Verifying the Application Pool of a Web Application

You must match the web application pool version of the source and target machine. 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 verify this, and create a new web application pool, if required.

▷: If a website is not available on the third-party machine, you need to create one.

▷: IIS is installed.

1.: Click Start and type IIS in the Search programs and files field.

2.: Click IIS Manager to open the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.

3.: To verify the Application Pool .Net Framework Version, proceed as follows:

-: On the source machine, go to the Connections pane and select the web application that you want to export, and from the Actions pane select Basic Settings.

⇨: The Edit Application window displays.

-: Click Select to open the Select Application window.

-: In the Select Application window, under the Properties field, check the .Net Framework Version and Managed Pipeline Mode.

-: On the target machine, open the IIS Manager.

-: From the Connections pane, select Application Pools.

-: Ensure that the version of the Web Application Pool (check for .Net Framework Version and Managed Pipeline Mode) is the same as available.

4.: To create a Web Application Pool with the .NET framework version and Managed Pipeline Mode settings the same as the source machine, proceed as follows:

-: From the Connections pane, select Application Pool.

-: From the Actions pane, click Add Application Pool.

-: In the Add Application Pool window that displays, do the following:
- Provide the Application Pool Name.
- Select the .NET framework version to be the same as source machine.
