В статье ниже, будут рассмотрены способы установки веб-сервера Internet Information Services (IIS) на операционной системе Microsoft Windows Server 2019. Существует два основных способа установки IIS на Windows Server.Первый способ традиционный, с помощью графического интерфейса, второй — при помощи PowerShell. Оба метода будут показаны в данной статье.
Для чего нужен IIS
IIS (Internet Information Services) — это встроенный в операционную систему Windows Server набор серверов. В этот набор входят следующие серверы:
- Web-сервер — является основным и наиболее часто используемым компонентом IIS.
- FTP-сервер — сервер для обмена файлами
- SMTP-сервер — сервер отправки почты (устанавливается как Feature, но управляется консолью IIS6)
Как правило, исходя из целевого назначения используется соответсвующий компонент или их набор IIS.
Установка IIS Web сервер при помощи PowerShell
Если на сервере не установлен графический интерфейс, необходимо автоматизировать процесс установки или Вы просто хотите использовать самый быстрый способ установки Web сервера IIS, то необходимо:
1. Выполнить вход на сервер с правами администратора
2. Запустить PoweShell от имени администратора 
3. Выполнить команду:
Install-WindowsFeature -name Web-Server -IncludeManagementToolsРезультат выполнения команды на скриншоте ниже
IIS Web сервер установлен.
Установка IIS Web сервер через графический интерфейс
1. Выполнить вход на сервер с правами администратора
2. Если автоматически не запустилась консоль Server Manager, то необходимо запустить ее вручную
3. в консоли Server Manager выбрать Manage -> Add Roles and Features
4. Если выполняется установка IIS на единичном локальном сервере, по в появившемся мастере установки ролей, необходимо нажать Next 2 раза. И на данном шаге выбрать установку Web Server (IIS). 
В появившемся всплывающем окне согласиться с установкой IIS Management Console.
5. Если установка выполняется в режиме по умолчанию, то стоит нажать 4 раза Next, а затем Install.
6.Ожидать завершения процесса установки.
В обоих способах установки IIS, после завершения установки, веб сервер запущен и работать по протоколу http, со страницей по умолчанию, как на скриншоте ниже:
Как удалить ранее установленный IIS?
В PowerShell, запущенной от имени администратора,выполнить команду:
Remove-WindowsFeature -Name Web-ServerПо завершении удаления web сервера IIS необходимо выполнить перезагрузку сервера
В статье расскажем, как установить службу Internet Information Services (IIS) на серверы с операционной системой Windows Server 2019. Инструкция подойдет и для ОС Windows Server 2016.
IIS (Internet Information Services) — набор сервисов от компании Microsoft для работы веб-сервера и других интернет служб. IIS устанавливается на сервер и работает с протоколами HTTP/HTTPS, POP3, SMTP, FTP, NNTP.
Чтобы приступить к установке, зайдите на сервер с правами администратора.
«Диспетчер серверов» (Server Manager) будет уже запущен (запускается автоматически при старте ОС) или запустите его вручную из меню «Пуск».
То же самое можно сделать через панель «Локальный сервер» (Local Server) — «Управление» (Manage).
Выберите тип установки «Установка ролей или компонентов» (Role-based or feature-based installation) и нажмите «Далее» (Next).
Выберите сервер из пула серверов (Select a server from the server pool) и отметьте имя вашего сервера. Нажмите «Далее» (Next).
Обратите внимание, что служба FTP по умолчанию не устанавливается. Если в дальнейшем вам понадобятся новые роли, то вы сможете их добавить без переустановки IIS.
При необходимости отметьте «Автоматический перезапуск конечного сервера» (Restart the destination server automatically if required), если пункт не выбран, то перезагрузите сервер самостоятельно после окончания установки.
Запустите «Диспетчер серверов» (Server Manager) из меню «Пуск» (Start).
В списке содержимого появится установленная служба IIS.
Панель «Просмотр возможностей» (Features View)
Возможности, доступные вам в службе IIS, перечислены на панели Просмотр возможностей (Features View). Отсюда управляйте возможностями IIS, настраивайте и перезапускайте. Например, настройте SSL-сертификаты.
Сразу после установки IIS по умолчанию создается пустой сайт Default Web Site.
Добавьте сайты, которые будут обслуживаться этим веб-сервером. Для этого в контекстном меню пункта «Сайты» (Sites) на вкладке «Подключения» (Connections) выберите «Добавить сайт» (Add Website).
Заполните поля формы данными о сайте и нажмите ОК.
В списке сайтов IIS появится только что добавленный.

Here we’re going to show you how to install the Internet Information Services (IIS) web server version 10.0 in Microsoft’s Windows Server 2019 operating system.
This can be done both with PowerShell or through the GUI, we’ll cover both methods here.
Install IIS With PowerShell
If you don’t have the GUI installed or just want to use the PowerShell command line interface (CLI) instead, follow these steps. This method is a lot faster than going through all of the GUI options.
- Open PowerShell with administrative privileges and run the Install-WindowsFeature cmdlet as shown below.
Install-WindowsFeature -name Web-Server -IncludeManagementTools
Here we include the management tools so that you can manage IIS on this server, as these are generally installed when using the GUI, making this PowerShell command equivalent with the GUI method below. If you do not plan on managing IIS through this server then you may prefer to not include this option.
- Once the installation has succeeded, you’ll be returned to the PowerShell prompt. At this point IIS should be running on port 80 by default with the firewall rule “World Wide Web Services (HTTP Traffic-In)” enabled in Windows firewall automatically.
- We can perform a simple test by opening up a web browser and browsing to the server that we have installed IIS on. You should see the default IIS page.
Install IIS Through GUI
If your server has the graphical user interface component installed you can also install IIS by following these steps.
- Open Server Manager, this can be found in the start menu. If it’s not there simply type “Server Manager” with the start menu open and it should be found in the search.
- Click the “Add roles and features” text.
- On the “Before you begin” window, simply click the Next button.
- On the “Select installation type” window, leave “Role-based or feature-based installation” selected and click Next.
- As we’re installing to our local machine, leave “Select a server from the server pool” with the current machine selected and click Next. Alternatively you can select another server that you are managing from here, or a VHD.
- From the “Select server roles” window, check the box next to “Web Server (IIS)”. Doing this may open up a new window advising that additional features are required, simply click the “Add Features” button to install these as well. Click Next back on the Select server roles menu once this is complete.
- We will not be installing any additional features at this stage, so simply click Next on the “Select features” window.
- Click Next on the “Web Server Role (IIS)” window after reading the information provided.
- At this point on the “Select role services” window you can install additional services for IIS if required. You don’t have to worry about this now as you can always come back and add more later, so just click Next for now to install the defaults.
- Finally on the “Confirm installation selections” window , review the items that are to be installed and click Install when you’re ready to proceed with installing the IIS web server.
No reboot should be required with a standard IIS installation, however if you remove the role a reboot will be needed.
- Once the installation has succeeded, click the close button. At this point IIS should be running on port 80 by default with the firewall rule “World Wide Web Services (HTTP Traffic-In)” enabled in Windows firewall automatically.
- We can perform a simple test by opening up a web browser and browsing to the server that we have installed IIS on. You should see the default IIS page.
As you can hopefully see, it’s quite a lot faster to use PowerShell to perform the same task.
Summary
As shown we can easily install the IIS web server in Windows Server 2019 with both the PowerShell command line or the graphical user interface.
