For reasons of performance and scalability, it was necessary to move IIS to a server other than the BizTalk Server. The webservice to be hosted on IIS was responsible for sending messages to msmq. In that way a decoupled architecture was create with BizTalk reading from msmq.

The server was already installed with Windows Server 2012R2, IIS 8.5 and .Net Framework 4.5. What I needed to do, is configure the Windows Server roles and features. Start the Server Management. Choose add roles and features.

Windows Server roles:

  • Application Server
    • .Net Framework 4.5
    • Distributed Transactions
      • All except WS-Atomic Transactions
    • TCP Port Sharing

      • TCP Activation
  • File and Storage Services
    • Storage Services

        • All except Http Redirection and WebDav Publishing

Note: if you fail to install the Windows role for Http Activation, you might receive HTTP Error 404.3 – Not Found. The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map.
