IIS 5.1 Page cannot be displayed - Inetserver

Look further down the bottom of the page for an error message. If the server
can not be found, you will see something like "DNS error or server can not
be found". If the server can be found, but is throwing an error you will see
something like "404 File Not found" or "500 Internal Server Error", in which
case, if you are using IE, please goto Tool -> internet Options -> Advanced
and uncheck "Show Friendly HTTP Errors" and loread the page so we can see
the real error.

"Page can not be displayed" is just a generic error, you need to look
further to see what the real errror is.

Cheers

Hi,
I do not get any of the message
I get Internet explorer DNS error
If I uncheck the Show friendly HTTP errors then I get a
blank page with a message done on the bottom left in the
status bar with hour glass.
So Unable to trace the real error.

What I understand is http://localhost is unable to map
with c:\inetpub\wwwroot.

So bcos of this I am unable to create web applications in
Visual Studio.NET

Any further assistance/suggestions will be helpful

Thanks

Try:

Cannot find "localhost":
Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings ->
Uncheck everything.
