The following Modules need to be installed:

Feature Delegation

The IIS feature delegations of Windows Authentication, Form Authentication and Anonymous Authentication must be set to Read/Write.

    • .NET CLR Version: 4.0

    • Managed Pipeline Mode: Integrated

  • ASP.NET Core applications and JavaScript web applications

    • No Managed Code

  • Advanced Settings

    • Identity should be set to the actual eRecruiter application user that was created in an earlier step of the installation manual.

    • Idle Time-out (minutes): 360

    • All options need to be disabled.

It is recommended to delete all other application pools that are not used for security and performance reasons.
