Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 or higher is required. You must obtain and install Internet Explorer 7 or higher prior to installing ArcGIS Web Applications for the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Support for 64-bit processors

ArcGIS Server 9.2 and higher is supported on the Intel and AMD 64-bit processor families. ArcGIS Web Applications is a native 32-bit application. It is certified to run as a 32-bit application on 64-bit (x64) Microsoft Windows. See Using ArcGIS Web Applications with a 64-bit processor for more information.

Microsoft Visual Studio

• The Web ADF Visual Studio 2010 integration feature requires Visual Studio 2010.
• The Web ADF Visual Web Developer Express integration feature requires Visual Web Developer 2010 Express.

See Visual Studio integration for more information.

Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS)

The following features require Microsoft IIS:

• Applications Manager

Note:

Certain IIS components are required when performing an installation on Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows Server 2008/2008 R2. If these components are not installed, the Applications Manager feature will not be visible. For installations on Windows Vista and Windows 7, see Vista/Windows 7 IIS requirements for more information. For installations on Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, see Windows Server 2008/2008 R2 IIS requirements for more information.

ASP.NET 2.0

If you have Microsoft IIS installed, ASP.NET 2.0 must be installed with Microsoft IIS. Only the ArcGIS Web Applications Manager instance will be registered as an ASP.NET 2.0 application. Other applications can use different versions of ASP.NET side by side with the ArcGIS Web Applications Manager instance. For more details, see the information on the ASP.NET IIS Registration Tool (Aspnet_regiis.exe) at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;894435.

ASP.NET 2.0 needs to be installed with IIS so that you can work with web applications and the Web ADF controls and classes, which have been designed to work with the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.

Additional software and development requirements

An OpenGL 1.2 (or higher) compliant video card is required, with at least 32 MB of video memory. However, 64 MB of video memory or higher is recommended.

Supported web servers
