    HTTP 404 error on http://localhost or http://numerical IP or http://127.0.0.1

    Bonjour

     

    The system I want to use for development

    comprises IIS7 on a Vista Business 64-bit  Asus P5K-VM Intel Core 2 Quad  4 GB

     

    IIS7 is running since it  serves pages addressed by an external  user issuing  its domain name  http://cerbere.ca

    FTP is also functionning correctly (IIS 6.0)The problem is that the machine cannot be reached using (from within nor from outside) with its  IP  http://64.235.209.83/   and   a   HTTP 404 error   is obtained when either a  http://localhost or  http://numerical IP  or http://127.0.0.1  is issued from within it.The machine though answers  Ping 64.235.209.83  both  from within and from another machine.  The network card is a  Marvell Yukon 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller which, when interrogated,  shows that the DHCP is not set on,   nor does the IP routing.  The problem persists even the firewall and other protections are closed     My question is rather evident:  which service should be started (or stop) in order to settle this problem and have it  respond to  its numerical IP  and  http://localhost    Thank you very much in advance for your help

    I'm able to telnet 64.235.209.83 80 with no issues.  I would review the bindings on your website to ensure it's listening on port 80 "All Unassigned" ip addresses.  From what I can see, it's working from the outside with no issues.

    Did you ever find out what is wrong with your problem?

    I have the same scenario and troubleshooting why I can't access my server web pages by IP address user Server 2008, IIS 7.0.

    Can you post your bindings section in the applicationHost.config.  For example this is my Default WebSite web.

            <sites>
                <site name="Default Web Site" id="1">
                    <application path="/">
                        <virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="%SystemDrive%\inetpub\wwwroot" />
                    </application>
                    <bindings>
                        <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:80:" />
                        <binding protocol="net.tcp" bindingInformation="808:*" />
                        <binding protocol="net.pipe" bindingInformation="*" />
                        <binding protocol="net.msmq" bindingInformation="localhost" />
                        <binding protocol="msmq.formatname" bindingInformation="localhost" />
                    </bindings>
                    <traceFailedRequestsLogging enabled="false" directory="c:\temp" />
                    <limits maxBandwidth="1024" />
                </site>

    Thank you very much Steve. Apparently,  changing the bonding to "All unassigned" ip address, as you suggested,  corrected the situation.

    It took me some time though to understand the meaning of the "with no issues". 

    For the moment thus my machine is online.   

    Thank you again

    PS  I would surely like to learn how to obtain a structured tree of my applicationHost.config  so that you can examine it.

    I'm not sure what you mean by a structured tree of the config file.  The administration pack for IIS 7 has a configuration manager module that allows you to see bits and pieces of the config at a time.  It's quite handy.
