Users of Vista who configure and then access the IIS Administrator for the first time are in for a little surprise. The look and feel is quite different from the IIS Administrator installed on XP machines. Nevertheless, you can easily set up and test your ASP.NET applications locally with a few simple steps.

Here is all that you need to do to configure IIS on Vista to run your Clarion.NET ASP.NET applications.

1. Add a Virtual Directory.

2. Make sure that you configure the Virtual Directory to run as an application.

3. Set the Application Pool to use the Classic.NET AppPool (Do not use the Default Pool)

**Other possible IIS issues**

Some users have reported the following issues when running IIS with other programs active.

**Problem:** If Skype is running, the Default Web Site could not be started.

**Solution:** Go to Skype's **Tools** **>** **Advanced-Connection** options and turn off //Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections// (Or you can just turn Skype off).

**Problem:** You are using substituted drives for your projects. After Clarion .NET registers the new Virtual directory, IIS can not find than path.

**Solution:** Change the //Local path:// folder in Virtual Directory properties in IIS to the actual (real) path and everything should be OK.
