For testing/learning purposes I've been trying to publish a website(build in asp.net) in IIS on windows 10. I enabled everything, made everything as saw on Microsoft tutorials, and youtube tutorials, yet, it seems its not working.
I try to access it thru the Site name I specified, and IP. but its not working.
this is the error keep getting
"This site can’t be reached
projectmms.com’s server DNS address could not be found."
NOTE: projectmms.com is the name/url I specified for the website.
Why is this error keep showing up? I made everything as seen in those tutorials.
and have checked many answers here from other posts, followed the same suggestion and nothing is working. Any suggestion?
EDIT:
after made what few of you requested, this is what I get. This is not my asp.net website.
even tried projectmms.com/default.aspx , it shows that it didn't found the page.
any help?
This is what shows now
You need to add projectmms.com in your hosts file.
add this in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\host
projectmms.com Your_Server_IP_Address
That will work locally.
You need to add projectmms.com domain to your host file (windows\system32\drivers\etc\host) and forward to your local IP (127.0.0.1).
This should be a comment, not a reply as you give us little to no info.(but I need 50 rep in order to do so)
Is the IIS in your machine or a remote one.
Did you add the name in the DNS server or the HOSTS file.
Do you reach the machine by ping (hostname/ip)?
Did you start the ISS service?
P.S.Ask if you don't understand any of the above points.
Using IIS Express you can only local host access, you have come to enable IIS on Windows resources?

I've created a site using ASP.Net MVC that is meant to be stored on a local machine at my place of work. The intention is to have the site stored on this machine, but then accessible by all the other machines within this building.
I've followed Microsoft's tutorial as well as Code Project's tutorial, but I am not having very much luck. The binding is just the localhost, port 80, with * for the IP address. The URL is localhost/GrantTracker.
I've opened the ports within the firewall, checked the permissions on the directory (which is just within wwwroot), tried having the site take the place of the default IIS site (as Microsoft tutorial has you do) and tried having the site stand on its own with its own port (per Code Projects tutorial).
On the host machine I am receiving the standard "This site can't be reached, localhost refused to connect" which feels like either a port or permissions problem. I must be missing a step, but I can't seem to find what it would be. I am new to hosting sites through IIS so forgive me if I am just missing something basic.
I find it a bit strange too because my project uses Windows Authentication and when the site is first visited it performs that initial check with the user, authenticates, but then throws me the error.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
start simple,
create a simple html page, create an IIS application for it, on port 80.
Check and make sure you can see that page from another computer using the internal IP address of the the host machine so something like:
http:\\192.168.0.3\hostapp\test.html .
You can see the proper URL by running it from IIS, this will give you the entire URL you need, with localhost then just replace localhost with the IP address of the host machine to see it on other machines.
Do this in the original IIS folder so you don't encounter any folder permission issues. If you choose another folder you'll have to give access to the Network Service user ( i think, can't remember now, but there is a specific user that needs access to the folder where the website is deployed )
if you can see the page then deploy a proper website and do the same thing. Make sure the app pool is created correctly and it's up and running, then access it again on other computers and it should work.
Port 80 should be open by default so that should not be an issue.
We suddenly started seeing this "Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel" error.
Our website does a simple POST to another server to a HTTPS URL
This suddenly stopped working
Nothing has changed (Windows Updates, our updates, server settings) to cause suspicion. That we know of, or can remember.
We can navigate to the posted URL just fine.
We have other websites that also do this same POST to that same server and they continue to work. Everything is using TLS 1.0 and the target server has not changed anything recently. Nobody has turned off TLS 1.0 on either side.
This issue is discussed in many other stackoverflow postings, so to research systematically we made a clone of the website on the same server. Just copied its code (compiled code folders) and set up another virtual host in the same IIS.
The POST operation from the clone works! Same server, same code, same IIS. So we can't even reproduce it on the exact same setup. The copy is working but the original is throwing this error.
So finally the question:
Does the fact that the copied website can POST successfully give anybody any insight into what may have happened?
Could some IIS settings on the original site been changed? The only thing different is they are two virtual hosts on the same server.
Windows Server 2012R2, IIS 8.5, ASP.NET/C#.
I found the solution here:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/9dfb4d09-8096-40c9-ac75-1e23f75417c9/frequent-event-id-36888-windows-schannel-errors-in-the-event-viewer?forum=W8ITProPreRel
The causes can be many, apparently, even Windows updates. Still seems odd that it would happen (consistently) on one website and not on its clone (also consistently).
The specific steps to fix were:
In Group Policy Editor (run: gpedit.msc), went to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Distributed COM > Application Compatibility and enabled "allow local activation security check exemptions"
I yesterday received a zip file containing an old asp site from 2005. Its came in a folder called ivx.
I've unzipped ivx to c:\inetpub\wwwroot and then created an application in IIS called ivxapp and pointed it to c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ivx. Now when I type http://localhost/ivxapp, I am able to access the index page.
My problem is, whoever designed that site, designed it when IIS5 or IIS6 was around. He's used paths like more... which leads to http://localhost/new_posts.asp and not http://localhost/imagevertex/new_posts.asp
The whole site is some 21000 lines of code and contains many many references like this. Then comes the problem with <!--#include virtual = "/common/adminverify.asp" -->
Instead of having to manually edit the entire code, do you know a way to get things going?
This site worked perfectly well on a production server. Right now it's on my local machine on Windows 7 64 home premium.
Yes, you need to give this site a root-URL of its own, and not run it in a subdirectory of your localhost.
This is more of a web-administration question, but what you need to do is either run it under "localhost" directly, or add a domain-name to your network to run this site under.
The easiest for you right now is probably the first option.
If you aren't running a different site under localhost already:
Go to the IIS manager and click the 'localhost' site. On the right side of the IIS interface you can change the basic settings. Point the physical path to the ivx directory. You can reach the site directly on http://localhost.
If you are already running a site under localhost you need to keep:
Now, if you -are- already running a site on your localhost, the second easiest option is to run the ivx site under localhost, but on a different port. To accomplish that, click on the current ivx site in IIS, change the path in the same way as descibed above, and after that click on "bindings" in IIS, and change the PORT for the ivx site to something other than 80, for example 81.
The ivx site will then run on http://localhost:81, your current localhost will still run on http://localhost.
The hard way: adding a host to your network or PC:
The last option is to add a new hostname for the site to your network. You can add an A-record in your DNS for the ip-address of your server or add a host name to your HOSTS file in Windows on your server ("server" in the sense of the machine that runs the site, which can also be your local machine)
You can add a made-up name to the ip-address of the server, and in IIS' bindings add that name under "host name". this way you can run two different sites on the same machine, the "host name" seeting in IIS will make sure that calls to that specific hostname will reach the correct site. Adding it to the DNS of your network, or the HOST file in Windows will make sure the name is resolved to the correct machine (your webserver).
This last option is a little tricky of you've never done something like this before, but the first option works just as well.
Good luck!

I am trying to run a website in IIS7 for testing purposes. I can coonnect to it from my local pc typing http://localhost/Webpage1/Default.aspx (or http://localhost to open the default IIS starting page), but i can't connect to it from other computers.
In other similar topics suggestions was to change hosts file in c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc, but something is not working for me.
Can you please tell me what exactly should i write there and how to connect, if my IP address is 80.233.186.188?
Thanks, Walt
It sounds like you developed this using WebMatrix. That installs IIS 7 Express, instead of IIS 7. It happened to me too, and I solved the problem by following the steps here: http://blog.alirobertson.com/post/11139712138/enabling-non-localhost-access-to-webmatrix
I have published ASP.NET web site, using IIS7 on Win7. I can access this web site on my localhost, but it is inaccessable from other computers via internet. I have tried to disable firewall and anti-virus program, but with no success.
Does anyone know what may be causing this problem?
It works fine if I publish it on winXP.
Try checking out your router settings for port 80 forwarding;
Check out information about your internet provider as well;
There are providers that block port 80 outgoing traffic.
Try checking to see if the website is actually bound to 127.0.0.1. If it is, it would work for you but no one else.
Try to hit the website from a different computer on the internal network. If you can't hit it internally, then it is an issue with the local configuration on the webserver. If you can hit it internally, but can't hit it externally, then there is some kind of routing issue from the outside.
Its likely a routing issue from the outside, so think about these steps:
External DNS
Proper NAT/Firewall settings
Try using telnet to connect to the website and see if you get a response
Use tracert from the outside to see where the traffic is failing (if its failing)
Check the security settings on the deployed folder and check "Everyone" has read access. If you've not deployed under wwwroot they may not
