Access IIS Express on a VMWare Win7 - vmware

I'm running a ASP.NET MCV 4 project in VS2012 on a windows 7 virtual machine using VMWare. I want to be able to access the site from my mac.
I've done all the steps stated in this question. Restarted IIS, turned off windows firewall, changed the application config file and granted remote access to the ACL and I still get a 503 error in my mac.
Any steps I could have missed?
application config file is the following:
<site name="prototype" id="2">
<application path="/" applicationPool="Clr4IntegratedAppPool">
<virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="C:\Users\Igor Popov\Desktop\myapp\prototype" />
</application>
<bindings>
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation=":50438:192.168.0.9" />
</bindings>
</site>

1.Editing applicationhost.config file, your site bindings should look like below;
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:50438:localhost" />
2.Run your VS as administrator.
3.Visite the site with "localhost:50438" in your mac.

Bad Request - Invalid Hostname in IIS8

I am working on an asp.net core application, but my project stops running from debug mode(using f5). I need to host it on local IIS to debug the code. When running it locally I am getting this error "Bad Request - Invalid Hostname".
You can try below steps to solve this problem:
Exit the IIS Express instant currently running.
Open IIS Express’s applicationhost.config located at the following path C:\Users\\Documents\IISExpress\config\applicationhost.config
Find the entry for a particular site (e.g “Test” running in port 6306) which you are developing.e.g:
<site name="test" id="1">
<application path="/" applicationPool="gratedAppPool">
<virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="" />
</application>
<bindings>
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:6306:localhost" />
</bindings>
</site>
Replace the following bindingInformation=":6306:localhost" with bindingInformation=":6306:*"
Save the file.
Start a command prompt in administrator mode and run the following command.
netsh http add urlacl url=http://*:6306/ user=Everyone
Now debug the site again and you should be able to access the url using host name.

How do you turn off Sitecore ECM processing on CD server?

We have a CD and CM server configured. We want to configure the CM server to process ECM emails. I cannot find any documentation to turn this off on the CD server.
Does anyone know how to turn this off?
Remove the processors from the initialize pipeline and the task agent from the scheduling section of Sitecore.EmailCampaign.config. You can use a patch config:
<pipelines>
<initialize>
<processor type="Sitecore.EmailCampaign.Presentation.UI.Pipelines.Loader.InitializePresenterBinder, Sitecore.EmailCampaign.Presentation.UI">
<patch:delete />
</processor>
<processor type="Sitecore.EmailCampaign.Presentation.UI.Pipelines.Loader.ConfigurePresenterBinderContainer, Sitecore.EmailCampaign.Presentation.UI">
<patch:delete />
</processor>
</initialize>
</pipelines>
<scheduling>
<agent hint="ECM">
<patch:delete />
</agent>
</scheduling>
You also need to make sure the module files and a connectionstring to a web service on CM is added in your CD environment. See section 3.4.2 of the Email Campaign Manager Developer Guide for more details.

Getting Unable to read WSDL error

I have tried to search for the error online but couldn't figure how what's wrong in my code. Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong
Here are the steps you need to perform in order to install the certificate to the Java keystore for ColdFusion. First, be sure you are updating the correct cacerts file that ColdFusion is using. In case you have more than one JRE installed on that server. You can verify the JRE ColdFusion is using from the administrator under the 'System Information'. Look for the Java Home line.
The default truststore is the JRE's cacerts file. This file is typically located in the following places:
Server Configuration:
cf_root/runtime/jre/lib/security/cacerts
Multiserver/J2EE on JRun 4 Configuration:
jrun_root/jre/lib/security/cacerts
Sun JDK installation:
jdk_root/jre/lib/security/cacerts
Consult documentation for other J2EE application servers and JVMs
In order to install the certificate you need to first get a copy of the certificate. This can be done by using Internet Explorer. Note that different versions of Internet Explorer will behave slightly differently but should be very similar to these steps. For example, earlier versions of IE might save the certificate under a different tab than I mention.
Browse to the SSL URL in Internet Explorer - https://xyz/infoLookup.php?wsdl.
View the certificate by clicking on the lock icon and clicking view certificate
Then click the Install Certificate... button (note: if you do not see this button you must close IE and run it as administrator first)
Click on IE's Internet Options and click the Content tab
Click the Certificates button
Find the server's certificate under the Intermediate Certification Authorities tab, select the cert and click the Export... button
Export using DER format
Copy the exported certificate file to your ColdFusion server (you can delete the cert from IE if you want)
Run cmd prompt as administrator on the ColdFusion server
Make a backup of the original cacerts file in case you run into issues
The keytool is part of the Java SDK and can be found in the following places:
Server Configuration:
cf_root/runtime/bin/keytool
Multiserver/J2EE on JRun 4 Configuration:
jrun_root/jre/bin/keytool
Sun JDK installation:
jdk_root/bin/keytool
Consult documentation for other J2EE application servers and JVMs
To install the cert:
Change directory to your truststore's location (where the cacerts file is located)
Type this command (use current jvm and use current jvm's keytool) "c:\program files\java\jre7\bin\keytool" -import -v -alias your_cert_alias_name -file C:\wherever_you_saved_the_file\cert_file.cer -keystore cacerts -storepass changeit
Type yes at the prompt to "Trust this certificate?"
Note: *your_cert_alias_name* I used above can be whatever you want
Note: *C:\wherever_you_saved_the_file\cert_file.cer* change these values to whatever you use for the server folder and certificate file name
To verify the cert:
Type this command (use current jvm and use current jvm's keytool) "c:\program files\java\jre7\bin\keytool" -list -v -keystore cacerts -alias your_cert_alias_name -storepass changeit
Note: *your_cert_alias_name* use the same name here that you used above to install the cert
Restart the ColdFusion service It will not read the updated cacerts file until you do this.
You can delete the imported certificate file from the server if you wish.

Log level in Jboss as 7 classloaders

How do I change the log level for the classloaders in Jboss as 7?
As a side note;
I have found information on how to do this in Jboss 5 and below but since the classloading and logging has completely changed in Jboss 7 I cant figure out how to do it.
https://community.jboss.org/wiki/EnableClassloaderLogging
Add the following to JAVA_OPTS in your start up script.
-verbose:class
And the following to your Jboss config file (standalone.xml for example).
<profile>
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:1.1">
<logger category="org.jboss.as.deployment">
<level name="DEBUG"/>
</logger>
</subsystem>
</profile>

AppFabric ErrorCode<ERRCA0017><ES0006>:

I have installed AppFabric on the server. I have created a cluster of a single computer . I have also create a cache named "Gagan".
used the following commands in order
Use-CacheCluster -Provider xml -ConnectionString \NB-GJANJUA\Cache
Start-CacheCluster
Result is that the cache service is up and running ..so far so good.
I then setup my web.config file like below
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>

</system.web>

</system.webServer>
</configuration>
But as soon as I launch my site , it comes up with this error
Parser Error Message: ErrorCode:SubStatus:There is a temporary failure. Please retry later. (One or more specified Cache servers are unavailable, which could be caused by busy network or servers. Ensure that security permission has been granted for this client account on the cluster and that the AppFabric Caching Service is allowed through the firewall on all cache hosts. Retry later.)

Is there something that I am missing ?
Note : I have already referenced the
Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Caching.Client and the
Microsoft.APplicationServer.Caching.Core assemblies
THanks for your time and patience

I was also having this error. Just to test client in development I switched off security by using AppFabric Power Shell command
Stop-CacheCluster
Set-CacheClusterSecurity -SecurityMode None -ProtectionLevel None
Start-CacheCluster
Also set following in client application in web.config
<dataCacheClient>
<securityProperties mode="None" protectionLevel="None"/>
</dataCacheClient>
This is not production scenario but the above error disappear when these settings are applied.
I had a similar issue, running IIS 7.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2. I resolved it by issuing the following commands in PowerShell (started from the Windows AppFabric folder in Start, All Programs):
New-Cache -CacheName NameOfCacheAsSetInWebConfig -TimeToLive 30
Grant-CacheAllowedClientAccount "IIS AppPool\NameOfAppPoolRunningSite"
Once I did that, I was all set.
Have you granted access to the cache for whatever user your website is running as?
Grant-CacheAllowedClientAccount Gagan
I solved this problem as follows:
Launch Windows Task manager and notice under what User Name your w3wp.exe is running?
In my case it was: ASP.NET v4.0
Launched Start -> All Programs -> Windows Server App Fabric -> IIS manager
In IIS , select Machine name and then Application Pools on top left handside.
In Application Pools..Verify that ASP.net v4.0 exists under Application Pools.
Launched Start -> All Programs -> Windows Server App Fabric -> Caching Administration Windows Power Shell
Type the following command on the prompt: Grant-CacheAllowedClientAccount "ASP.NET v4.0"
restarted the web application and following error went away:
ErrorCode<ERRCA0017>:SubStatus<ES0006>:There is a temporary failure. Please retry later. (One or more specified Cache servers are unavailable, which could be caused by busy network or servers. Ensure that security permission has been granted for this client account on the cluster and that the AppFabric Caching Service is allowed through the firewall on all cache hosts. Retry later.)
I had this problem and it was just that the Cache Cluster was down after a reboot. I didn't realize that you have to manually switch the service to start automatically in the services. Detailed information on that is here.
Commenting out the following in the config fixed it for me:
<sessionState customProvider="AppFabricCacheSessionStoreProvider" mode="Custom" timeout="90">
<providers>
<add name="AppFabricCacheSessionStoreProvider" type="Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Caching.DataCacheSessionStoreProvider" cacheName="Session" sharedId="SharedApp" />
</providers>
</sessionState>
By default the worker processes will be setup as an iis user, those users need access. In your Caching Administration Windows Powershell type the following
Grant-CacheAllowedClientAccount IIS_IUSRS
