| 1)" The requested service has already been started. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2182" 2)It's "listening" on 0.0.0.0:80 and "Established" on 127.0.0.1:80 . 3) Usually it just hangs and waits; I think I've gotten a "Page not found" once or twice. Of note: Looking at another computer, I saw that the computer listing in their IIS not only contained a "properties" option which mine lacks, but the computer name in the IIS was preceded by an asterisk, which mine also lacks. Thanks for any continuing assistance you can render. >-----Original Message----- >At cmd prompt, > >1) net start w3svc >what's the reply ? > >2) netstat -an >any binding on port 80 ? > >3) what do you get ? page not found >http://localhost/ ? >what about http://127.0.0.1/ >and http://ip.ip.ip.ip/ - your IP address > > >-- >Regards, >Bernard Cheah >http://support.microsoft.com/ >Please respond to newsgroups only ... > > >"GeorgeIII" <hououkin@yahoo.com> wrote in message >news:0ff601c345a4$d85136a0$a001280a@phx.gbl... >> I have tried EVERYTHING, including uninstalling and >> reinstalling IIS, and yet, I am unable to access the >> localhost via HTTP.

| Bernard: I just tried re-installing IIS again. ( Third time ). No luck. I can't change the settings of IIS or my local computer. There's no "properties" tag. I can change the settings of the default website itself, but it doesn't do anything. >-----Original Message----- >So can you use IIS MMC to change settings >of your IIS ? > >If not I would suggest you reinstall IIS. > > > >-- >Regards, >Bernard Cheah >http://support.microsoft.com/ >Please respond to newsgroups only ... > > >"GeorgeIII" <hououkin@yahoo.com> wrote in message >news:985201c34624$bd25bd80$a401280a@phx.gbl... >> 1)" The requested service has already been started. >> More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2182" >> >> 2)It's "listening" on 0.0.0.0:80 and >> "Established" on 127.0.0.1:80 . >> >> 3) Usually it just hangs and waits; I think I've gotten >> a "Page not found" once or twice. >> >> Of note: Looking at another computer, I saw that the >> computer listing in their IIS not only contained a >> "properties" option which mine lacks, but the computer >> name in the IIS was preceded by an asterisk, which mine >> also lacks. >> >> Thanks for any continuing assistance you can render. >> >> >-----Original Message----- >> >At cmd prompt, >> > >> >1) net start w3svc >> >what's the reply ? >> > >> >2) netstat -an >> >any binding on port 80 ? >> > >> >3) what do you get ? page not found >> >http://localhost/ ? >> >what about http://127.0.0.1/ >> >and http://ip.ip.ip.ip/ - your IP address >> > >> > >> >-- >> >Regards, >> >Bernard Cheah >> >http://support.microsoft.com/ >> >Please respond to newsgroups only ... >> > >> > >> >"GeorgeIII" <hououkin@yahoo.com> wrote in message >> >news:0ff601c345a4$d85136a0$a001280a@phx.gbl... >> >> I have tried EVERYTHING, including uninstalling and >> >> reinstalling IIS, and yet, I am unable to access the >> >> localhost via HTTP.

| Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, it didn't quite work. I'm not sure what's going on. It just will not connect to http://localhost/, although I can ping it just fine.

| I have seen this many times, reason ? unknown. but it looks like there's socket error for the request.

| I had a similar problem once; before IIS was installed on the system, a wise admin had enabled IPSec. Just out of curiosity, are there any IP Security or TCP/IP filter settings in place on the system? For anyone following along at home, here are the steps to check this: Open the machine's network connection properties. Open the properties panel for TCP/IP Click on the "Advanced" button. Go to the "Options" tab. Select the relevant option and click on the properties button. For IP Security, I'd be suspicious of anything other than "Do not use IPSEC." Not that IPSec is a bad thing, but it may be the cause of your problem. For TCP/IP Filtering, if "Enable TCP/IP filtering" is enabled, try tweaking your settings there to allow traffic on the port that IIS listens on. --- Barry Randall barry@barryrandall.com |
