Add ASP.NET 2.0 as an allowed Web Service Extension, using the following steps:

1  In IIS Manager, under Web Service Extensions, click on the link to "Add a new web service extension"

2. Click the ADD botton, and browse to the following file:

        C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll

3. Continue with the process to add the extension.

4. If this directory/file doesn't exist, then ASP.net 2.0 needs to be installed or reinstalled.

5. Check in the packages manually from Control Center.

ASP.NET 2.0 is installed on the system, but is not listed or "allowed" as a web service extension at the time installation.
