Intranet & Internet cannot find IIS 5.1 server
I have been working with this for a couple of days now with no success.
Please help!
I have installed IIS 5.1 on my Windows XP Pro workstation. My
workstation's IP address is a private IP. There is a DSL router that
forwards web server requests to port 80 of this workstation. These are
the results:
1) entering the localhost name or local IP address as the URL in a web
browser on the same workstation as the server brings up my web page
2) entering the server's localhost name or local IP address as the URL
in a web browser on a local workstation other than one running the
server generates the error "page cannot be displayed" and "cannot find
server or DNS error"
3) entering the domain name as the URL (www.domain.com) in a browser on
any workstation generates an error, either "connection refused" or "page
cannot be displayed"
IIS 5.1 is running with setup defaults. I've not changed any of the
settings. I have published a one page web named default.htm to
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot.
I'm trying to bring up a simple web site - do not want to pay an ISP to
host the site. Thought it would be straight forward to use IIS.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Domain authentication on IIS
I have a website that only allows domain users. The problem is at the
prompt. When the user just types in their name like test1 it fills in
the rest by putting www.testwebsite.com\test1 so it doesn't
authenticate because that isn't the name of my domain. The name of my
domain is jus testwebsite. So the user has to type testwebsite\test1.
How do I get it so it automatically authenticates with testwebsite and
not www.testwebsite.com so the user only types test1 not
testwebsite\test1. Thanks. Tag: strange hits on my IIS 6 server Tag: 343677
IIS6 - 400 - Bad request (Invalid URL)
Hi,
I'm getting a 400 - Bad request (invalid URL) error with IIS6 / Windows 2003

The request is passed through a ISAPI plugin to a Java servet engine.
When accessing the URL directly on the servlet engine everything works fine.

C++ Runtime Error on Server Console with W2K
Server running Windows 2000 (latest service pack), IIS and OWA.
Constantly displayed on the server console is a dialogue box regarding a C++
runtime error in inetinfo.exe.
"This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way"
If the OK button is clicked, then the dialogue box will re-appear within a
few seconds, if not sooner.
Any idea as to what may be causing this? I believe that the server is up to

Reverse Publish Problem
I have tested the following scenario on two different IIS
Servers; both are running FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions.
Problem:
When I reverse publish from the web server to my hard
drive the process hangs on graphic files, (different
graphic file each time I try and reverse publish) it seems
to quit publishing once it hangs and I have to cancel the
process. This is not an issue on other IIS web servers
running FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions, as I have tested
it using the same web sites. When I publish the same
files from my hard drive to the web server, it also works
great, it's just when I try and publish down from the web
server to my hard drive.
Any help greatly appreciated. : ) Tag: strange hits on my IIS 6 server Tag: 343667
IIS 6 + ASP problems
Hi everyone!
I have this strange thing happening with my asp pages. On our existing
production server which is a win2000 server sp3 std. edt. with IIS 5 my
asp pages are running just fine.
Now we have bought a new box where we have intalled win2003 server std.
edt. IIS 6.
I have turned on asp extensions, debugging, etc, etc.... Turned off
friendly errors in IE, etc...
My asp pages are working great, until some point where I just get the
page "Page not found". It seems that if the resulting page gets too
large, it will not process. One example is a page that returns results
from a query based on a user selection. If I narrow everything down a
bit, the page is displayed fine. If the search gets a little huge, I get
the "Page cannot be found".
I have tried the same code on different win2003 servers. Same result on
every one. The code I run is exactely the same as on our prodcution
where every thing works great.
I have even found the balance where i stop the execution with a
response.end after x records. Then i works fine. If I try to stop the
execution after x+1 records, the page fails. I know that the next record
is valid!
What the hell do I do??????

run command line in DLL from IIS6
Hi,
I have an application based on ASP and COM.
I need to change access previlige of a folder in the web server from ASP in
IIS 6 .
I have used command line cacls.exe to do that.
When in worker process mode it seems no problem(I have set the ID of the
application pool to local system).
But in iis5 isolation mode , I have to set the application protection to
low(IIS process) or there is no result. But some other function in my
application request it set to medium(pool).
I have tried using system() to call the command line in COM and wscript
shell in ASP , but both of the above request the low(IIS process).
What I can do?
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks

web folder file size restriction?
I have a web folder visible as "Public" under my default web site. I would
like people, especially me, to be able to submit files to this folder from
across the net. It works great--as long as the file is less than 1,000 K.
If I try to copy a file of over 1000K into the web folder using Windows
Explorer, the operation seems to proceed, then fails at the end and I get the
cryptic "an error occurred copying some or all of the selected files."
Anybody have this experience previously?

Authdiag utility
Hi All
Just seen an article about Microsoft Authdiag Utility to test Authenication
of IIS. I have had problems with a SBS2000 to SBS2003 upgrade and it was due
to IIS virtual directorys having wrong settings so I thought I would have a
look at this.
I wonder what the view of others of this utility. Mine came up with a few
errors and I wonder if this normal?
Here are some examples
It came up under Exchange (OWA) Test Results a lot of files that did not
have READ/EXECUTE accesse.g. xsl files for NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM
W3SVC/1/Root/Exadmin
Authtype: Anonymous
UNCPassword - an invalid value for UNCUserName or UNCPassword is causing
login to fail.
W3SVC/1/Root//private
Authtype: Anonymous
HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Are the above normal?

Can this be done with IIS or should I spin my own server?
Can someone point me in the right direction here? I'm not even sure this is
the right newsgroup to post to.
Here's what I want to do. I have a ton of clients that need to keep a
socket open back to a server (for various reasons). Should I make an IIS
Server Extension to do this or should I spin my own specialized server? To
do this IIS needs to support having clients hit the server with some request
and, from that point foward, the connection stays open (streaming-based
server/client communication vs. request/response-based server/client
communication.)
Any help would be appreciated....
Thanks very much.

IIS redirection
I'm new to IIS and I'm trying to redirect all requests to my website
that don't have www to www.mywebsite.com.
In apache I would use a .htaccess to do this, and it would look
something like this.
------------------
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mydomain\.com
RewriteRule .* http://www.mydomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
------------------
This tells apache to redirect anything that doesn't begin with
www.mydomain.com to www.mydomain.com/whateverwashere. so
mydomain.com/page.html would be redirected to
www.mydomain.com/page.html.
How can I do something like this on IIS? Tag: strange hits on my IIS 6 server Tag: 343580

iis 5.1 will not work
my iis 5.1 was working fine for couple months and then it
just stopped functioning. I am behind a router and I have
norton internet security installed as well.
I have configured my router to allow access to the web
sever as well as norton (server was working fine with
norton and router before).
I decided to uninstall and re-install iis but that did
not seem to work. Every time I try to access the iis snap-
in, it does not start, until I end the inetinfo.exe
process. The snap-in will then only function for a short
time.
I have also ran the sfc /scannow and that did not seem
to have any effect.
iisreset will stop the service but when it trys to
restart it the following error message comes up:

request in a timely fashion, <2147942452, 8007041d>

keeping open connections around indefintely?
Hi,
I'm a IIS newbie (but not a programmer newbie) so don't flame me too much.
I want to be able to have clients that I'm writing use IIS to connect and
keep a socket open until they are shut down. So, the socket connection
would be persistant and I would be able to send and recv data from my
clients through this nailed-up pipe (my own binary data, not html). I don't
want to deal with the setup and takedown time of a tcp connection for each
client communication. After I connect once, just keep it around forever for
data.
Can I do this via IIS? Would the way be to write an IIS extension?
Thanks for any suggestions or pointing in the right direction...

Asking for SMTP Server help
Hey all,
We have a Windows 2000 Server running IIS5 and we added the SMTP service to
it. We are attempting to get this box set up to relay email to the "outside
world" for a new system we have here. We have not messed with it much so
everything is pretty much default. However, whenever email is sent it
appears to be adding header type information inside the email body.
I did a quick test email and this is the body:

Management utility. I don't see anything that allows me to modify, change,
or disable this. I am not having any luck looking through the help files,
or my Google attempts. I personally have no experience with the Microsoft
IIS SMTP service so I ask for your help on this. Your input is greatly

ASP.NET Application configuration
Hi,
I have got a shared hosting package with 1&1. It seems to work well.
However, I have hit a small hosting problem which I suspect might be
something to do with IIS settings.
Basically I have 1 domain and 1 subdomain
www.mydomain.com
development.mydomain.com
In my web space I have 2 application directories "Live" and "Development"
created using Front Page Server Extensions upload from VS dotnet using Copy
Project. As I understand it, this should configure these directories under
IIS as applications.
If I set the home directory of www.mydomain.com to the root of my web space
I can access both applications succesfully as www.domain.com/Live and
www.domain.com/Development. Both applications use the web.config files and
bin directories contained within their respective directories. Neither
require web.config or a bin directory in the root.
However, if I change the home directory of www.domain.com to point to the
"Live" directory of my web space, it stops working. I believe that even
though I set the home directory to the "Live" directory the server is
looking for web.config and the bin directory in the root of my web space.
Bizzarely I can have one domain's home directoy pointing at the root and one
pointing at the "Live" folder and the one pointing to the root will work and
the other won't.
Any thoughts would be most welcome
Thanks

IIS & Windows Prompt?
I'm not that well versed in IIS, but we've run into a problem that I can't
seem to figure out.
We have a very simple site that was created in ColdFusion (I know...I
know...) that was working just fine...until...a co-worker tried to undo IIS
lockdown...as you all probably know...this caused many problems...but I
thought we had fixed them all until I noticed this page on a CF site was
being prompted by Windows for a login. It's really wierd...the only page
that gets the windows login prompt is login.cfm...none of the other .cfm
pages get the prompt. And the login.cfm page is a simple form with a
textbox...not much code at all. I tried renaming the file...no luck...tried
deleting the file and recreating it...no luck...and there are other pages
that have the same type of code (simple form) and that don't get the prompt.
So, I guess my question is...why would just one page of a particular site
cause the windows prompt? I checked the permissions and they look correct.
I know this has to do with something that happened when the co-worker tried
to undo IIS lockdown. Can anyone give any advice...I've been reading from
Google...and reading and reading...

Ways to improve performance of IIS application
I am using Win 2003 Enterprise Edition with SQL Server 2000 SP3.
An ASP web-based application with 200 users is being run on this server.
How can i watch on a regular basis to make sure the performance of the
web server for the 200 users is good and not slow.
What are the best practices, guidelines? Any books or online articles you
can share for me to read more about managing an IIS Server when running
a database application on it?
Are there Performance Monitor alerts i have to configure or i have to
manually
verify Task Manager on a regular basis and see if INETINFO.EXE, DLLHOST.EXE,
SQLSERVER.EXE are using too much resources and do IISRESET, SQL Server
services
restart, etc...?

Connection to local host refused after fresh install.
Hi
IIS has stopped working on my Windows XP pro system. I initially received
an Error 13: when trying to connect to local sites.
I uninstalled IIS and then reinstalled hoping the problem would be fixed. I
don't get that error now but when attempting to connect to a local site I
get the following message.
The connection was refused when attempting to contact 127.0.0.1
The only complication I have on my system is that Apache is also installed.
However it is configured to start manually and is not started on boot up.
Apache is working fine when manually started.
Could there be a conflict with Apache? The 2 web servers resided on this
system together well for the past 10 months.
I'd really appreciate any suggestions about when could be my problem.
