qbernard:

Any error msgs during turn on/off the IIS component?
And when you fire up IIS Manager, you got nothing? no app pool, default website /etc.

You may want to uninstall iis and reinstall it, doesn't sound like its default settings are correct.

I apologize, usually I double and triple check the answers given by the experts but I guess this time I asked an extra question to soon. With the tools provided in the previous posts I was able to come across a PCHelpware process that was grabbing control of port 443 before IIS. Thanks for your reply anilr. And rest of forum.

What exactly is running in process-id 1080?

The redirect site listed above works fine. I can connect to that just fine but the first site does not.

After using some of the suggestions here I have found that process 0 is the process that is tied to port 443 which i am trying to free up so that my iis part of my exchange server can run. This process is part of the system idle processes and I really don't want to kill that process. Not sure how to move forward from here.

type netstat -ano and see the PID numbers. Open task manager and see what process is using it.

I am having the same problem and getting the same error as most are talking about on here. Tried all suggestions and found the only thing using port 80 is 127.0.0.1 which would be my localhost I believe. Anyways, would this cause the error I am getting? I'm trying to learn some stuff about IIS as we haven't had any coursework yet in web development for my MIS degree. I have port forwarding setup on my router for port 80, and don't think this would be causing the error. Any suggestions?

So there you go.. that cimlistener program is conflicting with the port you using.

You can either use other port say 8080, 8081 which not so commonly used by others. or if you are using server OS, setup multiple site with single IP on the same port 80 via different host header.. google for more info.
