Well, start off by checking if it is installed.

and then run **iisreset /restart** to make sure both services will run – itsho Jul 16 '13 at 09:16

In case it helps anyone else, I already had these enabled but was still getting the error. I just disabled IIS features, restarted my pc, enabled them again, then restarted again and it solved my issue. – Jerreck Dec 19 '15 at 04:54
