ArcGIS Server 9.2 and higher is supported on the intel and AMD 64-bit processor families. arcGIS Server is a native 32-bit application. it is certified to run as a 32-bit application on 64-bit (x64) Microsoft Windows. instructions provided below describe how to run the Internet Information Services (IIS) and ASP. NET 2.0 in 32-Bit mode.ArcGIS Server requires IIS and ASP. NET 2.0 to run in 32-Bit mode.
Running ing IIS to run in 32-Bit mode
Run IIS in 32-Bit mode and install the 32-bit version of ASP. NET 2.0. Detailed instructions are available from Microsoft at the following link: running IIS in 32-Bit mode
IIS does not support running both 32-bit and 64-bit modes at the same time on a 64-bit version of Windows. because ArcGIS Server for the Microsoft. net Framework requires IIS and ASP. net to run in 32-Bit mode, other applications that require being run in 64-Bit mode cannot be applied to the same server. for example, running IIS/tomcat using the 64-bit isapi_redirect.dll on a 64-bit server cannot coexist on the same 64-bit server as ArcGIS Server for the Microsoft. NET framework, since the isapi_redirect.dll requires to be run in 64-Bit mode. more information on this limitation is available from Microsoft: switching between the 32-bit versions of ASP. NET 1.1 and the 64-bit version of ASP. NET 2.0
Processing ASP. NET 2.0 to run in 32-Bit mode
Click Start> Run. Type 'cmd' and click OK.
Type the following command to enable the 32-Bit mode:
Cscript % systemdrive % \ Inetpub \ adminscripts \ adsutil. vbs set w3svc/apppools/enable32bitapponwin64 1
Type the following command to install the version of ASP. NET 2.0 (32-bit) and to install the script maps at the IIS root and under:
% SystemRoot % \ Microsoft. NET \ framework \ v2.0.50727 \ aspnet_regiis.exe-I
Make sure that the status of ASP. NET version 2.0.50727 (32-bit) is set to 'allowed' in the Web Service Extension list in Internet Information Services Manager.
ArcGIS Server for Microsoft. net Framework is a native 32-bit application. it is certified to run as a 32-bit application on 64-bit (x64) Microsoft Windows. web server support is based on the Web server vendor's support of 64-bit Microsoft Windows. check with a web server vendor, if the web server is supported on 64-bit Microsoft Windows.
