In Windows Server 2012 R2, I've installed the IIS "Tracing" module. However when I start IIS Manager, I don't see the Failed Request Tracing option anywhere, in any pane or properties window of any object.

What do I need to do to convince IIS that I really do want to use Request Tracing??

  • On the taskbar, click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Server Manager.
  • In the Server Manager hierarchy pane, expand Roles, and then click Web Server (IIS).
  • In the Web Server (IIS) pane, scroll to the Role Services section, and then click Add Role Services.
  • On the Select Role Services page of the Add Role Services Wizard, select Tracing, and then click Next.

The applet to create FRT rules is in inetmgr.msc. Open the msc as admin, expand your default website, and select your site/applicaiton. an icon for Failed Request Tracking should appear in the features tab.

if it does not, have you rebooted since installing the module? can you confirm FailedRequestsTracingModule displays in inetmgr -> modules? are you sure its selected in Appwiz.cpl -> Add Remove windows Features?
