VMWare Server – Missing ASP.NET tab in IIS
I recently ran into this issue after I installed VMWare server on my Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) w/SP2 OS. I lost the ASP.NET tab in IIS immediately after I installed VMWare Server 1.0.2 build-39867.
Here are the steps to fix the issue:
1) Stop the IIS Admin service (and any services that depend on it)
2) Open C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\MetaBase.xml in notepad or your favorite XML Editor. _DELETE_ the line that reads ‘Enable32BitAppOnWin64=”TRUE”’
3) Start -> Run -> iisreset
Your tab should now be back and functional.
Did I mention that VMWare Server is free? Go get it now: http://www.vmware.com/products/server/
