
