ASP.NET 3.5 is based on the ASP.NET 2.0 core fundamental.
Therefore, there is no new application type(for ASP.NET 3.5) in IIS, still use the 2.0 one. And when you developing ASP.NET 3.5 application(which use
those 3.5 specific features such as AJAX or LINQ), VS 2008 will help you add the proper assemblies reference in project and those assemblies are the
most imporant things to help you deal with 3.5 stuffs. And when deploy to IIS, you still use 2.0 version tab to configure it.
IIS is showing App Pool for my site but can not see if it is 3.5 or 2.0 (It is 2.0 because i am excuting a site that exibit the same error before i updated to 3.5)
I am using visual web developer 2008 express. and to transfer to the server i am using the copy wesite (FTP)
I am still working on it trying to get it working. but what I am wondering, Do I have to add any libraries to the 3.5 to run AJAX and AJAX toolkit code?
Man I have been trying to setup my server properly for three days. Made lots of progress but I am working on this issue now.

Configuring Server to run ASP.NET 3.5 instead of 2.0
Dec 14, 2007 10:30 PM|LINK
Hello,
Finally I got my dedicated server. Well it is virtual private server which is simmilar. The server is running windows 2003 server.
Anyway, I installed .NET 3.5 successfully and it showed in add remove program. Went to the IIS 6.0 and noticed the following:
1. web service extension list ASP.NET 1 and 2 and each is pointing to .dll file (ASP.NET pointing to aspnet_isapi.dell).
2. under website in the properties>home directory>configure under application extension aspx is pointing to asp_isapi.dll.
3. when i get an error trying to run the .NET 3.5 site it report that it is still running 2.0
My questions is:
Is there one dll file that I can point to? it seems there is more to configuring 3.5. So how can I configure it?
Thanks in advance for any reply

Are you executing your pages from inside an app pool that uses 3.5?
Hope that helped.

In regard to your question about the App pool
IIS is showing App Pool for my site but can not see if it is 3.5 or 2.0 (It is 2.0 because i am excuting a site that exibit the same error before i updated to 3.5)
I am using visual web developer 2008 express. and to transfer to the server i am using the copy wesite (FTP)
