How can I shutdown a website in IIS 7?
I have stopped the website, but when I type the address in the address bar the website shows up. Under IIS if I browse the website it says "Webpage not found". I noticed that if I put https instead of http then the site shows up even though it shows as stopped website under IIS. How do I resolve this? Please advise.
Try to stop application pool instead

I am trying to run my application in visual studio 2013. I have created a virtual directory and also set the start up page.
But whenever I try to debug the application, I am being redirected to my IPv4 address and I am shown the IIS 7 welcome page.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Please help.
The issue was with my internet LAN settings.
I am now able to debug the application.
I have one problem, when I go to my IE and I write localhost the IE show this message "Internet Explorer can't show the web page". one week ago I requested localhost and this message did not appeared. only show the IIS 7 image (work good).
I reinstall the IIS and nothing.
Open your IIS manager and make sure that the Default Web Site under the Sites folder, and DefaultAppPool under Application Pools are started.

I have just installed IIS manager Express from Web platform installer and Turned on the IIS7 feature from the Program Feature in control panel.
Q) I was playing with IIS Manager (inetmgr) I was able to view the Welcome page on typing localhost but after adding some sites and deleting them I'm unable to see any site hosted on IIS and even can't see Welcome page of IIS
Note: I was assuming IIS switched off ,but its running
Services.msc from start menu > run

After trying Update2 from "Andrei Drynov" here is the sanpshot
Is there page iistart.html in C:\inetpub\wwwroot?
Is the default web site there and running?
UPDATE:
You can you can uninstall and then install again IIS components like Default document, if you really want that welcome page:
UPDATE 2:
I was able to reproduce your issue by creating another web site with site1.com as a host name in Site Binding and removing the default web site. Remove the host name there and you will be able to open the welcome page again:
Is the default IIS website running? that means in the IIS can be on, but the website can still be stopped...try restarting the website...and then try --- right click on website>Manage Website>Browse...
If you navigate to http://www.website.com/ you will see the IIS7 welcome screen.
If you navigate to http://www.website.com/?abcd123 (or any random querystring) you will see the correct site.
If you navigate to http://www.website.com/default.asp (which is also set as the default document) you will see the correct site.
Can anyone explain to me why this is happening?
What is even more strange is that if I stop the web publishing service on the server, http://www.website.com/ still responds with the IIS7 welcome screen, but http://www.website.com/?randomquerystring gets a request timeout error (as it should).
I have check and rechecked:
Default document (default.asp only)
Custom error pages (disabled)
Output caching (turned off)
Cleared local browser cache
Tried the various URLs on multiple machines in 3 different locations and via proxify.com
The site is running in its own AppPool in integrated mode, .Net 2.0.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Problem has been fixed.
This was due to a 'corrupted cache store' on the firewall of my hosting company. It was not an IIS issue.
Rory , did you restart your application pool as well as the site. please restart once and also check for the authentication .
I am trying to FTP to a new FTP site I setup with IIS 7.0 for the Windows Server Web (64-bit) edition. But I get the above error when I try to login to this site. But I can login to my other FTP sites.
Also, when I select this website from IIS Manager, the FTP section does not display in the middle section although it does display in Action panel. And I cannot successfully login to this FTP site either.
I have checked and I have Log on locally selected. I do not have allow only anonymous connections. I have Access this computer from the network selected.
I restarted my IIS and FTP services also.
The one different thing I noticed about this website in IIS different from the other site that has FTP working is that this one there are 3 virtual directories beneath the site. And that when I click on any one of these 3, then the FTP strip does appear in the center pane. Make sense?
How can I debug cause of this error? Any SW tools I can use?
I figured out this problem. Problem was I had two instances of IIS: 6 and 7. I was modifying the wrong instance.
