Hello, I need to install ASP.NET on my production WEB server. Does this
necessitate a reboot post-installation?

Thanks.

Hello,

It depends on if any files were locked during the installation and a
reboot is necessary to finish the installation.

I did not have to reboot the machine when i installed ASP.NET 2.0 on a
server recently.

I haven't had to reboot the server for installing any version of .Net
Framework (which includes ASP.NET), so I can say that it does NOT
necessitate a reboot post-installation.

However, if files needing to be updated/installed were locked somehow on
your machine (such as it was in use), then you can expect a reboot of some
sort is necessary to have the update happen.

So, I would prep your system to minimize the chances of that happening.
Temporarily disengage server-security scanners/products that may interfere
with installation, minimize the number of processes/applications active on
the machine, and do the installation during off-peak times, and you should
be fine.

We'll if the IIS Settings get configured and the installation decides to
Restart the Web Services then you might end up having a downtime. Any
comments on this. I do not remember what I had to do.
