    How to use .Net Framework Version 3.5 with IIS 5.1

    Reply Contact

    How do I make sure my IIS 5.1 is using correct framework version and not older (.NET Framework 3.5).

    Is it only through web.config.. Would I able to see my .NET Framework 3.5 in IIS web site properties through asp.net version tab. Just like previously .net framework 2.0 and 1.1

    Would I need to have both .NET framework 3.5 and .NET framework 2.0 installed if some part of my application is complied in .net framework 2.0.

    Although i m hoping .net framework 3.5 would be backward complaince.

    Thanks,

    Vik

    No.  ASP.NET 3.5 is the ASP.NET 2.0 CLR, so you set any ASP.NET 3.5 app as 2.0 in the application process.  Think of ASP.NET 3.5 as really ASP.NET 2.0 but with extra cool stuff.  And blame Microsoft for confusing numbering.

    Using 3.5 will run any 2.0 app except that you need to compile to the 3.5 framework.  You also will need to use VS/VWD 2008 to do that.

    For more on ASP.NET versions, see the forums at www.asp.net.  Same login as here.

    didn't understand exactly, when you say complile it to 3.5, i assume you are referring through web.config, which changes according to new settingg using VS 2008.

     Should machine need to have .Net Framework 2.0 along with .Net Framework 3.5

    IIS itself would be .Net 2.0, you would control the compile to 3.5 (which just sits on top of .NET 2.0).
