About This Image

Internet Information Services (IIS) for Windows® Server is a flexible, secure and manageable Web server for hosting anything on the Web.

How to use this image?

Create a Dockerfile with your website

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore/iis

RUN powershell -NoProfile -Command Remove-Item -Recurse C:\inetpub\wwwroot\*

WORKDIR /inetpub/wwwroot

COPY content/ .

You can then build and run the Docker image:

$ docker build -t iis-site .
$ docker run -d -p 8000:80 --name my-running-site iis-site

There is no need to specify an ENTRYPOINT in your Dockerfile since the microsoft/iis base image already includes an entrypoint application that monitors the status of the IIS World Wide Web Publishing Service (W3SVC).

Verify in the browser

With the current release, you can't use http://localhost to browse your site from the container host. This is because of a known behavior in WinNAT, and will be resolved in future. Until that is addressed, you need to use the IP address of the container.

Once the container starts, you'll need to finds its IP address so that you can connect to your running container from a browser. You use the docker inspect command to do that:

docker inspect -f "{{ .NetworkSettings.Networks.nat.IPAddress }}" my-running-site

You will see an output similar to this:

172.28.103.186

You can connect the running container using the IP address and configured port, http://172.28.103.186:8000 in the example shown.

In addition to static content, IIS can run other workloads including but not limited to ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core, NodeJS, PHP, and Apache Tomcat.
