Symptoms

Consider the following scenario. You install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services on a computer that is running one of the following operating systems:
  • Windows 7
  • Windows Server 2008 R2
  • Windows Server 2008
  • Windows Vista
In this scenario, you receive the following warning message for the IIS Feature Requirement item on the System Configuration Check page in the SQL Server 2005 Setup program:
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) is either not installed or is disabled. IIS is required by some SQL Server features. Without IIS, some SQL Server features will not be available for installation. To install all SQL Server features, install IIS from Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel or enable the IIS service through the Control Panel if it is already installed, and then run SQL Server Setup again. For a list of features that depend on IIS, see Features Supported by Editions of SQL Server in Books Online.
