IIS in Windows 7 Ultimate

Question

Hi I have installed IIS in my Windows 7 OS. I am having Administrative rights to my user. I am using visual studio -2008. While adding a web reference to my project I am getting the below error message Active Directory Services cannot find the web server. A possible cause for this is an incompatibility between versions of Internet Information Server (IIS) on the client and the server. Another possible cause is that IIS is not installed on the local machine or the user identity under which you are running may not have permissions to view websites on this machine. To view websites on this machine make sure that you run Visual Studio as administrator. On Windows Vista computers with IIS installed make sure that IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility feature is enabled. I am unable to access the web service. Please give me the soluion.

Go to Add/Remove Programs--> Windows Components. There will be a lot of options available ...Go to IIS(Internet Information Services). Check all the options available by expanding the tree nodes available under the IIS options and click OK button. Then wait till Add/Remove Programs loads your selected options( It will be displaying a progress bar showing the user that it loads the selected options of the users..)..Restart the computer..That's It!!!!
