The page cannot be displayed
I put this file "hello.html" into c:\inetpub\www.root
************************************************** <html> <body> Hello Shraga </body> </html> ************************************************** If I double click on it from "My Computer" it displays "Hello Shraga". If I go to the Internet Explorer Browser and type in http://localhost/hello.html it says: ************************************************** The page cannot be displayed The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please try the following: Click the Refresh button, or try again later. If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelled correctly. To check your connection settings, click the Tools menu, and then click Internet Options. On the Connections tab, click Settings. The settings should match those provided by your local area network (LAN) administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).

Click the Help menu and then click About Internet Explorer to determine what strength security you have installed.

On the Advanced tab, scroll to the Security section and check settings for SSL 2.0, SSL 3.0, TLS 1.0, PCT 1.0. Click the Back button to try another link. Cannot find server or DNS Error Internet Explorer ************************************************** I installed the IIS from Start/Remove Programs. To the best of my knowledge I put a check in all checkboxes of all the components to be installed and all the checkboxes of each component detail. I had Windows Me on a Toshiba Satellite 1715XDCS laptop with a Celeron processor at 600Mhz. I have about 320 Meg of RAM. I have a 6 gig internal hard drive and an external 40 gig hard drive on a USB port. I upgraded with upgrade software to Windows XP professional. When I go to Internet Information Services and click on my computer Icon's + (plus) sign there is no Default Web Directory that everyone says is supposed to be there, FTP, SMPT (or whatever you call it) or any other entry or that matter. I had the Appache Web Server running as Appache2 but I disabled it from the Services Window. Must I totally remove it in the Remove Programs window so that there should not be a web services conflict? I installed Appache because I use PHP/mySQL and I could not get IIS to work then either. I would hate to remove Appache and wind up with no web server at all. Of course I rebooted again after disabling Appache. I still saw AppacheMonitor.exe on the Task Manager window. I even tried to highlight AppacheMonitor.exe and pressed the End Process button to end the process and I tried again but I still got the same message. I installed the IIS more than once. Do I have any options? Thank You Very Much

Were you the administrator when you installed IIS?
The default IIS web directory should be \InetPub\wwwroot (no . in it as you typed above) Check that the www service is running (Services, in Control Panel - Administrative Tools) If you're running a firewall you might turn it off for troubleshooting purposes.

1) I am 95% sure I was the administrator when I installed IIS.
In other words, when I go to my Windows account under User Accounts ( under Control Panel) it says Computer Administrator. I installed IIS when I was signed on to this Windows account. 2) I mistakenly put a period in my post in the path name \InetPub\wwwroot There is a directory \InetPub\wwwroot on the c: drive. But there is no entry in the IIS window (under Administrator Tools under Control Panel) for Default IIS web directory. 3) The only IIS related service that I see (under Services under Administrative Tool)is is IIS Admin. What is the name of the www service? How would I recognize it? Would it say IIS without the word Admin? 4) There is no firewall. I am a poor unemployed programmer working on my home computer. Thank You

I do not get your point. I still get the messsage "The page can not be displayed." when I try to go the link http://localhost
I still do not see any entries for Default Web Site when I click on the plus sign on the computer icon on the IIS window. Thank You.

Thank You very much. The World Wide Web Publishing service was not started. I tried to start it manually. It gave me an error:
Could not start the World Wide Web Publishing Service on local computer. Error 3: The system can not find the path specified. On the Path to executable on World Wide Web Publishing Properties it says C:\WINDOWS\System32\inetsrv\inetinfo.exe That file is there. I even added this path to the PATH ENVIRONMENT variable manually and tried to start this service and I got the same error. Thank You

I do not have a firewall. I figured it out the solution to my problem with a lot help from this forum and an additional tip from xent.com. The IIS (Which you told me was listed as World Wide Web Publishing under Services) as was not running as you suspected. The IIS Admin service did not show a Web Site under the local computer icon. So I uninstalled IIS by going to Add/Remove programs, and clicked on Add/Remove Windows Components. I then UNchecked the check box next to IIS (I got that tip from xent.com. I thank them.) and pressed Next to uninstall. I then rechecked the box and reinstalled (I needed the Windows XP cd for this). The Web Site directory showed up, the World Wide Web Publishing Service's status listed as started and a simple ASP page listed. (I had to add a > after </html to make http://localhost/index.asp show the Hello message properly.
Thank You Very Much everybody! Last edited by prismstone : November 19th, 2003 at 01:54 PM.
