Hello, i have a server 2012 R2 (with IIS installed) - now we have an E: drive where we are going to hold just dummy files. i want the files to accessible over the web.

Now when i put the server ip's in my browser, i just see the IIS page. Only things i did so far, was enable directory browsing, and added virtual directory to the E: drive on the server.

What am i missing here?

I'm trying to achieve the following via IIS:

1. Redirect requests for App-A to Server-A

2. Redirect requests for App-B to Server-B

3. Redirect everything else to Server-C

I have 1 & 2 working via simple redirect rules:

1.

Requested URL: Matches the pattern

Pattern: ^App-A

Action type: Redirect

Redirect URL: https://Server-A.fqdn/App-A

2.

Requested URL: Matches the pattern

Pattern: ^App-B

Action type: Redirect

Redirect URL: https://Server-B.fqdn/App-B

3.

I haven't sorted this one out yet.

The following is not working:

Requested URL: Does not match the pattern

Pattern: ^App-A, ^App-B

Action type: Redirect

Redirect URL: https://Server-C.fqdn/

Seems that the requested path is not preserved and appended to the redirect URL therefore the destination is unreachable.

Hello Experts, i need some help configuring/optimising IIS8 on a Windows 2012 Server correctly

We have 1 HP DL380 G8 with 128GB of RAM and 2 x Xeon E5-2680 2.70GHz Processors

The Server is running a single PHP driven Website.  At present, we have about 4000 users connecting to the Server from all over the world and running requests on it.  The Server is only using about 9% of its memory and 10% of its CPU.  We have noticed around midday (12:00 - 13:00) that the website begins to run slow on some operations then speeds up towards the end of the day.  We know that with the amount of users and traffic, the system is well used all day.  We have an 800MB leased line which is showing a utilisation of 7% so the issue is nothing to do with bandwidth.  We have a WatchGuard firebox as our firewall and cloudflare DNS routing.

I don't know that much about IIS8 and its in depth configuration. Surely we are not using the power of the server correctly to serve client requests.  Last night, i changed the worker processes from 1 to 2 to see if that improves performance.

Is there an issue with queue lengths, have i not given IIS enough resources?

I have attached a screen shot of MS Resource Monitor from 8:23am this moninrg

Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated

Regards

Andy

Do I need to mark old cert and than create cert request

or do I need mark IIS server and than create cert request option?

So,to sumarize.Create cert request on one server,import cert and  then export(pfx) and move it and import to another IIS server?
When I create cert request does this information(organizational unit,organization…)must match with old cert and if so how can I find those information on old cert?IT engineer who has purchase cert last year doesnt work here anymore.

hi all

A little question on restricting a proxying URL please.

I have the following that matches users coming into our website (maps.test.gov.uk for example) and the proxying works fine but we want to be able to stop people getting to the proxied content if the URL contains "/private" in it.

Can one of you guru's advise how I go about that please, I'm assuming its simple but the system is live so I don't want to "play" to learn

so, as an example:
maps.test.gov.uk/examplefolder/public/map.php would work
maps.test.gov.uk/examplefolder/private/map.php would fail, perhaps show a error message?

   <rule name="maps.test.gov.uk" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true">
        <match url="^(.*)" />
        <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
            <add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^maps.test.gov.uk$" />
        </conditions>
        <serverVariables>
            <set name="HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_ACCEPT_ENCODING" value="{HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING}" />
            <set name="HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING" value="" />
        </serverVariables>
        <action type="Rewrite" url="http://11.22.33.44/{R:1}" logRewrittenUrl="false" />
    </rule>

Hello,

When launching a remote app. we are getting the error 'Remote App Disconnected... There are no available computers in the pool. Try connecting again or contact your network administrator.'

My boss seems to think it's because he hasn't installed the RDS CALs, however when I look at the RD Licensing Manager I have a green check mark next to our server's name and under the License Version and Type  window I see 'Windows Server 2016 - Installed RDS Per User CAL'.

How can I tell if the CALs have been properly installed?  or do I have a different problem?

Please let me know.

Thanks,
~AJ

Hi I have 2 iis instalations on different servers within same network. 1 x iis is hosting rdweb, 1 x iis has a website. I would like users to connect via vpn and be able to access the website. Ports 80, 443 are currently forwarded to the rdweb iis server. I'll have a dns entry remote.domain.com pointing to the external IP for the RDWEB. how do i get differentdomain.com to point to the second IIS server? Read some things about IIS redirect, not sure that if thats the way to do this? IF it is detailed instructions would be helpful :)

Thanks,

IIS 6 & Redirecting W3C logs to a shared folder. I would like to store the W3C logs generated on our IIS server to a shared folder on another server that I use for storing logs. I have been able to change the log path in IIS to the shared folder and it has the correct permissions to write and store logs in it.

My problem occurs in instances where the logging server is not available, like a schedule reboot, and the shared folder cannot be written to by the IIS application. I have found that IIS does not attempt to re-establish the connection to the shared folder. And further when the logging path is switched back to the default path on the IIS server, there is a gap in the logs. So it doesn't appear IIS is caching the logs.

Appreciate assistance in diagnosing this problem and resolving it.

Just Moved my wordpress site to IIS10 with latest version of php. It works for a while after which it gives a weird error. And then I would need to restart the server for it to work.
