Re: Deploying IIS 6.0 Application To IIS 5.0



Hi ,

I don't think there will be an issue in this regard , you applications can be seamlessly deployed and run on production server configuration .

From IIS 6.0 onwards MS has introduced enhancements like WP running inproc with IIS , but then there won't be a major impact on your applications .

Also you would like to check on .Net framework versions installed , as they should be same for exact results , else on a older version you may get into an issue .

Hope this helps ,

Hello All,
Question regarding application compatibility...

We have been developing an asp.net application and deployed to a test
environment consisting of
Windows server 2003 Web Edition, IIS 6.0 and MDAC 2.8 SP2.

Prior to production deployment, it was noticed (I know.....) that our
production server is in fact running Windows 2000 with IIS5.0

Will my 2003/IIS 6.0 application work with my Win2k/IIS5.0 setup?

I would assume not, but have been engaged by a developer that finds my
concerns with this discrepancy to be somewhat laughable.

Can any one provide me with a good answer, as I have looked and information
on this topic is lacking (probably because no one would consider doing what
my developer says is a piece of cake...)

Please help.

Any and all feedback is most welcome.

Thanks for your time.

B.
