IIS does not easily support network drive mappings. Conquest 3 requires full UNC paths to be defined for access to files attached to Conquest Objects and for Icons used in the Standard Objects of the Knowledge Base. This needs to be done before migrating from Conquest II to 3.
The following images are from Windows Server 2012 R2 - IIS8.
When creating the Web Server Role for IIS, make sure that it is configured with ASP.NET and with Web Management Services as follows:
Having installed the Web Server Role and configured it, install the Microsoft .NET Framework:
•Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.5.1 or later
Note: Conquest 3
versions earlier than 3.0300 will run on 4.0 (Client and Extended) or later
•If the Windows IIS Role is configured after the .NET Framework is installed, you must register .NET by running “aspnet_regiis.exe -iru”. This is an undocumented tool provided by Microsoft for exactly this situation and is located in:
•32 bit machines - C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319
•64 bit machines - C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319
