SYMPTOM:
"MISSING Feature: Internet Information Services\World Wide Web Services\Security\Windows Authentication" error message appears while no Windows Authentication component contained in IIS when installing Strategy 9.3.1.
CAUSE:
Not all Windows OS come with the 'Windows Authentication' component in IIS. Take Windows 7 as an example, 'Windows Authentication' component in Windows 7 Home Premium Edition or Windows 7 Home Basic and Starter Editions is unavailable.
Refer to the following Microsoft technical note for detailed information: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753473.aspx
ACTION:
Users should use another Windows OS where 'Windows Authentication' component in IIS is available.
There is another way to work around this. When installing Strategy products, users can uncheck Strategy Web Server (ASP.NET) which requires the IIS as web server but check Strategy Web Server (JSP) which can use other Web servers.
