Let me first say I soley beleive IIS is usless because I have never gotten it to work ever, no matter what I do it never lets me access the website.
Before I start let me establish I have no choice but to use IIS in this instance and I really need this to work.
Let me also establish the following:
Yes I have tried turning it off and on again
There is 0 (NONE) firewall on this machine, and yes the server is entirely updated
My question is, whenever I try to create a website, for example the port im launching a server on is on port 3606.
I am attempting to have my website come up on port 3606, and direct me into a folder that is located at c:\mysqlservices
Now! Inside this folder is phpmyadmin source files, and in a desperate attempt to get this to work I have made the permissions to where EVERYONE, IUSR and IIS_USR all have full read write and nuking permisisons to this directory, its files, and all of its subdirectories.
Now, When I go to this address, for example, panel.archservers.com:3606,
All I get is the issue "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied."
Thank you in advance for the help, all I need is to get this IIS server to actually work, because as it is, I cannot do anything with this IIS server..
Thank you very much in advance
This link suggest to add "IIS_IUSRS" user, which is not the same as "IIS_USR".
I needed to install the PHP core, then reset my permissions back to just iis_usrs.
It worked great
you are entering a wrong context...give a correct context of your application it will open that page..
Ex:
www.example.com - Forbidden Error
www.example.com/ex.jsp - Displays the respected page
Also check proper permissions are supplied or not to the directories

I have a godaddy website hosted through cPanel, but the html file, named test.html, will not appear when searching "website_name"/test.html. This is the contents of the file:
<!DOCTYPE html><head></head><body>TEST</body></html>
There is no .htaccess, although permissions are set to 644. The server displays the 500 error regardless of whether a valid address was entered. Additionally, the DNS domain and the actual ip address show different things: The DNS shows an index page I can't find in my public_html, whereas the ip shows the godaddy "Future home of something quite cool." message.
Background: I inherited this project as part of a new job. I can set up an apache server with php and mySQL support (in fact I went from using an xampp install to just running everything from command line for practice), but my employer has two godaddy domains: one made using a website building, and one using cPanel for which I am to write my own HTML, CSS, php, js, etc. I have searched extensively across godaddy, google and stack exchange, and have found nothing so far that has worked. The cPanel File Manager has a couple files in it, but nothing will open as a url (I can edit the files though). I checked the godaddy documentation and follow the tutorials and nothing has helped. Any help is appreciated. As an aside, I’m wondering if it would just be easier to completely restart the whole process? The html/css/php files are kind of a hodgepodge and would require rewrites anyway, and bootstrap is used as a source file in every one but never actually implemented. The environment is very relaxed so long as I’m working on something productive.
I have deployed a PHP website do an OpenShift PHP 5.4 Cartridge. The application loads just fine, CSS, JS, etc. but images do not load correctly. The images exist in the git repo which is being pushed to OpenShift just fine but when I attempt to access an image, say from http://someopenshiftapp/images/logo.jpg it fails with a 500 error.
The server log gives me:
/app-root/runtime/repo/images/.htaccess: Invalid command 'IndexIgnore', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
I am trying to resolve this issue but so far google has not been able to help me. I tried editing the httpd.conf to include the module but that is a read only file. I may have to create a new cartridge from scratch? How do I serve images with OpenShift?
I don't know the exact reasons why Apache was behaving like this but it was. There was a robots.txt file disallowing all user agents in the image directory that another developer had added. This was causing the Apache installation to give a 500 error when attempting to access resources within the images sub-directory. If anyone has any further explanation I am willing to listen but for now this mystery is solved.
I may test this exact case in a stand alone Apache environment unrelated to OpenShift and attempt to reproduce this error. :) Happy Coding.
I have a basic web site (just html, js and css files) that I want to host on IIS on my local machine for testing purposes. The site runs fine when I run it directly as a file on my computer. I added a website on IIS, using the directory these files are located in, but when I try to launch it, I get an error page that says:
An error occurred loading a configuration file: Failed to start monitoring changes to '[my site path]' because access is denied.
It then says that the source file is a web.config. I know that ASP.NET sites use a web.config, but I don't even have one, and I just want to run a basic site using html, css, and javascript.
Any ideas on what the fix might be? I made sure I have an application pool for the site.
You likely put it into your user profile -- ie c:\users\skitterm\ -- which won't let the process running IIS read the folder. You are better off using IIS' built in directory structure in c:\inetpub and adding a folder for your site.
As you can tell this is a server misconfiguration. It would help to know the version of your IIS.
You can follow the steps on Microsoft's official knowledgebase to resolve the issue:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316721
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/317955 (for IIS v6.0, try Method 3)
I worked in IIS about a year ago and such errors are caused by misconfigured Security settings in IIS.
Sounds like you need to set up the proper access rights for the folder to the account specified by the application pool identity.
First make sure that your folder is not anywhere under your \users\, \program files\, or any other place that already has restricted access. Put it under a folder on the root (\inetpub is a good place).
Then, add the appropriate permissions (usually read only) for the folder to allow the user account specified by the app pool identity to access it. If the app pool identity is set to ApplicationPoolIdentity, adding the IIS_IUSRS local group should do it. Otherwise, use the account that is specified.
This should fix the problem.
This is probably a simple fix, but I am having trouble googling the answer. What I have done was make a copy of a page that is currently on the site and renamed it. So for example I made a copy of page1.htm and renamed it to page1temp.htm. Now when I try to navigate to page1temp.htm it won't display the page, but instead asks for a username/password. If I navigate to page1.htm it still works as expected. I'm not sure what I am missing here. I am using IIS on a Windows Server 2003 R2.
I'm not sure what I need to change in IIS to get the page to display properly. Any help or clues would be greatly appreciated.
Check the NTFS permissions of the file (for example, by right-clicking on the file in Windows Explorer and checking the Security settings). Compare the permissions for both files. Chances are that the user used for anonymous authentication of your web site (might be IUSR_something) has permissions to read one file but not the other.
I am getting a 404 error for a file that is absolutely there.
It's at location domain.com/video/videoname.mp4. When I try to play it using Flash, it says video not found or access denied.
It keeps giving not found errors.
When I navigate to domain.com/video/, videoname.mp4 appears very clearly there. However, when I click it, it gives a 404 error.
Would this be a permissions issue?
It's a Windows server, which I'm less useful. There's also an IIS install, but it isn't used in the actual administration of this particular site.
My guess is a server setting or a permissions setting, but I'm trying to do a sanity check here.
You can setup the IIS server to run under a specific account one that doesn't have access issues. I would just make sure you create an application account to do this and don't put it on a user account. I know that there are IUSR accounts that are the default accounts that are used by IIS these default accounts might have the permission issues.
Another possibility is that the MIME type for the video is not setup properly. You could put a basic html file in this directory to test to see if the extension MIME mapping might be a problem.
