On-prem only

Introduced in 2022.1

The Web App requires Microsoft .NET - Windows Server Hosting as a prerequisite for the web-based Admin Center, which is included within the Web App.

The Alloy Installer automatically checks for Microsoft .NET - Windows Server Hosting version 6.0.1 or later during installation. The Check Prerequisites window displays the status of this component in the Microsoft .NET - Windows Server Hosting row.

If the prerequisite is missing, the installer displays a warning message with a hyperlink to install Microsoft .NET - Windows Server Hosting 8.0.11. To install the required component, click the hyperlink, view additional information, and click Install. After the instillation completes, restart your IIS.

NOTE: The installation package for Microsoft .NET Windows Server Hosting is included with the .NET Core Hosting Bundle. For additional information about the bundle and a download link for the current .NET Core Hosting Bundle installer, see the Microsoft article The .NET Core Hosting Bundle.
