IIS7 logo

[Express]

I just setup IIS 7 and everything works great so far. No more 2 connection limits like in XP.

The Admin UI looks completely different.

Here is the interesting welcome logo for IIS7:

Wow. It's like totally not a font-based logo.

That was among the worst French I have ever seen...

On the IIS7 front: WTF's with "apache? mysql? php?" Do you even know WHAT IIS7 is and who develops it? If not, then please do not continue monitoring this thread.

Also, IIS never limited multiple connections -- only the XP version of IIS (err, Personal Web thing). When IIS6 was released, XP still had the limit but had access to the IIS6 MMC GUI. Did you install IIS7 on XP???

And do you know if IIS7 MMC GUI will be available for XP... or will the whole thing be?

Common usage?

I installed this in Vista RC2. There is a website with a faq linked to the image I posted. May be that will answer all your questions about admin-ing (sic) from a remote non-Vista machine.

Also, You can try it for yourself on a older build of Vista from th linked page. Microsoft is hosting Virtual servers to explore IIS7 from your machines. The older build is a little different but it should satisfy your curiosity about IIS7.

I am still exploring it, One thing I like with new IIS7 is that each folder can have its own config by dropping the xml config into the folder. The settings can be specified by a global config file too. But this local config feature is great for web hosters.

IIS7 Tracing feature is absolutely beautiful - very nice reports.

I just ported the entire NeoSmart test servers to IIS7 - it works quite well.

PHP 5, MySQL 5.1, Tomcat 5.5.17

It works really fast, and I just love the amount of detail and control. Finally going modular is a big help too.

PHP Info sheet: http://neosmart.ath.cx/

vBulletin on PHP 5, MySQL 5, and IIS7: http://neosmart.ath.cx/vb/

(Guide on piping JSP files via TomCat to IIS: http://neosmart.net/blog/archives/229)

Modularization made it a LOT faster, and it even has dynamic content compression - not just static.

I can tell with the vB demo, it's a hell of a lot faster than it ever was on Windows Server 2003.

Where is the link for download IIS 7 for XP?

[Computer Guru]

There is no and never will be IIS 7 for Windows XP nor Windows Server 2003.

The IIS 7 management center and modular parts also will not be ported to Windows XP/2003.

To benefit from these new features you must upgrade to Vista or Longhorn Server.

:D

Offtopic: You EasyBCD application is great, but it doesn't look good in High DPI mode (mine is set to 120DPI and resolution of around 1400 Horizontal pixels which makes everything look very sharp)

I couldn't get VS2005 web projects to work on it. If I set up a site and pointed it to my root folder, IIS7 runs all fine and dandy but I can't load the site using the URL or file system because there's no more FP server extensions.

If someone know how to get it working, please let us know.

You don't need frontpage extensions for VS2005 web projects -- although it is still supported.

Second you don't even need IIS to run VS2005 web projects. It has a built-in webserver for debugging.

If you need to use IIS for debugging, then VS2005 will create the required metabase entries.

Maybe VS2005 isn't able to change IIS7 metabase entries (I am guessing).

There is a backward compatible mode in IIS7 for legacy apps. Try if that helps.

I will install VS2005 on my Vista box and try it out tomorrow and post if I find anything.
