Note! You should install .NET framework after IIS installation. If you had .NET Framework installed before IIS, you need to reinstall .NET framework!

Download and install .Net Framework 4.0.

Note! If you plan to use the integration with Box (see parameters EnableDownloadToBox, EnableUploadFromBox, BoxClientId, BoxClientSecret), necessarily verify whether the Update KB2468871 to .NET Framework 4 is installed, and if not, install it on the server with HTTP Commander (update details info: KB2468871).

• Place HTTP Commander code on a web server:
  • Open IIS server's root folder in Windows Explorer (by default it is c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\)
  • Extract the HTTP Commander zip archive to a new HTCOMNET folder inside the root folder. You can use any name for the folder or place it not in the root. In this manual we use such placement and name as default.

    In the HTCOMNET properties dialog box, open "Directory" tab and click Create button next to Application name field.
