Can not see "Management Service Delegation" option in IIS 7

Solution 1:

Answered it myself.

Used the Web Deployment Tool installer and clicked "Change" then added the IIS Management components.

Now I can set Web Deploy service delegations

Solution 2:

I used these steps for Windows Server 2008 R2.

• Go to Web Deploy home page. The default download at time of writing doesn't allow change/remove/repair. Keep reading.
• Click 'additional downloads', obtain the full offline msi for x86 or 64bit.
• Run the installer
• Remove the 'Management Service Delegation UI' feature
• Finish Install
• Reinstall 'Management Service Delegation UI' feature
• Close and restart Server Manager

On one server, I had to go one level higher and remove, add 'IIS Deployment Handler' before I got the Delegation icon to appear in IIS. This may have been because I didn't follow the final step.

If the Web Deploy installer does not present the 'IIS Deployment Handler' option and child components, ensure that your web role has the 'management tools' option installed.

Solution 3:

In order to even see (it wasn't there at first!) the "IIS Deployment Handler" option in WebDeploy 3.5 x64 installer I had to do the following things:

1.Right click on Web Server and select "Add Role Service"

2. Check "Management Service" and "IIS Management Scripts and Tools"

3. After that "Management Service" icon appeared

4. Then I had to launch WebDeploy 3.5 installer again and the new "IIS Deployment Handler" option appeared. I checked this option and installed it it.

5. And only after that the "Management Service Delegation" icon finally appeared
