Web Server ?

Hi,all you pros out there!I'm new in WebSite Programming so (I say it from the start) if I make any stupid mistakes don't mark on me! K,now that this is sayed,follows my question and requestment:
-I wanted to install a Web Server and when i write in my browser (IE6.0) http://localhost appears "The page cannot be displayed" ... can pls somebody with experience help me giving me a professional and detailed advice?I'd be very thankful. Thx!

I already tried out all what could be the cause for the problem
1.I looked in my browser (IE6-0) at LAN Settings for proxy server (not checked).
2.when i go into internet Information Services appears only Default FTP-Site
3.in Services is IIS is in Windows Components Wizard cheked(Windows 2000 Professional)

... just as help so that you can help me ...What directory on your local drive does the default web site point to (usually c:\inetpub\wwwroot)? Do any of the default documents configured for the site exist in that path?
I've got an inetpub directory,but it has only ftproot as subfolder (c:\inetpub\ftproot) and there aren't files in both directories.
What should i do?What's my problem? Thx
But you see a "Default Web Site" as a node in the IIS Admin console? If so, right-click that and choose "Properties". There should be a tab called "Home Directory" and a text box in there labelled "Local Path".

What does it have in there?
There is no Default Web Site,there is no NODE in the IIS Admin console! What should i do?
There's no "node" in the IIS Admin console. Hmm. Could you take a screen shot and post it somewhere where we can see it?

Hi All,
Not really even sure where to start.
What kind of software would I have to install on a machine to turn it
into an ASP .NET 2.0 web server?
Thanks,

IIS and the .Net Framework 2.0.
That's all.

How to make an Web Server to host a ASP .Net page and to work like this :
- the servers work many computer
- the page connect to server from one computer
- one computer with server die and other computer take the place with
all connected pageYou will need either a load balanced or web farm for the roll over.

Web Server

This could be a very dumb question. I've always used ASP.NET with IIS being the web server on Win2K Server or XP Pro. Is it possible to run ASP.NET on Apache on Unix/Linux server?Nope.

And it's not dumb. That's a common request.

Don
I thought so. So when I hear that around 80% of the web servers are run on Linux/Unix, what development tools are they using? Is there a comparision chart using Apache on Linux/Unix v/s Win2K using IIS. I have just started working on .NET and the the IDE is absolutely mindblowing. Is there any other development tool that even comes close to .NET?
It is depend man, if you want to develop in Linux platform then go with PHP i recommend, however if you work with ASP.net then I basically recommend use Vs.net and IIS. But as my opinion they are almost the same, the only difference is that with ASP.net you have so many tools, controls, and support from all over the internet like everybody in this forum. And I don't find any PHP support as good as this web site man

Go try use Web Matrix if you don't want to get VS.net 2003

You can also use Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004

Cheers,
I have no intentions going to Linux/PHP combination. I am perfectly happy with .NET environment. And you are right, whenever I have had any question, I've just posted it on a forum here or VBCity and I've got a response within 12 to 24 hours. Would you reconnebd any other forums that are this responsive?

A lot of people are looking for free solutions. So MySQL, Linux, PHP probably is appealing to them. Though VS.NET, WIN2K, SQL Server is not free, it surely is inexpensive. The only reason I was asking is that is there anything at all in the development cycle, that could be done with PHP but not in ASP.NET?
So you mean a little bit about integrating both PHP and ASP.net. If that's the case, then I think you can integrate both by using XML, however you must be sure that you can process the XML generated by either PHP or ASP.net. I am not sure about the ability of PHP for processing XML data. But one thing that I can be sure is that it can be done in ASP.net perfectly. With PHP ver 5 I am sure that it has the ability because PHP ver 5 supports Web Service

Cheers,
I don't think I am going to go to PHP way. If I can accomplish everything in ASP.NET, I'll stick to that. My concern will be security and availability ( web server uptime ). Does the Win2K server go down more often than a Unix server? What about virus attacks?

Bottom line: If I can build an industrial strength application with ASP.NET that runs SMOOTHLY on Win2K, I do not want to go to Unix.
I have been dealing with the same problem. Deep down in my heart of hearts, I KNOW there is a way to run ASP with Apache - there just has to be. I've tried moving my DLL files, telling Apache to load different modules. Thus far, I have not come up with the right configuration for Apache to run ASP correctly.
As for a substitute scripting language on Linnux, I recommend Larry Well's programming language. PERL.
Well, obviously I would encourage you to get the facts and compare how many critical security problems there have been on Windows 2003+IIS6 and Linux/Apache v.last.
it is.

Web Server

I have installed the VS 2003.net , IIS 5.1 and wanted to use it creating a ASP project.But every times when I click ASP.net web application, there will have a warning"The specified web server is not running ASP.net version 1.1, you will unable to run asp.net web applications and services."Did you try just re-installing .NET 1.1 after the VS.NET installation?
If you install IIS after installing .Net framework, you will need to run a command to register ASP.Net with IIS.

The command is, found in your .Net framework instllation directory:

c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\<version>\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

What's the server requirement if it has a database to around 30 users. Is 512 RAM OK?

There's no valid answer to this, you don't have anywhere near enough information here. Is this 30 users logging on and off every 2 seconds? Is the database holding fully searchable contents of the Library of Congress? Are you running the web server, SQL, Exchange, a proxy server, DNS and an Active Directory on this server?

Start with what you have,. If you need to, upgrade.

Web Server

What Happens when

(1) A client requests a web page that contains client-side code from a web server.

(2) A client requests a web page that contains server-side code code from a web server.

a) page markup and client side code are sent to the client

b) server code executes on the server and resulting page markup is sent to the client.

In simple words:

(1) Simple server will serve the html and client side code in response to request.

(2) Server will execute the necessary process to serve the request and will serve the html and client side code(if any) in response to request.

when client side code is requested then it is done at the client side

when a server side code is there then it goes to the server, server will process th code and reply the client.

both are different

client side is mainly used for validation purpose and server side code is used for processing.

Right Ajay I am totally agree with you what was I mean to say that first time when your request is getting processed on the server. Once your request is processed and you have client script on the browser, then what you said is perfect.

(1) A client requests a web page that contains client-side code from a web server.

==> The client side code is sent by the server to the client. Client side script may be of the form of Javascript, jscript, vbscript etc. Third party plugins like Adobe Flash Player etc. (that processes swf files) are handled client-side. This means that the processing load happens on the client system's processor.

(2) A client requests a web page that contains server-side code code from a web server.

==> As explained above, server side code is handled by the server. The server is where the IIS is installed. The IIS handles the ASP.NET runtime engine. Must read this beautiful article ...http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/011404-1.aspx

I would also like to point out here, there there are situations where code seems to be handled client-side, but it actually is being handled server side...I'm talking about Ajax where partial postbacks are sent to the server (that means that the entire page is not sent for processing to the server, rather a partial page request is sent...this internally happens using Javascript's XMLHttpRequest object...view this for more...http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/
