Page keeps loading forever - iis

Im using IIS 8.5 on Windows Server 2012 R2 so I add my Web Api but when I try to view the site it stays in a loading state like this:
Do not show any message or error just stays loading, I think that i miss some configuration or feature in my IIS but I don't know which one.
Edit: I use .Net framework, it is a REST .net web api like this reference, the IIS have installed .Net versions 3.5 and 4.5, it's IIS not the express and the default IIS website runs fine.
I would really appreciate any help.

Try to reduce the timeout settings to a minimum level, say 10 seconds.
See if it throws a Timeout error.
Without much information from your side its hard to judge.
Perhaps it could be an external service you are trying to access(Web service) or a DB connection?

Please check if the application pool you assigned to your solutions runs under the correct version of .net framework and in integrated mode. I had similar issues when trying to run an mvc app in classic mode. Check this out.
EDIT 1 - Reconfiguring IIS
If problems persists then try the ASP.NET IIS Registration tool. Execute the followig command as administrator:
aspnet_regiis -i
At the end of this post the different locations for aspnet_regiis are described. You should select a .NET Framework version corresponding to that of your project, run aspnet_regiis and assign the proper application pool to your app.

How to host a asp.net core MVC app in IIS?

I am familiar with .Net in general but new to ASP.Net Core. I just had my first "self-hosted" ASP.Net Core MVC app running (created using templet and runs under Kestrel by default) . What I would like to do now it to host it in-process with IIS. But what I am struggling with is that I couldn't seem to find a clear and detailed instruction/document about what I need to do to get it to work. I have tried various configuration changes on my own but nothing works so far. I am running .Net Core 3.1 and using VS.Net 2019 on my Windows 10 environment. If someone could point me to the right direction it would be highly appreciated.
As far as I know, if you want to host the asp.net core application on the IIS. You should make sure you have installed the right hosting bundle.
Notice: No matter you use in-process or out-of-process, you all need install the IIS hosting bundle.
More details about how to install it, you could refer to this link.
After install the link, you could check your IIS module to make sure you have installed the right asp.net core module.
Then you could use VS to publish the application to right folder and create the IIS web site as below:
Create IIS website:

IIS does not start .net core 1.0 executable

so after .net core 1.0 got published I started a new console project and imported the code from a small prototype that is supposed to run without IIS. Besides having to use net46 in my project.json due the not-yet updated MongoDB.Driver, that worked fine. When I build the app in Visual Studio a small App.exe with a lot of dll is build and can be run fine locally without IIS.
I then noticed the option to build for IIS Express and thought that I can use the IIS on our server (IIS 6.2, Windows Server 2012 R2) too. It publishes fine with WebDeploy, but nothing happens after that. I was following this official guide. I installed the .NET core Windows Server Hosting bundle and everything appears to be in order, but when I browse to the url, I get a ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED. Theapp.exedoes not appear in the Task Manager and I can't find any log file, although it is enabled in theweb.config. I can execute the app manually, but then it only listens on the defaultlocalhost:5000` address.
If I understood it correctly, the IIS is supposed to act as a reverse-proxy to the dotnet tool which starts a dll, but in my case it's already a compiled exe that works standalone. But I can't figure out how to build a dll from this app..
What am I doing wrong?
If you target full .NET Framework the application will be .exe and not .dll and it is fine. ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED indicates that the url you provided in your browser could not be resolved and the request to the application was not made. AspNet Core Module starts the application on the first request and because the host could not be resolved the request was not made and the application was not started. Once you figure out why the name could not be resolved and you still have issues with making your application work with IIS take a look at my post which explains how things work and how to troubleshoot issues. This, however, only applies after the request can reach your application.

HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found (.Net 4)

I've just got a new server setup on Windows 2008 Web edition. I'm trying to set the first asp.net 4 application up on it but am having nothing but problems.
The latest is that I'm getting the 404.17 error, which says "the requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.".
I've done a lot of research on google but most suggestions seem to be to run aspnet_regiis -i to install asp.net 4. I've done this several times both on the Framework and Framework64 folders, but with no success.
I tried changing from the default application pool to a .net4 application pool, which appeared to work at first and I instead got a server error to do with permissions. I fixed that, and immediately the 404.17 error returned.
Other suggestions I've read say to go into the "turn windows features on and off" and make sure .net 4 is selected there under IIS. However on this server clicking "turn windows features on and off" takes me to the standard windows 2008 server manager. I click "add features" there, and only ".NET Framework 3.0 Features (Installed)" is listed and selected. .NET 4 isn't shown there, yet it is selectable through the application pools.
What else can I try to get the website running as I'm at a complete loss now. Its annoying because my old server was easy to manage - I did it all through the server itself without a control panel (Windows 2003), now on my new server I have to manage most of it through Plesk because there is no dns.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I too had the same problem but solved it with simple solution. My program was in framework 4.0 but in application pool was mapped to framework 2.0.
Just changed the frame work in application pool to 4.0.
It worked.
I've finally figured out the problem, and it was to do with Plesk itself.
After delving through some of the thousands of links throughout the plesk control panel I found a page for "Website Scripting and Security". Under there it was set to .NET 2.0. However, even though I'd installed .NET 4 on the server, Plesk didn't know about it. Although the application pool I'd set the website to run under through IIS was .NET 4, it still wouldn't work for some reason.
I then found another page under "tools and settings" for server components, and on that page is a refresh button. Hit that and it suddenly realised that .NET 4 was installed, went back to the website scripting and security page, selected .NET 4, and hey presto, I got a server error (never have I been so glad to see a server error).
I then just had to give the application pool identity read access to the web folder, and the website worked.
I wish I'd paid an extra £15 per month for Windows 2008 Standard edition now so I could manage it all manually without Plesk.
Ensure that you are running this application under a Virtual Directory, also ensure that your IIS has ASP, ASP.Net, ISAPI Extensions And Filters, Static Content installed.
Change the .net framework from 'plesk' panel:
go to Domains
select then domain
Go to 'Domain and Websites & Domains'
Hide Advanced Operations
Go to 'Asp.net Settings'
Go to 'Change Version'
select 4.0
If you don't have the 4.0 option then you must install the framework on your server first.

Can't find IIS AppPool Identity

I have a Win 2008 R2 Enterprise machine that is running fine several websites each one with its own app pool.
I have no troubles giving permissions (using windows GUI) to IIS AppPool\A, IIS AppPool\B, etc... But today I have created one more app pool "C" and I can't find it in the GUI nor using icacls command. I'm trying to give permissions in a folder to IIS AppPool\C but it says it can't find! I'm including built-in security principals in the search and if I type any of the existing app pool identities windows finds then Ok. The problem is just with this new one.
Does anyone knows what is going on?
I don't know if it is reladed but the only change made to this server was to enable .net 3.5 WCF Activation for http and non-http. After enabling this, I got error in all my .net 4 sites and fixed by running aspnet_regiis.exe /iru as described here http://devonenote.com/2010/06/could-not-load-type-system-servicemodel-activation-httpmodule .
Turns out you need to start the associated IIS application for the first time before you can see your application pool in the windows GUI!

How to register ASP.NET 2.0 to web server(IIS7)?

I have a web-page application already created, but when I open it in visual studio 2008, it says there that:
ASP.NET 2.0 has not been registered on the Web Server. You need to
manually configure you Web server for ASP.NET 2.0 in order for your
site to run correctly.
I'm using asp.net 2.0, IIS7 and running on vista home premium.
How to register ASP.NET 2.0 to my web server(IIS7)?
ASP .NET 2.0:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -ir
ASP .NET 4.0:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -ir
Run Command Prompt as Administrator to avoid the ...requested operation requires elevation error
aspnet_regiis.exe should no longer be used with IIS7 to install ASP.NET
Open Control Panel
Programs\Turn Windows Features on or off
Internet Information Services
World Wide Web Services
Application development Features
ASP.Net <== check mark here
If anyone like me is still unable to register ASP.NET with IIS.
You just need to run these three commands one by one in command prompt
cd c:\windows\Microsoft.Net\Framework\v2.0.50727
after that, Run
aspnet_regiis.exe -i -enable
and Finally Reset IIS
iisreset
Hope it helps the person in need... cheers!
If you installed IIS after the .Net framework you can solve the porblem by re-installing the .Net framework. Part of its install detects whether IIS is present and updates IIS accordingly.
Open Control Panel
- Programs
- Turn Windows Features on or off
expand - Internet Information Services
expand - World Wide Web Services
expand - Application development Features
check - ASP.Net
Its advisable you check other feature to avoid future problem that might not give direct error messages

The system I was working on is Windows Server 2008 Standard with IIS 7 (I guess that my experience will apply for all Windows systems of the same age).
Running
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -ir
SEEMED to work, as
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -lv
showed the .Net framework v4 registered with IIS.
But, running the same for .Net v2, namely
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -ir
did NOT result in
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -lv
showing the framework registered.
(And, for me, the installer for Kofax Capture Network Server was still missing ASP.NET.)
The solution was:
Open Server Manager
Go to Roles/Web Server (IIS)
Push Add Role Services
check ASP.NET under Application Development (and press Install)
After that, aspnet_regiis.exe -lv (either version) shows the framework registered.
(And the Kofax installer was also happy and worked.)
I got it resolved by doing Repir on .NET framework Extended, in Add/Remove program ;
Using win2008R2, .NET framework 4.0
