How to monitor what IP's are connected to my domain - web

Greetings,
I currently have a website.
How could I trace the IP that is currently accessing my website?
Could I also trace to what URL of my website they are accessing?
Thanks,
Cyril H.

I think providing a little more information about your website would be good. What type of server is it? Apache, perhaps?

If you are using a Windows server with IIS, open up your IIS Manager, and view the logs for the site in question.
If you are running a *nix box, it would all depend on what web server you have installed, I will assume that its apache, so you could check the apache conf file where the logs are located. Most installations I have seen they are in /var/log/apache2/ or something similar to /var/log/httpd etc;
Then you simply view the files. By default most web servers log requests (access) and errors (failed requests, 404 files/pages).
Should give you all the details you mentioned. But it depends on what you have running.

Website not running when I shift to another server

Our website not running on new server Tour website we have 2 servers one of them the site working good, we have moved the portal to other server, so when we point the dns it is not working...Web not working and then you can see the panel of that server in second imageCWP web control panel I need the solution, kindly give the proper solution...
You are using CentOS Web panel as the hosting control panel. While browsing the website check the apache error logs on the server at path
/usr/local/apache/logs/
and those logs will give you idea of whats happening.

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.

not able to access mywebsite in webbrowser

my website opens with xx.xxx.xxx.xxx IP address till friday it was working fine..after wards not able view the site in webbrowser...what could be the problem ? how can we solve it?
My server with this IP is working and can able to view the updated data in database ..but not able to view, or open the page of website.before the website under IIS configuration was stooped and now started again..still no use..am couldnt view Login page at all.My application was developed in classic asp long back.Kindly give me any suggestion to this...its very urgent...
I tried browsing the website in IIS manger(server) .It showing page cannot be displayed.
Thanks in advance.
First, Don't Panic. Staying calm can avoid further damage.
While it's hard to tell what could be the problem, the first thing you can do is to "ping" the domain from terminal.Can you login remotely? "wget" (on linux) will download the files from website, and could help you see if the files on the site are still accessible. Check from different browsers or machines, if possible. I'm no expert in asp or IIS, so won't advice on that front. But once I had faced the same situation with my website. So I just called up the hosting service provider, and it turned out it was their problem, and they brought the server online. If it's okay from their end, you might have changed some configurations in your server or application or there might be some up-gradation changing parameters, or even an accidental deletion/ moving/ renaming of files. Just try to remember what are the things you did with your server and application, before it went down, and also ask your server administrator. That will surely help you understand the problem better, if not help to solve it right away.
Good Luck.

.htaccess - is only for PHP?

I am working on one website which is developed in .net. I have uploaded .htaccess files but its nt working.
Is there any new idea for that? I want that my site will be crawled with www.
Thanks
.htaccess is not just for PHP.
It's a configuration file that's read by the Apache HTTP server. So if your application is not running on that server, then that file will not have any effect.
.htaccess and PHP are orthogonal. One is a configuration file for Apache; the other is a scripting language. More than likely, you're using Microsoft's IIS server, not Apache.
The .htaccess file is a configuration file for the Apache web server, and is not dependant on PHP. It typically contains settings relating to web site user permissions, friendly URL definitions, etc.
It can, however contain configuration settings for PHP, if you have settings which are in the server's PHP.ini file that you want to override for this specific web directory.
There are many reasons why a .htaccess file may not work -- it can be broken by some very subtle things, and a faulty .htaccess file will normally cause the whole site to stop working completely, regardless of what the error is.
In this case, the browser will usually simply show an error 500, without much useful information to help you debug it. But there will be more helpful debugging data in the server error log.
If you still struggle with it, you should post your .htaccess file here so we can help you debug it.
However, as #Tomalk says, if you're developing a .NET site then you're probably not using an Apache web server; you're probably using an IIS server. In that case, there are entirely different ways of setting the configuration for the server, and it won't know what to do with .htaccess file.

Is there a website level setting in IIS that would prevent an ASP page from being served?

Trying to copy a website to a new server as the old one is dying. :(
I tried copying over the files and setting it up manually, but some specific user accounts needed to be used and the guy who set all this up left the company nearly 5 years ago. And is even worse at documentation than I am.
Anyway, at that point the ASP pages were serving, but getting errors. Ok, fine... I went back and exported the configuration from the old server (lucky that worked at all) and created a new website from that config on the new server. On the new website, from the config file, the ASP pages are giving 404 errors.
The Active Server Pages extension is enabled, and I can actually get the asp pages to serve from another website on the server... so I'm thinking it's something at the website level. No idea what though.
Any ideas?
Back when I was doing classic ASP development we used Parent Paths. This is at the top of your ASP file you'll see something like;
<!--#include file="../../resource/includes/MSSQLconnection.asp"-->
This isn't enabled by default in IIS. It may not be answer but worth looking at. But was a long time ago now.
Hope this helps,
Mike
404 is a file not found error.
Start by checking you can access a 'hello world' HTML file in the folder using http: //localhost/path/toyour/HelloWorldFile.htm
Hello World
is all you need in the file = you don't need to bother with any HTML markup to test what we're interested in.
This will check that your virtual directories, application settings etc are correct before you move on to the Active Server Page settings.
Once you've got your paths sorted out and you know you are looking for your application in the correct place move on to a 'hello world' ASP file
<%="Hello World"%>
is all you need in that file!
You ask about settings in IIS which will stop ASP from working. These come to mind as the most obvious.
Depending on the OS (or more specifically the IIS version) you may also need to activate ASP pages.
These instructions from msdn cover Windows 2003 (IIS6) and Windows 2008(IIS 7.x)
If you can get your hello world script working you can move on to debugging your application.
It will be a great help when debugging the application if you can see what's going wrong so I recommend that you turn off friendly error messages if you are using Internet Explorer. Also set IIS to pass error messages on to the browser
see:
http: //learn.iis.net/page.aspx/564/classic-asp-script-error-messages-no-longer-shown-in-web-browser-by-default/ --excuse the link formatting but SO's newbies can't post more than 2 hyperlinks in a message was getting in the way of me trying to be helpful and earning enough rep to post more!
(that may only be relevant to IIS 7.x I don't have an IIS6 installation lying around to refresh my memory.
Make sure you are browsing your application on the server using http: //localhost - this should ensure you see any errors
Good luck
