Question

I want to update the IIS server from 5.0 to 6.0 or higher.

The condition is that I cant upgrade the server. My machine is Windows XP SP3

Is there any way I can only update the IIS.

Was it helpful?

Solution

You can install IIS Express 7.5 on Windows XP. Note that the Express version is a lightweight (yet fully featured) version of IIS meant for development purposes, not production hosting. You shouldn't use Windows XP as a production server anyway.

OTHER TIPS

You can run it on XP Pro 32bit

Check the link here - http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/868/iis-express-overview/

I have installed IIS 6.0 Manager for my Windows XP SP3 32-bit from this link:

In Control Panel->Administration Tool (I guess its name translated from italian :) now I have two items:

  • Internet Information Services - the 5.1 version bundled with the OS
  • Internet Information Services (IIS6) Manager - the installed version from the link above
