Configuration on IIS 7...

[pkreipke]

I'm trying to install Checkbox 4.6 on IIS 7 and am having trouble getting started - the instructions are all about earlier versions of IIS. I'm sure I can learn IIS 7 mgmt eventually but does anyone know if there are Prezza docs on the subject or have experience installing Checkbox on IIS 7?

Thanks in advance,

IIS 7 is not officially supported at this time. That being many of our customers run on IIS 7 without issue. At this time we do not have any documentation which covers installing the product on IIS 7, but I believe it will be included with our next release.

Is there a specific error message you are receiving?

I was receiving a "Required permissions could not be acquired" but that went away when I set "Load User Profile" to True in the new application pool (which I also set to 'Classic' mode).

Now however, I get "Resource not found" messages no matter the URL.

I'm a little surprised I can't find any info anywhere on what people have tried for Checkbox Server specifically.

Are you manually typing in the URL or have you tried right clicking on Install\Default.aspx in IIS and selecting "Browse"?

Interesting idea. But no difference. I suspect that I don't have the application/application pool identity matching permissions on the files/folders. I tried giving NETWORK_SERVICE access to the files and folders but that didn't do it.

The simplest way to determine if it is a permissions issue would be to grant the Everyone group full control of the Checkbox directory and its sub folders.
