I have an IIS site on a Windows 2012 R2 server. The site has an Application inside it:
The URL for this site is setup on our Active Directive servers as it is only accessible internally from our company. The URL follows the following structure:
http://NAMEoftheSERVICE.myCompanyServices.myCompany.local
The service for this site is placed in an internal folder:
http://NAMEoftheSERVICE.myCompanyServices.myCompany.local/InternalFolder/Service.svc
I have placed a number of test files both at the root level and in the internal folder:
http://NAMEoftheSERVICE.myCompanyServices.myCompany.local/HelloWorld.html
http://NAMEoftheSERVICE.myCompanyServices.myCompany.local/InternalFolder/HelloWorld.html
I can browse these files without any problems. However, I cannot browse the service at http://NAMEoftheSERVICE.myCompanyServices.myCompany.local/InternalFolder/Service.svc
The browser returns
However the file is there, and I have made sure there are no typos in the URL I put in the browser.
I have looked at similar questions but there seems not to be anything like the problem I am experiencing. The only question that looked promising was:
WCF service file not visible
But the answer for that post does not apply to my issue as I already have the configuration mentioned in that post setup as it is suggested.
I have checked the IIS-level config files for any exclusion regarding .svc files or anything similar, but could not find anyhting.
Have you got any suggestions on where to look at to solve this issue?
Solution: Install HTTP Activation feature
After running some more testing on other sites on the same server, I actually realised that the issue was specific to .svc files. I therefore made another search on Google and found that the server was missing the "HTTP Activation" feature (part of the WCF Services).
So, if you are having the same issue on .svc files follow the following steps to make sure you have the right components installed on the server:
Open Server Manager
In Server Manager, click the Manage menu, and then click Add Roles
and Features
In the Add Roles and Features wizard, click Next. Select the
installation type and click Next. Select the destination server and
click Next.
Skip the Server Roles page.
On the Select features page, expand ".Net Framework 4.5 Features",
expand "WCF Services" and select "HTTP Activation". Click Next.
On the Confirm installation selections page, click Install.
On the Results page, click Close.
The same can be achieved by running the following Powershell command:
Install-WindowsFeature -Name NET-WCF-HTTP-Activation45
This did the trick for me. I hope it can be of help to someone.
I have installed sql server 2008, mongodb and I tried installing a sitecore instance, but for some reason I can't navigate to any pages on the site. I checked my sql database and iis and it looks like the installation went through without any errors, but I just cant seem to navigate to the site. Any suggestions?
EDIT:
After the installation it asks to launch the instance, which I do. When I navigate to YOURSITE/sitecore the page doesn't load and just says "The Page cannot be displayed" standard IE error message when the site cannot be resolved.
Make sure that you have your site in hosts file. However I wonder why it could be absent there. As installer and SIM should modify it.
E.g.: for site "testinstance" you should have next record:
127.0.0.1 testinstance
i am approaching the development of Restful web services for the first time. I tried to follow this guide for Netbeans . I am stuck at the testing of the web service.
When i open the
http://localhost:8080/WebServicesTest/test-resbeans.html
page, none of the root resources appears in the left menu. (there should be entities.customer and entities.discountcode)
I really can't find a solution.
Thanks in advance to anyone who likes to give me a hint.
--------------- Edit
If i click on CustomerDB --> Deploy i get an error
In-place deployment at C:\Users\utente\Documents\NetBeansProjects\CustomerDB\build\web
GlassFish Server 4, deploy, null, false
C:\Users\utente\Documents\NetBeansProjects\CustomerDB\nbproject\build-impl.xml:1071:
The module has not been deployed.
See the server log for details.
The line 1071 of build-impl.xml is
<nbdeploy clientUrlPart="${client.urlPart}" debugmode="false" forceRedeploy="${forceRedeploy}"/>
I checked out the referenced tutorial.
Which exact path did you follow? Did you change anything?
Most likely your CustomerDB application is not deployed correctly (see GlassFish Server output in NetBeans) and thus is not able to expose the web service and thus is not displayed in the test page (nothing visible in the side bar).
I tried the tutorial myself and had that phenomenon when using another database ("test" instead of the sample db, which was not connectable in my installed environment), resulting in a message that "test__pm" resource was not found. I then created a conection pool and a jdbc reosurce for test and then it worked.
created and deployed a Web service application in a virtual directory using IIS 6.1. The client application works fine on the same machine. But it is not working in another machine where the client application is copied manually. Can any one help what went wrong?
In Internet explorer, The XML file is displayed in the same machine. But from other machine, 'Un able to open the page' error occurs.
Suggestions please...

Did you check your firewall settings? Can you open other pages that are served by the same IIS webserver?
My first 2 guesses would be:
1) Firewall settings, as previously mentioned.
2) The client app has a hard coded path in it somewhere that ought to be a relative path or, perhaps a URL. Something along the lines of 127.0.0.1 or localhost or C:\... within the app or in its configuration file(s).
Windows web server 2008 R2 64 bit, CF9 64 bit, IIS7, ISAPI extensions and filters and II6 metabase compatability installed. OS is on C default, and trying to install CF to D:
Testing IIS and it shows index.html correctly from c:\inetpub\wwwroot at http://localhost/index.html
Then I install CF to D:\ , single standard server licence, select run with all IIS sites, select C:\inetpub\wwwroot as the web root for administrator, and when it gets to the bit where it is supposed to open up administrator to complete the installation it opens up the browser with a 500 error.
Now when I go back to http://localhost/index.html I also get a 500 error, if i uninstall CF I can again reach the html page.
CFIDE has been installed in C:\inetpub\wwwroot presumably correctly. Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong please.
Update
The exact IIS error is
HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error
The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.
Module IsapiModule
Notification ExecuteRequestHandler
Handler AboMapperCustom-28262
Error Code 0x800700c1
Requested URL http://127.0.0.1:80/test.htm
Physical Path C:\inetpub\wwwroot\test.htm
Logon Method Anonymous
Logon User Anonymous
Resolves as below
There is a setting Enable 32-Bit Applications under Application Pool>Advanced settings. Set this to True and you will gain access to your CFIDE>Administrator page.
I would suggest first trying a restart. It is one of those things that after the fact sounds so obvious, but you never think of it. I know I have had problems with installing CF under IIS and had to restart the server to get it running.
I'm humiliated to admit it, but the problem was that what I thought was the cf9 64 bit installer, was the 32 bit one.
# Dave and # CfSimplicity many thanks for your help and in particular the IIS user account stuff was new learning for me.
Try checking the file system permissions for this folder:
D:\ColdFusion9\runtime\lib\wsconfig
The account that IIS uses needs Read, Execute and Modify permissions on this folder and below.
It might be because of two problems.
1) you haven't installed CGI, ISAPI extensions and ISAPI filters aren't installed yet in Web Server (IIS) of Server manager.
Window 2008 R2 with Coldfusion
2) you need to enable 32 bit application at IIS7.
Internal 500 error CF9 on Window 2008
I tried a different approach with my Windows 7 Home Premium - See http://coldfusioner.blogspot.com/2011/12/fix-number-1-installing-64-bit.html
It seems that I was successful by using the IIS Connector batch scripts manually and then to create a second default web site after installing the handlers. My article link above shows the steps I took - a very raw article and will likely be refined as I hear from others how they adapted my approach. The important thing is that this worked ;>) I hope it helps others...
The problem could be that your Application Pool that is part of your default website. It is possible to set it to run 32 bit applications. Try setting the Enable32bit to false in the defaultapppool of your IIS server, restart the app pool and your www service itself. Then try to use the ColdFusion wsconfig tool to add the IIS mapping. It should work even without the cf 9 updater 1 being installed on the server.
To avoid a 500 error when accessing the Administration console for the first time when installaing ColdFusion 9 on a Windows 2008 server with IIS 7.5 installed, include the "IIS_IUSRS" user group with "Full Control" to the \Lib\wsconfig folder in Enterprise server or \runtime\lib\wsconfig folder in Standard server. Before starting the ColdFusion install, make sure the "IIS 6 Management Compatibility" functions are installed, especially the "IIS 6 Metabase Compatibility" function.
Assuming that you use the default installation paths (C:\JRun4 for Enterprise or C:\ColdFusion9 for Standard), here is a step-by-step approach:
Begin the ColdFusion installer as an Administrator. At the completion of the initial installation process, but before accessing the online Administration console, do the following:
1.) At the Start Menu, select "Computer"
2.) In the Enterprise install, go to C:\JRun4\lib. For the Standard install, go to C:\ColdFusion9\runtime\lib.
3.) Right-click "wsconfig" and select "Properties" to open the wsconfig properties dialog box.
4.) Click the "Security" tab.
5.) Click "Edit" to change permissions for that folder.
6.) Click "Add..." to add a new user/group.
7.) Enter "IIS_IUSRS" in the Object name field and click OK to return to the Permissions dialog box.
8.) In the permissions dialog box, ensure that the "IIS_IUSRS" group is highlighted and click "Full Control" in the "Allow" column, then click "OK" to close the dialog box. Ensure that the permissions change will affect all files and folders under wsconfig.
9.) Click "OK" to close the wsconfig properties box.
Return to the ColdFusion installer wizard and continue the installation by clicking the open ColdFusion Administrator link. If the settings are correct, after a minute or two, a web browser with the ColdFusion Administrator Console should appear so you can complete the installation.
