I have Deployed my Asp.net web application on IIS 7.0 on localMachine(Server) and it is working fine there.
But when i try to access it from other machine in LAN, It gives me error that, 'Internet Explorer Can Not find this Page.'
I am accessing it on terminals using server name address and also tried using IP address.
Even I have Shared the Application Folder in network.
Check the Windows Firewall on your Vista PC. You need to let TCP port 80 through.
Make sure that you enable the firewall and bind to IP addresses other than localhost.
You don't need to and should not share the application folder.
This is a security risk as people on the network will be able to access the source code of the application. Also, it won't help with the problems you're having because a network share is not accessed over HTTP and so will never hit IIS and your web application. So you can turn off sharing for the folder and be safe in the knowledge that this isn't the issue.
Next, check your windows firewall and make sure incomming web trafic is allowed ("http" or "port 80").
Next I would have a look at the host headers that the site is running on.
Then maybe update your question with more detail.

You may also want to ensure that IIS is listening on the correct IP Address. This problem can occur if you switch from a LAN connection to a wireless connection (for example when taking a work laptop home).
To Check this, open inetmgr and right-click on the 'Default Web Site' node. Verify that the IP Address entry is set to the current IP of your machine.

Good day to all,
I am trying to create my website locally, and perhaps access the website through my phone from the localhost. Forgive me I am just a beginner.
So I used ipconfig -all to find my IPV4 address and it was e.g
192.168.1.102
And on the ASP.net webapplication I ran, the address was:
https://localhost:44337
Hence, I was trying to access this Web Application of mine created on my PC, to be accessed on my phone. On my phone, I entered the address:
192.168.1.102:44337
I went into my firewall setting to add a new rule for inbound connection to allow all ports to be connected as well. But it still don't work. Both my PC and phone is connected to the same wifi.
Does anyone know the fix? Thank you in advance.
You might have to configure an IIS server. This tool comes default in Windows (professional?), and there's lots of good resources on how to do this, all of which do a better job of explaining the process than I could do.
Essentially, you will need to:
Publish your site (Done through visual studio or cli)
Enable and configure your IIS
Create a new website in the IIS manager and point it towards the output of your web app publish
After opening the neccessary firewall ports, check to see in which IP address your web application is running. I am assuming you are using some sort of HTTP webserver software like IIS(windows) or Apache(Linux). In IIS to do that you must go to your site bindings and where it says "IP Address", select "All Unassigned" (NOT localhost or 127.0.0.1)so that the web application runs in all network adapters and IP addresses.
See full IIS documentation here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/get-started/getting-started-with-iis/getting-started-with-the-iis-manager-in-iis-7-and-iis-8
Follow the guide: https://medium.com/#manujsdeveloper/debug-a-website-local-or-remote-hosted-on-an-android-mobile-device-ff2c43527be1
You will need to set your phone in developer mode and get the OEM USB driver specific for your phone. and get a ADB running on your computer
I suggest supplement your knowledge with with links below, as some things are left out in the above guide and vice versa:

I'm running a ASP.NET on my pc and I would like to access to that app from another pc on the same network. I've tried to reach the app writing the URI of my pc on the network followed by the port number as below:
"192.168.X.X:49223/"
But it shows me an 400 error saying that it's an invalid hostname...
Is there something to do with my windows firewall or in IIS to allow access from another PC ?
Thanks for your help.
You may need to an exception in Windows Firewall.
Control Panel > Windows Firewall > Advanced Settings > Inbound/Outbound rules.
Add a new rule to both, specifying your port number and a generic name to identify its purpose.
Install IIS server on your machine, then deploy your application on that IIS server.
Refer this for Deployment assistance
To run the application on IIS instead of ASP.Net dev server you need to
Right click on solution in VS
Click on Start Options..
In Server section, Select "Use Custom Server" and then provide the URL of the application you have added earlier on IIS
Then you can easily access your website from any other machine on the same network.
Is it hosted in iis, or are you running it through Visual Studio. The funny port number (49223) tells me it's the latter.
When you run a VS project, the dev server is designd to only allow local conconnections. If you connect from a network it gets blocked by design. Their is no config around it.
What I do as a hack is run a reverse proxy like Nginx. It's a free download. Run it on your dev machine. You can tell it to listen on a port (eg 88) and then redirect tge traffic to port 49223. Give your mate the same url as before but replace the port with 88
Nb make sure your port 88 is open as per codemans answer
An example of the nginx config would be https://gist.github.com/ekinertac/5524389
This then tricks VS into thinking it came from your local machine.
I installed on my server, a Bug tracker which is accessible through port 3000 (http://myserver:3000).
Every thing is ok on my server, i can access to my web application any time, but in my job's computer, i cannot even connect to this application and no other web application which run on different port other than 80.
I have added a role on the windows Firewall settings by letting connection to and from port 3000. But same result.
If some one have a solution to this, i'll be thankful.
Best Regards
Is it possible that your work network is blocking your home machine. Can you ping your home machine or access it with its ip address? When you type
http://myserver:3000
are you doing this from the local intranet? If you have your bug server on your home machine then you won't be able to access
http://myserver:3000
from your work machine without a fully qualified domain nae or ip address?
If the above answers are all resolved then whenever I have such difficulties on windows, I do the following. If you don't have admin rights you might not be able to do this.
temporarily disable all firewall/antivirus programs.
Start web server listening on port 80 (on your home machine)
Access from a different machine if this works then
Start web server on 3000
Access from a different machine.
If it works then it is a matter of finding whether the problem was that the web request was being blocked by the firewall or antivirus. In your case it appears it might be the antivirus. To confirm disable all antivirus for a moment.
Make sure you turn your antivirus/firewall back on once the problem is diagnosed!
Recenly a network card was intalled on the server so that I can have a new IP address for my application.
Whend deploying the application on the server using IIS (using the "add site" feature) and then test the site , the site works perfectly fine from withtin the server
but when I try to access it from outside the server I get the message saying that the site is not reachable
any reason why this is happening ?
Sounds like a firewall issue. First make sure the windows firewall isn't blocking IIS. Also make sure your IT team has setup that IP address as an external server.
A few other questions about your server
1) What type of services are you hosting and is it on the standard ports? (Exhaustive list of ports on Wikipedia)
2) What version of IIS are you using?
3) Do you have a firewall/load balancer/etc between your server and the web?
I have application..its runnning on my localhost.. i need one more machine to access that application.. but when in tht link i type my IP address instead of localhost.. it showing cannot find server.. can you plz tell me steps what i need to do in orderr to access appplication to other machine.. as such there is no UAT server as of now...
First off, make sure your firewall allows access through port 80.
Then, check if your IIS allows access from outside IP's.
I can help more if you provide this:
Your OS (XP, Windows 7, etc)
the local link to your app. Is there a port number needed to access the app?
LaterEdit: Ok, then you need to do this:
Now, your app will be served by IIS on port 80 (default). Check your firewall to allow traffic through this port.
If you IIS is set for another port, then use that one.
Checking the port in IIS:
I'm going to assume that you are running the application from Visual studio which allows the localhost to run.
In order for your application to be available to other machines on the network, you have to ensure that IIS is installed on your development machine and then a website is set up for that application as well.
The application existing in IIS is what will make it accessible across your network.
