Summary

This step-by-step article describes how to use command-line tools to upgrade to Microsoft FrontPage 2002 server extensions on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based computer.

Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 include FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions. The information in this article is relevant if you have upgraded your server to Windows Server 2003, and an earlier version of Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions is installed on your server.

Step 1: Install the FrontPage 2002 server extensions on your server

  1. Click Start, point to Control Panel, and then click Add or Remove Programs.
  2. In the left pane, click Add/Remove Windows Components.
  3. In the Windows Components Wizard, click Application Server, and then click Details.
  4. Under Subcomponents of the Applications Server, click Internet Information Services (IIS), and then click Details.
  5. Under Subcomponents of Internet Information Services (IIS), click to select the FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions check box, and then click OK two times.
  6. In the Windows Components Wizard, click Next.
  7. If you are prompted for your Windows Installation CD, insert the CD or locate the installation files.
  8. In the Windows Components Wizard, click Finish.

Step 2 - Upgrade the server by using the command-line tools

  1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd , and then click OK.
  2. At the command prompt, type the following line where
    c is the drive where the Front Page 2002 extensions are installedcd "c:\program files\common files\Microsoft shared\web server extensions\50\bin"
  3. Press ENTER
  4. Type the following line where "80" is the port number for your virtual server:
    owsadm.exe -o upgrade -p 80 -sp publish


    By default, your Web server's Default Web site uses port 80. If you have changed that setting or you are installing the server extensions on a different virtual server, substitute the appropriate port number for 80, or use an instance number, such as /LM/W3SVC/1, or /LM/W3SVC/3.
  5. Press ENTER.
  6. Type EXIT, and then press ENTER to quit the command prompt.
