2. Get IIS feature enabled 

3. Open inetmgr - check if "ISAPI filter and CGI restrictions" is visible, if not :

a.       32 BIT: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\framework

b.      64 BIT: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64

4. Pick both the 2.0 and 4.0 versions and open cmd in admin mode

5. CD C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\

5. aspnet_regiis -i

6. CD C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\

7. aspnet_regiis –i

8. Once the ASP.Net is installed in IIS, you will see ASP.Net 4.0 Application pools in the IIS server

10. Now hosting a web service post upgration of .net framework version and browsing on a browser give the following error:
