FTP Error 530 User cannot login - iis-7

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.

How to configure IIS 7 for localhost website?

I am new in Asp.Net
I have enabled features of IIS 7 on my windows system and able to see IIS manager.
I created an application but build/run application through visual studio it goes to browser and run the application with different port number. When i stop build/run application through visual studio and again i refresh browser application could not run.
I want to run application without visual studio. How to do this.
It gives this : http://localhost:9864/
To configure IIS with a new website follow these instructions:
Open IIS manager, right click Sites (At the right menu) and click Add Website
Give the site a Site Name, The physical path on your machine, and a Host Name
There are some conventions as for what website physical path to choose you can read about it in this SO question
In Windows Explorer go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and Edit the hosts file
Add this line at the end of the file:
127.0.0.1 your-chosen-host-name-from-iis-ie-localhost.testsite.com
And save the file
Thats about it. You can open your browser and browse the Host Name you chosen for your website or in IIS right click your site and click Manage Website - Browse
Important note
If you wish to use the same address as your VS uses (http://localhost:9864/) then on step 2 leave the Host Name textbox blank and instead change the Port textbox to your desired port (9864). In this case you can also ignore step 3.
As a site note:
If you installed IIS on your machine after the VS installation you might get some conflicts. You might be able by this stage to browse to static content as html but not .NET resources like aspx files. If by browsing to .NET files you get a message saying The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration you can solve it with this SO question

Is it good /Fine to connect website on iis as administrator?

Is it good /Fine to connect website on iis as administrator user and not as regular user given by host company?
I need this to download pdf(rotative) for example..
and i notice that it is obligatory(for default application pool in basic setting to connect as administrator) even to enable the website lunch and work..
so i need to know if connecting as administrator - (in advance setting->identity) or in basic setting - is a problem or not fine for websites and is it true that if:
The web application runs as admin, then anyone who wants to run a known exploit (either in IIS, ASP.NET, Rotativa or your application code), will be able to do so and have access to the entire machine

Site migration - new site not seeing default.aspx

So I was migrating a website from an older sql box to our new SS 2008 r2. I copied the files into the correct folder. turned off the service in IIS on the old box. created a new website on the new box in IIS. The binding's are correct. The site worked on the old box. It's running in the ASP 4.0 app pool. (I also tried letting it have it's own. no change.) The Domain users have rights to the box. So does the impersonated service account. which is also a memeber of IIS_users. I can ping the server. nsLookup shows the right IP address. But when I try to browse to it, whether through IE, or even by clicking the link on the far right of the window in IIS7, "Browse Web Site", which has the correct ip, name, port 80..., I get the error
Under Construction
The site you are trying to view does not currently have a default page. It may be in the process of being upgraded and configured.
Except that I do have a Default.aspx page in there, and it ran fine on the old server. I've got two other sites on this server, neither gave me any problems when I moved them. Other than the ip they're listening for, they're set up identically.
Any thoughts on what might be wrong, or what further steps I can take to trouble shoot?
Just making sure that you checked your IIS Default Document settings.
Open IIS Manager, expand the left menu and select your web app, open Default Document. Make sure that list contains the name of your default doc and that your default doc is in the root of your application.
So... Turns out we were missing an IP entry in our NIC on the virtual server... as soon as we entered it on the host, everything worked just fine. Anyone who wants details can contact me.

How to allow access to internal website in IIS7

I developed my first website for a simple internal application using Webmatrix in a Windows 2008 Server R2 machine.
I'm able to open the site with a browser in the same machine as it is running, but cannot open it from any other machine in the network. I cannot open the default IIS7 website either.
The error is 401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.
This is what I have done so far, without any changes in the results:
Changed the port of my site to 80, and the default to 8080
Where it lists all the sites (so far just the default and mine), right-clicked on my site, selected Edit Permissions, selected the Security tab, and verified that Everyone has Allow permissions for everything
Where it lists all the sites (so far just the default and mine), right-clicked on my site, selected Edit Permissions, selected the Security tab, and added Domain Users with Read & execute, List folder contents and Read permissions.
BTW, this fellow seem to have the same problem and there were no answers: How to allow users from other computers to connect to my IIS7 website?
I found the answer in Enabling Non Localhost access to WebMatrix

IIS 7 Welcome Page not showing

O/S: Windows 7 ,Home Premium
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
Progress:
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...
