Using Microsoft Dynamics NAV Setup to Install IIS Features

  • Article

When you install the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components, you can use the Dynamics NAV Setup wizard to enable Internet Information Services (IIS) and the IIS features that are required to run the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client. If IIS is already enabled on the computer and you do not want Setup to change the configuration, then you can use Setup to detect which required features are not enabled. Afterward, you can manually enable the features, and then install the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components.

IIS Installation Options

To install or detect the IIS features on the computer where you are installing the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components, you set the Install IIS prerequisites parameter on Specify Parameters page of the Setup wizard. The parameter has the following options.

Value Description
Install Setup enables IIS and the required features for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client and installs the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components. If IIS is already enabled on the computer, then Setup enables any required features that are not currently enabled.
Detect Setup detects whether IIS and the required features for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client are enabled on the computer, and then does the following:

- If the required IIS features are enabled, then Setup installs the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components.
- If any IIS features are not enabled, then Setup does not install the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components and an error report is generated that lists the required features. You must enable the required features, and then run Setup again to install the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components.
Skip Setup installs the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Server components without detecting whether IIS or the required features are enabled. Setup does not change the IIS setup.
