Hi Rick,

IISStart.htm in the root directory displays the IIS Welcome page via http://localhost

I copied the file DEFAULT.HTM from the wconnect directory to the root and it displays (not properly because the styles aren't there) via http://localhost so it appears that static content (which I had to turn on) is working and it is also recognizing DEFAULT.HTM as the default page over IISSTART.HTM

There's nothing that I can think of running on port 80. It's a new machine and all I have installed is VFP9, Office2010, McAfee, FireFox and WebConnection.

Stumped so far...

Not sure, frankly. I've seen this before recently but I already forgot what the issue was. I think in that case it was related to two seperate virtual directories pointing at the same virtual path.

Does static content work anywhere on the Web server?

Is the Web server running for sure? Possibly some other app is running on port 80 (like Skype will run over port 80 unless you tell it otherwise).

Not a Web Connection issue - an IIS issue.

I just got a new machine running Windows7 Pro 64 bit and cannot get http://localhost/wconnect/default.htm to display.

http://localhost displays the ISS7 graphic.
Initially, Static Content was not enabled and http://localhost displayed nothing.
After turning Static Content on, it displayed OK.

http://localhost/wconnect/default.htm displays nothing. No error, no response of any kind.

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wconnect\default.htm displays no problem but shows nothing under localhost.


Any idea what I'm missing?

Thanks.
