Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS): configuration error

I am installing file en_sharepoint_server_2013_with_sp1_x64_dvd_3823428.iso on a Windows Server 2012 R2 that is a Virtual Machine in VMWare. After mounting the file I run prerequisiteinstaller.exe, which errors with:
Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS): configuration error
After some research I am pointed to KB2771431. I download Hotfix file Windows8-RT-KB2771431-x64.msu, which it says is for Windows Server 2012 but when attempting to install I get error:
The update is not applicable to your computer.
My question is where do I go from here?

Can you try to install the most recent .NET Framework updates?

    Hi Awen,
    Please open Server Manager > Roles > see if Web Server (IIS) has been installed.
    If installed, I’d recommend you refer to Abdel’s method in the link below. He encountered the same issue when install SharePoint 2013 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and fixed the problem. For your reference:

  • SharePoint 2013 preinstaller error - The tool was unable to install Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role.

    I have been banging my head over and over searching for the fix and nothing has worked. Google used to be my friend. I am having doubts.
    Windows 2012 Server with IIS installed during the server creation using VMware Vshpere. Here is the log from the SP prep tool.

    It looks like you may have extracted the files to C:\sp2013. Can you try installing from a mounted ISO instead? Can you also validate that this is Server 2012 and not 2012 R2?

  • Prerequisiteinstaller.exe error - unable to install Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role

    Windows Server 2012 R2 running on Hyper-V VM.  File services, App server & IIS roles installed
    SQL Server 2012 installed
    Tried:
    kb 2765260 method 1 which is kb 2771431 which ends with "not applicable to computer"
    kb 2765260 method 2 with no effect (this was power shell commands for PC's connected to the internet)
    One post suggested "aspnet_regii - enable -i" but my OS doesn't have aspnet_regii on it (not sure what that implies)
    One post suggested ServerManagerCmd.exe needed to be installed which sounds true as shown below (but where do I find this exe?)
    There are some errors in the log file,  I only included the portions where the errors are listed.  The initial lines are at the top of the log file, then I skipped to the section where the other errors were.  I can include the whole log if
    it becomes necessary.

    I'm presuming the first 2 errors are OK and just indicate optional startup modes for prerequisiteinstaller.exe
    The 2nd set of errors seems more serious.  I don't see ServerManagerCmd.exe on my PC that's listed in the error
    I don't understand the last error which I'm supposing triggered the listed error even though there are other errors in the log.
    Many of the existing posts don't match the configuration I'm using, and the ones that do match didn't seem to provide a usable answer.  Any help is appreciated.  Do these problems exist using Sever 2012 Standard?  I will try that, but would
    like to resolve the issue here with R2.
    Thanks.
    Best Regards,
    Alan

    ServerManagerCMD.exe is a deprecated utility and (as far as I know) is only found on Server 2008 versions, so I'm surprised it's needed for the preinstaller.  Are you trying to install SharePoint 2010?
    Running this page through Google Translate should give you an clearer idea on getting this installed.

  • Preinstaller failing at install Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role

    Hi, 
     I am trying to install SharePoint 2013 on Windows 2008 R2. I have database MS SQL Server 2012 on the same machine itself. My SharePoint Preinstaller fails at installing Application server and Web server roles.. Even though the roles get created, they
    don't complete because ASP.Net activation fails. Here is my log:

    Please help!!!  I am going on 9 days now trying to install SharePoint 2013 onto a VM.  I have tried Hyper-V and VMWare and am getting the same result with both.
    Running Windows 8.1  with 16 GBs of RAM.
    The pre-req installer will not install anything!!  And I get this error:
    The tool was unable to install Application
    Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role
    So I installed the Web Server IIS Role and restart...   still no luck
    Then I ran this command: 
    C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -i -enable
    And get this message: "This option is not supported on this version of the operating system. Admins should instead install/uninstall ASP.NET 4.5 with IIS8 using the "Turn Windows Features On/Off dialog....
    9 days of cussing and pulling my hair out...  please someone help..  I just want to run the Pre-Req installer and install SharePoint on a VM Machine. 
    Any help would be appreciated!!  Thanks in advance!
    I just want to confirm that I'm facing exactly the same problem.
    Currently, Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 is not supported for installation on computers running the Windows Server 2012 R2 operating
    system.

    Hi,
    After running the prerequisiteinstaller.exe of SharePoint 2013 I am getting the below error in the logs
    The tool was unable to install Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role.
    Web server role,application server role  is already there in the server.

  • Cannot install SharePoint 2013 with SP1 on server 2012 R2. IIS configuration error

    Hey Guys,
    I'm experiencing a problem which seems to be common considering the number of posts I've found about it, but none of the provided solutions worked for me.
    I'm simply trying to install SharePoint 2013 with SP1 on a Windows Server Standard 2012 R2.
    I've downloaded from the MS Volume Licensing website the "SharePoint Server 2013 with SP1" ISO file :  SW_DVD5_SharePoint_Server_2013w_SP1_64Bit_English_MLF_X19-36118. So
    this is the slipstreamed version which is supposed to bring compatibility with 2012 R2.
    As I do not have direct access to the Internet I need to perform an offline installation. I also downloaded all prerequisities. When I run prerequisiteinstaller.exe with the necessary arguments, I get the following :
    (Full log file is below)
    I've tried the following :
    - Restarted the server multiple times
    - Manually removing/adding IIS role + restart
    - Running the prerequisiteinstaller.exe from the DVD or from an extracted version
    - Manually installing the prerequisities
    - Installed .Net 3.5 as recommended here (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/0b597d35-b02d-4236-894d-38efc0c7c6f6/sharepoint-2013-with-sp1-install-on-windows-server-2012-r2?forum=sharepointgeneral)
    None of the worked. So I'm stuck and I must completed the installation of this before the end of the week for an important project !
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Web Dynpro application calling external web server using HTTPS giving error

    Hello,
    I don't know whether this is the right question in this forum but my ABAP web-dynpro applicaiton is expected to call another HTTP application on external web server through HTTPS. Presently it is calling through plain HTTP but we want to have HTTPS.
    Here are the steps that we followed based on the link from help.sap.com
    1] Received the certificate files from external web server
    2] Created SSL Anonymous client
    3] Imported the certificate files under this client and added into the certificate list
    4] Re-started ICM
    5] Created RFC Destination of type HTTP to connect to external server with SSL option and basic authentication. This RFC destination was working under plain HTTP.
    When tried with Test connection it gave error "ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED".
    Any idea what might be missing. Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Rajeev

    Used proper certificate after which the error went away

  • Application server vs web server

    Hi,
    I am not sure what is the difference of application server and web server? It looks pretty similar to me for both running web application. But, people do associate them with different products. Could someone please explain to me the differences?
    Thanks.

    A WebServer is a Program that serves up web pages to the internet an AppliacationServer Serves up functional programs to the internet Imagine if instead of buying a
    Spreadsheet, text editor, wysiwyg, hex editor and calender you could just buy a "Specialized Webbrowser type program" where you could start it up and it would log onto the application Server where you could pick whatever application you wanted to use at that point and run it with out installing it on your machine for a monthy fee. that is what an application server does personally I don't like the idea of not being able to complete my work because somebody cracked some unsecure server but it is the future of desktop functionality..
         Good luck ,
         --Ian

  • Trouble launching extension-associated applications through WebLogic Web Server

    We are using WebLogic 7.1 to do a simple document management system. We have a
    servlet that generates HTML. The HTML contains a hyperlink to document that is
    served through WebLogic Web Server, via a Web Application, and is located in the
    application directory.
    The problem is, when you click on the hyperlink, an application associated with
    the extension (for example, Microsoft Word for .doc extension) is not launched.
    Instead, the browser brings up the document in its raw form directly in the browser
    window.
    This feature works properly when you browse to other sites that contain hyperlinks
    to Word Documents (Microsoft Word gets launched properly within the browser).
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Jay,
    During my on going testing on our DR site, across all the issues which kind of fixed and working now – I have come across 1 which I am a little amazed with
    While trying to run the ping and buffer on REN SERVER
    ERROR 404 Page not found. Everything is set up perfectly to what I understand.
    Env. – HR to portal .
    Request goes to RPS passes the firewall goes to LB and to REN and so on along with that.
    Initially the Setup was incorrect which is corrected now. Then LB was listening to desired port – which was not activated while RPS was brought up – we have fixed that. so for now LB listens to port.
    We have bounced app/prcs and cleared cache. But when tried to ping test – 404 (page not found error )
    I have checked config.xml / struts-config.xml and web.xml – jus to verify the document root and context is alrite. Looks Good.
    Checked logs - No specific error.
    HR – Websphere … RPS apache...
    Portal – Weblogic
    Tools - 8.49.18
    App - 9.0 (HR)
    RENQ is up and running.
    REN Server Cluster ID: RENCLSTR_0002

    *REN Server Cluster URL: https://psportal:8065
    *REN Server Browser URL: https://psportal.dowjones.net:8065

    I want to know what are the benefits of using application server over the traditional web servers.
    If I am using Tomcat with Apache, what should be my driving force to move from the current architecture, to an architecture involving web server as well as application servers.
    I would really appreciate some intelligent answers in this regards.

    I liked that explaination for the app server.
    Since I got seem feedback to my question, I would try to broaden the scope of the question, to understand better.
    Currently I use tomcat in sync with Apache to handle the JSP calls.
    I havent had the chance to work on EJBs, messaging stuff like you described.
    I want to know what extra does one get out of those components.
    Even if there provide extra benefits, what is the reason that you need an full blown application server like JRun, JBoss, WebSphere instead of Tomcat.
    Please bear with my ignorance on this issue.

  • Posting documents from application/jsp server to web server

    I need to allow users to upload documents (ie. pdf, doc, ppt, etc) on the application I am building. I am using the FileUpload classes from Jakarta's commons fileUpload. The application that the commons-fileupload-1.0.jar resides on is on the application server. The directories where the documents need to post to are located on the Web Server. Does anyone have any methods or resources for doing this?

    You could specify a remote directory for upload... the one on the web server.

  • What am I doing wrong when running multiple applications with the Web Server enabled ?

    I am running multiple Vi's (applications) on the same Nt Workstation and the Web Server is enable for all applications. However, I am able to view only one Panel from the browser. Only the first application that is started can be viewed. What am I doing wrong ?

    Only one application can act as a web server at the default http port 80.
    To solve this either run all VIs into a single application or use different
    http ports for each application. For example an application can use the
    default port 80 and others use ports 8080, 8081, 8082 etc.
    In the browser, you enter the URL for non default ports as
    http://hostname:8080/...
