Installing IIS before feature-based applications?

Thu Dec 07, 2017 9:59 am

Is it possible to make the Installation of the Windows Server Roles (Web Server IIS) and WIndows Features before the Feature-based applications? Currently the feature.based applications seem to prevent the proper Installation of the IIS if it is installed first (Our Feature-based Installation is SQL Server Express 2017 X64)

Hello,

You could implement this by creating a new package configured to enable IIS and Windows features. Than you could add this package as a feature based prerequisite in your main package and place it above your others prerequisites in the list.

This will ensure that the package that enables IIS and Windows Features will be installed first, before the others prerequisites.
