Installer failing on Windows Server 2003 SP1 (Please urgent)


Hi All,

I am trying to install my software on a Windows Server 2003 SP 1. It is
complaining that IIS must be 4.0 or higher and that it must be an NT,
2000 or higher, and the installationprocess is aborted.

The software is a web .Net 2.0 application, the .msi is created from VS2005.

However, IIS 6.0 is installed, and Windows Server 2003 SP1 is installed.

Anyone have any solution or pointers to what might be causing this?

I have run the installation on several computers (XP, 2003) before without
any problem.


Kind Regards,
Robert

Reinstalling IIS 6, and adding the following features did the trick.. not sure
which of them helped.. But I'm glad it finally worked :)

ASP.NET
Enable network COM+ access

also added..

FTP Service
FrontPage Extensions
World Wide Web Service
