Setup question: ASP.Net Version Registration Requirement warning message

Hi there,

I have only this warning message during the System Configuration Check:

ASP.Net Version Registration Requirement (Warning)
Messages

ASP.Net Version Registration Requirement

64-bit ASP.Net is Registered. Required 32-bit ASP.Net to install Microsoft Reporting Services 2005(32-bit).

Does this mean that I can't install Reporting Services or should I pay no attention to it and continue to install?

I'm running on Windows 64-bit Pro. edition.

Thanks,

Eric

Hi,

as of [1]:

³For Reporting Services (64-bit) installations on 64-bit servers, the 64-bit version of ASP.NET must be installed. For Reporting Services (32-bit) installations on 32-bit systems, and on the 32-bit subsystem (WOW64) of a 64-bit server, the 32-bit version of ASP.NET must be installed.

Guess you tried to install the 32bit Reporting Services edition on a 64bit system.

Okay thanks Jens.

I was using the download from the SQL Server Express web site, but cancelled before

install and then just downloaded from the Visual Web Developer setup wizard where it gives you the option to install Sql Server Express.

The download and install had no errors.

Have a good day

I'm having the same issue - and I am trying to do a full install of 64 bit SS2005 Enterprise on Windows 2003 Enterprise. Yet it keeps warning about needing the 32-bit ASP.net. I'm also surprised how much of the installation ends up in

Program Files (x86)

which I think means its chooseing to install 32 bit versions - and I don't know why.

Do you have the 32-bit version of the .NET Framework installed ?

Hi,

I am having the same problem. Did you find a solution?

Many thanks,

The solution is this:

open a command-line prompt, is using the UAC, press OK, then paste the following:

cscript %SystemDrive%\inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs set w3svc/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1

after that restart the Setup, and you should now have Reporting Services as a installable option, and the warning message should not be shown.

Does this work?

If so what does this mean: 'open a command-line prompt, is using the UAC'

Start - Run - cmd ?

is using UAC what it that supposed to mean?

Suppose it all makes perfect sense to a programmer / developer but could someone possiblly post a version for the rest of us to understand please? ..... That's if it actually works

Starting a command prompt with UAC probably means that if you are using Vista you elevate the Command prompt to have evelated priviledges using the "Run as administrator" option.
