[RESOLVED] Asp.net vb & iis .net 2

[max_carpenter]

Good Morning Everyone,

I am getting very annoyed at the fact that I can't get this very simple two page asp.net site up and running. All it is, is a small survey page and a completion page. No masters nothing linking outside the project.

I have doen asp.net sites before but why I can't get this one working I don't know.

Here is the link: http://surveys.dhcd.co.uk

I have turned on Directory Browsing and turned of default Document so you can see whats in there.

This Is what I get even when Directory Browsing and clicking on the page to open:

The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please try the following:

•Make sure that the Web site address displayed in the address bar of your browser is spelled and formatted correctly.
•If you reached this page by clicking a link, contact the Web site administrator to alert them that the link is incorrectly formatted.
•Click the Back button to try another link.
HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Technical Information (for support personnel)

•Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 404.
•Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled Web Site Setup, Common Administrative Tasks, and About Custom Error Messages.

Any settings you need to see from IIS let me know and I will grab them.

Hey,

OK, I tried to visit the link that you posted, but there is nothing there.

As for the problem that you are having, I have a couple questions....

1) What is the version of .Net that you are using?
2) Have you configured the Virtual Directory in IIS to use this version?
3) What are the names of the files that you are trying to browse? If these are anything other than Default.aspx, then by default IIS, will not display them until to browse to them directly, i.e. http://surveys.dhcd.co.uk/MyPage.aspx, you can change this setting within IIS though to include other default pages.

I don't think that subdomain has been set up properly. I can't ping it so dhcd.co.uk isn't acknowledging its existence. When I go there, I get the usual Firefox 'server not found' message.

[gep13]

Yip, that is what I got as well.

The top level domain seems to be working though.

Gary

[max_carpenter]

Hmm Thats intresting because I set up the DNS for that subdomain and works find internally but it doesn't seem to be getting out which is odd. I had the same problem when I put it in a subfolder and declared a new application.

I am using .Net 2 and I have set the ASP.NET Tab in IIS to the .Net 2.xx.xxx

Ok I have put it on the main domain so you can now access it via:

http://dhcd.co.uk/Surveys

Directory Browsing is turned on so go there and you will see all the files but none of the aspx files work (there are only two and the complete.aspx just contains text and an image no coding.

:-( Probably a setting in IIS but I can't see what.

[mendhak]

Did you give its own application pool?

[max_carpenter]

Yes I did, here is a couple of screenshots:

[max_carpenter]

Think I might have found the problem :-) Ill let you know in a bit...

[max_carpenter]

No not that. Any suggestions?

[mendhak]

OK, try a few things.

Create a simple HTML page. See if IIS can display it.
Create a simple classic ASP page. See if IIS can display it.
Right click your virtual directory, go through the tabs - one of the tabs will tell you where the logs are being stored. It's possible that the main website rather than the virtual directory mentions this. Go to the log files. Now try accessing your .aspx pages again and then look at the log file for any error messages.
While you're at it, look at Start > Run > eventvwr.

[max_carpenter]

Ok I will have a look later. I have tried a basic HTML page and it works fine.

[koolprasad2003]

Is your first page "Default.aspx" ??? if no then set the page in Documents

[gep13]

Hey,

Ok, something quite strange is going on here?!? The url that you posted isn't even listing the pages that you can see within IIS.

Have you removed them?

Gary

[mendhak]

I did see the aspx pages there last night, this morning they were gone. Yes, I'm an IISStalker.

[max_carpenter]

Good Evening,

No I havn't removed the files but they were missing, very strange. I have put them back now so they should be back on:

http://dhcd.co.uk/Surveys

Regards,
MAx

[mendhak]

Did you do the ASP file check? Did you do the log file check? What's in the App_Data folder?

[mendhak]

Also, is customErrors set to Off in web.config? The server is redirecting us to IIS's 404 page, so I'm wondering if an exception is bubbling up too.

[max_carpenter]

Ok,

ASP works perfectly, With the CustomErrors On/Off/RemoteOnly(Default) it does the same every time.

Im wondering if I should abolish IIS delete my website and all settings, uninstall and reinstall .net and then set IIS back up?

Is it worth going through that hassle?

[mendhak]

Before that, look at the log files dude! There are bound to be errors there.

[max_carpenter]

Sorry I meant to look there but got distracted :-)

This is the only thing I can see through all the logs this was a few mins ago when I was trying to access again and I tested the ASP page which you can see:

[mendhak]

Nothing there.

OK, do you have a tab in IIS called web service extensions? Expand it and enable what you see there.


Is this the only site, among others, in which ASPX isn't working or does it not work anywhere? In other words, if you create a new website and plonk your app there, does it work?

[max_carpenter]

This is the only website I have but I tried creating a new website and plonking my pagse there and exactly the same happened still.

I can't see that tab you are on about. Where is that located?

[max_carpenter]

Oh sorry you said Tab, its not a tab but yes I know what you mean.

Also think I have actually found the problem now. Give me 5 mins and I will give something a go...

[mendhak]

It's still called a tab

[max_carpenter]

I wouldnt call that a tab. A Tab is,,, well I can't explain it....

That is,,umm Well a Tree Directory :-P

How the hell do you uninstall .Net!!!! Saying it can't install because it will effect other applications?

[max_carpenter]

Think I have managed it now. Manually running the setup.exe in the framework folder

Also to let you know what I think the problem is. When I went to the wev services i saw asp enabled, asp.net.....should be no problem... look again only .net 1 is listed!!!!

[mendhak]

Not by me by any means - they call it a tab.

Oh and AHA!! Let us know how that gets along, I think this should solve your problem.

[max_carpenter]

Yes It should hopefully :-D Taking awhile though

[max_carpenter]

Yes, its working now. There must of been something wrong with the .Net installation. Thanks for all your help. I can now publish my survey :-)

[gep13]

Hey,

I have seen issues with this when IIS is installed after the .Net framework is installed. Is that the order that you did it? In which case I have always had to re-install ASP.Net. This is normally how I have done it, using this tool:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...8h(VS.80).aspx

If your question has been answered, remember to mark your thread as resolved.

Gary

[max_carpenter]

Hi, Yes it prob was installed .net then IIS thinking about it.

I was just playing around before I mark it as resolved. Got a lot of runtime errors :-)

But all good for now. If anyone fancies helping me out with research please complete this very very small survey about the Anti-Theft Project I will be working on:

http://www.dhcd.co.uk/Default.aspx

Thanks,
Max

[gep13]

Hey,

Haven't done the survey, but I didn't notice a spelling mistake

This information along with the pictures ill be transfered over

Assuming that should be will, not ill.

Gary

[max_carpenter]

Yes should be thanks for pointing that out will edit it now. Only spent a couple of minutes on that survey :-)

I am sure you can't tell...

[mendhak]

Congrats. Told you so. Got an error filling the survey.
