Editing a Web Application

Before editing a Web Application, you must ensure that the Web Application Pool version of the source and target machine matches. If the Web Application Pool version does not match, you must create a new one that matches the settings on the source machine. The following procedure describes how to do this.

▷: IIS is opened and you have selected the imported Web Application in IIS.

1.: In the Actions pane, click Basic Settings.

⇨: The Edit Application dialog box displays.

2.: In the Edit Application dialog box, click Select.

3.: In the Select Application dialog box, you must verify the following:

-: Ensure that the version of Application Pool: .Net Framework Version and Managed Pipeline Mode is the same as the application pool version on the source machine.

-: (Optional and required only when the Application Pool version does not match with the source machine) Create Application Pool.

-: Click OK.

4.: In the Edit Application dialog box, click Connect as.

5.: In the Connect As window, select the Specific User option and click Set.

⇨: The Set Credentials window opens.

6.: In the Set Credentials window, enter a user name (domain user credentials with which you have shared the project and virtual directories) and a password and confirm it.

7.: Click OK.

8.: Click OK in the Connect As dialog box.

9.: In the Edit Application dialog box, click Test Settings to open the Test Connection dialog box.

10.: In the Test Connection dialog box, ensure that both results—Authentication and Authorization—are successful and the message The specified user credentials are valid displays in the Details section.

11.: Click Close to close the Test Connection dialog box.

12.: Click OK to close the Edit Application dialog box.
