Hi,
I had to put on an web app which uses ASP.NET 2.0 on my fully patched
SBS2003 SP2 machine and just discovered that tha ASP.NET tabs are missing
from my IIS6!!!!

Does anyone have any idea on how to get them back?

Many thanks!

OK. After extensive searching on the web...... It seems that installing
certain software on the server modified the metabase.xml file and made the
IIS believe that it is a 32-bit process running on a 64-bit OS (which is
untrue). So here are the steps to rectify my situation (just so anybody
runs into the same problem)

1) Stop the IIS Admin server
2) Open C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\MetaBase.xml in notepad. _DELETE_ the
line that reads 'Enable32BitAppOnWin64="TRUE"'
3) Start -> Run -> iisreset (or reboot)

These instructions are what I got off some gurus on the web. Not from
myself. So kudos to whoever discovered and solved this.

BTW, the common cupid of the situation was VMWare server. However, I don't
know if other software can cause the some problem.

Hi mlai,

Glad to see you've figured out the problem. Yes, this is a known issue of
running IIS in 32 bit mode on a 64 bit Windows operating system.

The root cause of this issue is: when we run aspnet_regiis -i or
aspnet_regiis -config under Microsoft.NET\Framework directory, it will
screw up the 64bit registration for MMC, ASP.NET tab will disappear, i.e:
as long as 32bit aspnet_regiis is run, 64bit MMC won't work. If we run
aspnet_regiis -i -enable under Framework64, ASP.NET tab will show on MMC
again.

As the following Knowledge Base article described, the solution is to use
the command line tool to configure different versions of ASP.NET.

How to switch between the 32-bit versions of ASP.NET 1.1 and the 64-bit
version of ASP.NET 2.0 on a 64-bit version of Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=894435

To configure on individual web application/virtual directory level, you can
run:

aspnet_regiis -s <path of the application>
(Install scriptmaps for this version at the specified path, recursively.
Existing scriptmaps of lower version are upgraded to this version.)

E.g. aspnet_regiis.exe -s W3SVC/1/ROOT/SampleApp1

OR

aspnet_regiis -sn <path of the application>
(Install scriptmaps for this version at the specified path,
non-recursively. Existing scriptmaps of lower version are upgraded to this
version.)

Have a nice day.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang

In this case, the Enable32BitAppOnWin64 property shouldn't be set in
metabase. Next time you can use Metabase Explorer utility to modify the key
and properties other than editing metabase.xml directly. The tool is
included in IIS6 reskit tools:

Have a great day.
