Unfortunately, I did not remove IIS before installing the Essentials role, and have since had many user/setting changes before realizing that the IIS side was not working correctly. So now, IIS does not work for the website that existed before the install and all the web interface pieces for Essentials also do not work. I tried to move the old website to port 88, rather than 80, but IIS would not start for the essentials tools.
Is there any way to re-establish IIS as the Essentials role would like? I don't really want to reinstall everything, if I can avoid that. Sadly, we only have the one server, so it was our domain server, file server, and web server. This is for a small non-profit. We recently acquired licensing for Office 365 for Non-Profits and I installed the server essentials role on our Server 2012 R2 Standard and attached it to Office 365. Mostly everything was working, except for IIS.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
