Can someone please help me? Please help me to resolve this issue.

Do you have proper credentials?
Do you have any conflicting software, such as antivirus running?
Are you trying to record a 64 bit browser with a 32 bit application?
You should probably grab the software requirements for your version of loadrunner and cross check your environment against the software requirements as this cross check resolves over 90% of recording issues

Publish webpage using IIS

I am trying to create a webpage that will be available for my team members. From my personal laptop.
Today i created a basic page using following tutorial.
https://www.interserver.net/tips/kb/how-to-create-website-in-iis/
But when i tried to open the page from another pc...
It didnt work.
I have added port 80 in firewall setting.
When i tried to open using my mobile.it worked. Because my laptop is connected to mobile hotspot.
But showing error as site cant be reach on outside devices.
Please help me.
Do i need to do port forwarding??? If yes then how can i do it on mobile?
As right now i can use only mobile hotspot
.
Pc OS : windows 10.
I have enabled IIS using windows feature
Is it necessary to install windows server? To be able to publish page to outside user?
It is unnecessary to install windows server to host websites. IIS also works in Windows Client OS.
If your mobile could access the website correctly, there are might be something wrong with network connectivity causing the failure of accessing the webpage from other PC. We should ensure that the other PC is in the same network with the webserver(your laptop), just like the network of your mobile.
I advise other PC to join the mobile hotspot too. Following shutting the firewall and access the website by using the IP address again.
Considering the Ping tool to troubleshoot the network issue.

Login Issue, When connected to Proxy

I wanna do security testing using Owasp Zap tool, I connected chrome browser & Zap tool with Proxy Server. When I tried to Login into my application, I got log in error. I'm able to load the URL still not able to log in. Kindly provide me a suggestion on this issue.
I'm afraid you'll need to supply a lot more information than that - it could be any number of problems.
To start with, what is the error reported?

SharePoint Designer: Error when connecting to my customer production server

Every time I try to connect to any SharePoint site running on my customer server I get the following error.
An error occurred accessing your Microsoft SharePoint Foundation site
files. Authors - if authoring against a Web server, please contact the
Webmaster for this server's Web site. WebMasters - please see the
server's application event log for more details.
I already checked the sharepoint options in CA and in every site in the mentioned server. Everything seens correct but the error persists.
It looks like there is no direct relation to SharePoint and something else in the server but I was not able to determine what could cause such behaviour.
Hope someone here has something to say.
Well... After a very long and painful headache we were able to find out what was causing this malfunction.
It was a .net agent from New Relic. This agent is used to analyse traffic, page load time and some other cool things. It basicly add some javascript to the head session of every response our IIS make and this code send some data to New Relic servers that will be processed to build some reports about the applications running in the IIS.
In the end, I just disabled it and SPD turned back to life.
Thanks.
PS: Boland was in the right path. I were able to find out the solution using Fiddler to analyse the responses from IIS. Thanks.
You have to check the event log. Do you see any error there? If not, it must be a network issue. Firewall is rare, because SPD works on TCP/80.

Scripting issue in loadrunner

I have installed LR 11.5 in Windows XP Service Pack 3 machine.
I tried to record a web application but no events are being recorded and nothing can be seen in the script except the transactions given by us manually.
Then I tried by recording the usual search in "[google.com]" through IE 8, but here the events were not generated during recording and nothing was recorded in the script.
Where might the problem lie? Why can't we record a simple google.com through LR 11.5 in IE 8?
[connecting through a "VPN"]
does the registry have the following key?
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows]
"AppInit_DLLs"="\bin\bbhook.dll"
Check for Protocols of your web application.
First, run your web application through Protocol Advisor and select those protocol while creating a New Script.
Before going to record a web application first you need to check whether the recording options are correct or not.
Note: After recording a business scenario, if events are not recorded then you can go to recording options then change port mapping capturing level to "Both like socket and wininet level".
Might as well regenerate events.

Loadrunner and security issues

Accessing an application manually works fine, creating a manual script with web_add_header works fine, but when just hitting record in vugen with the http protocol the webpage gets "page cannot be displayed".
What can cause this? I assume it has something to do with security?
Can I change some settings in vugen to make this work?
I don't know that this will solve your problem, but I have seen somewhat similar behavior when dealing with security certificates on SSL enable pages. Try installing or re-installing the security certificate for the site in IE before you try recording the script.
Take a look at your credentials in the system and your browser vendor/version. Make sure that you have admin rights and that you are using a 32 bit browser (VUGEN is a 32 bit application) is one supported for your version of LoadRunner
