I've been at this all day, trying to get Web Deployment setup on my server. First off, I'm running IIS7 under Windows Server 2008 Data Center 64bit (on a VPS). At first I thought I had it working, but it seems I was using the old (Windows Administrator login only) IIS6 stuff that comes alongside IIS7.
I've followed this guide perfectly, and I'm still getting errors: http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/516/configure-the-web-deployment-handler/.
This is the error I receive (as per the directions at the end of the article): http://i.imgur.com/1HC7F.png
Any help is appreciated. I've tried everything (I've verified all the basic things like LOCAL SERVICE folder access, IIS Manager permissions, the service is active, etc).
Thanks, I know someone on SO knows this stuff ^_^.

I'm trying to expose my WCF service as part of my main site URL on a server. I have it working on the server (Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard) on IIS 8.5, but can only reach it locally with localhost, or using the machine name, as follows:
http://localhost/TeeSvc/Service1.svc
http://<<machinename>>.mysite.net/TeeSvc/Service1.svc
I have an existing site set up as follows:
http://mystaging.mysite.net
I need to be able to reach the service using:
http://mystaging.mysite.net/TeeSvc/Service1.svc
I saw an article here dealing with this but it relates to an earlier version of IIS and I cannot get the cscript.exe console window to remain open long enough to issue any commands.
How can I go about this?
I was able to get this working by following the same approach in how to construct things in IIS, as outlined here:
Configure URL in IIS
My situation was further complicated by the fact that this was a migration of an older DNN site to version 9.2. There were a lot of unnecessary entries in the DNN web.config file; after I removed the httpHandlers and httpModules sections, I finally got it to work.
I must preface this post by saying that I am not an experienced developer, I am in the process of learning through trial and error and a lot of google searches so detailed (step-by-step) feedback would be greatly appreciated. I created a website, which does not use a database, using visual studio 2015 and I am attempting to host it locally on a Windows 2008 R2 server.
I installed IIS and loaded the asp.net v4.0 framework. The site works fine, produces no errors when I test it and works after being published only if the visual studio is still running.
However, when I close the Visual studio and open my browser window to http://localhost:50044 (which is the URL listed in properties menu in VS), I also tried using port :80 and nothing. When trying to add Web Site via the IIS management utility I receive the following authentication error: ”Cannot verify access path (C:\Inetpub\wwwroot).”
I checked the permissions and windows authentication is enabled with read access, and all other permissions seem to be correct. I am at a loss, I'm sure it is probably something simple that I am missing due to my lack of knowledge and experience. Any help would be appreciated.
It's sounds like you are running on IIS express which in your case stops running when you close visual studio. Normal process is create a new website in IIS and point to the folder where your web.config is. You can then hack your host file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc) so DNS works. Add an entry like "127.0.0.1 mytestwebsite.com". I hope that helps
So I figured out part of what was happening. I didn't realize that visual studio has built in IIS and was using that by default.
I ran VS as an admin, created a new project, then attempted to create a virtual directory thru VS under the project/properties/web tab. I selected local IIS and entered http://localhost/boc and it returns an error: unable to create vd. Web server http://localhost... Could not be found.
I then went in to the IIS manager and set up a virtual directory with no issues. However, when I attempt to reference it thru VS I again receive an error message.
Any ideas?
Have a website going live soon. Have installed VS2008 on my prod server (temporarily) and wish to debug code when I access the actual prod web link. In other words, I want to attached to the w3wp.exe service from w/in VS2008, then open a browser using the prod link of www.xyz.com - thus giving myself the ability to debug an actual prod call - instead of going through the \\localhost:0000.
I am on a Windows 2008R2 server and know VERY little about firewall settings for trying to access this remotely from my home PC...All past attempts have failed.ThanxJerry
If you have the studio installed on the production server just copy all the source code there, point IIS to the folder with your source code and it will be exactly like on your local machine.
If you get errors or other problems, please elaborate - "All past attempts have failed" is not really meaningful.
I have a question regarding IIS (version 7.5) and ASP.NET (.NET Framework 4) . I am trying to debug ASP.NET web application which is stored on IIS. Now, I have done this in past and everytime it worked perfectly.
But now when I try to do same, **Visual Studio 2010** always gives me error, **"unable to start debugging on the web server. the iis worker process for the launched URL is not currently running" ...** even the application I had created in past (& stored in IIS) can't debug using Visual Studio. But all applications (new & old) can be accessed if I type their path in Browser, and they work fine too.
I did search on internet about my problem and I found many posts, but almost every post talks about activating **Windows Authentication** in IIS for the application in question. But, I am using Windows 7 home premium and the IIS shipped with this version doesn't support option for Windows Authentication. Also, if this is the only reason then why my old applications were working just fine till now without this Authentication method?? I found MSDN help about this error but it is not much helpful to me. I also checked APPLICATION POOL selection in IIS and my Application (both are using V.4.XX.XXX)... I have also checked **BINDING** , which is *:80 to Default Website, that means all requests to port 80 will be directed to default website (where my all applications reside)
As a side note, I have SharePoint Server 2010 installed. Which has its own website (which I have disabled while debugging) ...
I think there is something is changed in my IIS configuration, but I cant figure out what it is. And I am sure that it has something to do with SharePoint installation (may be because of more than one website on IIS for same port ??). Because I am using IIS for first time after installing SharePoint and I am having this error.
I will really appreciate if any one has answer ...
Thanks,
Jack
UPDATE: As I suspected ... having more than one site in IIS was root cause of trouble, Once I uninstalled Sharepoint Server 2010 and its web sites from IIS, my Visual Studio 2010 debugger was able to "Auto-Attach" w3wp.exe process while debugging any application ... ( I really don't see any reason that even after disabling all other websites why still it was giving me error at first place ?? )
I know its not a solution, because I have to remove Sharepoint Server ... but at present its more important for me to work on that application then Sharepoint Server.
But I am still open for any suggestions which might help me to run both together ....
Thanks,
Jack
Check the Bug fix for this issue in the Microsoft's Connect site.
.
Is it with .NET 3.5 in Visual Studio 2010 , if yes , then check http://www.ginktage.com/2010/08/fix-for-visual-studio-2010-hangs-when-debugging-asp-net-3-5-web-application/ for information
I am currently using Visual Studio 2008 on XP Pro SP3.
Developing against http://localhost/ everything including debugging works fine.
I need a second website on my machine. IIS 5.1 only allows one website at a time so I used the JetStat XP Pro IIS Admin tool to create a second website. This runs by stopping the Default website and starting the other.
I have added the new website name into the Hosts file and mapped to 127.0.0.1.
Websites can be accessed via this address http://NewHostname/VirtualDirectoryName
Projects can be started without debugging (Web Applications & Websites).
However, when I try to debug I get an error: "Unable to start debugging on the web server. An authentication error occurred while communicating with the web server."
Integrated Authentication is enabled in IIS.
I have seen a lot of documentation with many fixes for "unable to start debugging on the web server" errors but they all seem like huge overkill for my problem, after all, debugging works fine provided I'm not doing it on this different hostname. They talk about doing things that I would do if debugging did not work at all even with http://localhost/.
Is there a place where I can just add this new hostname so that VS debugging is allowed? Do I need to change permissions somewhere? I feel like there should be a really simple solution that I'm just overlooking.
Here's a description of the problem: http://blogs.msdn.com/webdevtools/archive/2008/08/13/debugging-a-website-with-a-host-header.aspx
And here's the recommended registry workaround: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896861
Do yourself a favour and download IIS Admin .NET.
This handy little tool allows you to switch between your websites at a snip - each one will become localhost when activated, and crucially, get you out of this debug debacle.
http://www.codeplex.com/iisadmin
You do have to add the hostname to a value within the registry.. but I can't remember where.
Since you can only have one website running at a time, why don't you just have them all running as 'localhost'? This way you don't have to change any annoying registry settings but you still have your applications running in individual IIS Websites.
