![]() ![]() ![]() I have added a new web site on an existing Windows Server 2012 IIS installation. The installation already had ASP.NET configured on the existing sites. What is the right way to enable ASP.NET on the new web site? All the documentation I've found talks about using Server Manager to add the role/feature, but that's already there so that's not helpful.
