Installing IIS 7 on Windows 2008 Server

I’ve been testing our Windows 2008, and had a bit of trouble initially trying to figure out how to install IIS 7 on Windows 2008 Server. After a bit of research, I found you need do as follows:

1. Open Server Manager -> Start Menu -> All Programs -> Administrative Tools -> Server Manager
2. Add a Server Role: In the server manager, select Roles. Click “Add Roles”
3. Click Next when you get the Add Roles Wizard.
4. Select Web Server (IIS) from the list of roles.
5. Select the options you wish to install, and click the Add Required Roles Services if/when it pops up.
6. Click next to install.
