I tried to publish my VS2005 project in my windows 2008 server. But it shows error

Failed to connect to "http://serverip" to open the website  "http://serverip". To access IIS website you must install all of the following windows components.

Internet Information services
IIS 6 Metabase and  IIS6 configuration capability
ASP.Net


Visual Studio => Publish => Publishing Location=> serverip. After that, am getting that error.

But all these components were installed in server.

[EDIT - DSK]
Changed tags to reflect ASP.NET app deployment problem. This has nothing to do with VB.NET or Visual Studio.

What dotNet version is your application running?
Why do you say IIS7 when your error message indicates IIS6?
Your publish location can only be the serverip alone when you are trying to deploy to the default site on that server.

This is an VB.Net windows application and am not creating any webpages. Thats why I mentioned Visual Studio and VB.Net in my tags. The deployment problem is, publishing the VB.Net windows applicaiton in to the server.

Install the compatibility for IIS 6, Windows 2008 by default does not have the compatibility installed.

Those components were already installed in the server
