Is it possible to run more than one website on IIS 5.1 (Windows XP)?
I'm able to create multiple websites through adminscripts in IIS, but only one website can be active at a time.
Is there is any workaround, trick, or script for this limitation?
Thanks,
As far as I know, you can only have one active at any one time, but see this link by Jeff for more info on how to uncripple IIS.
Check the Port No for each website you created, By default you get port no 80. But here if you dont have Host Headers for the Application then you have to create Each website with each port no like 80, 8080, 8081...etc and try.

In Windows 10 IIS and Xampp use the same port (80), I've learned. I know how to change port in Xampp, but I'd prefere to stop IIS while using Xampp. On my old computer with Windows 10 I went to task manager > services and stopped World Wide Web Services by rightclicking. On my new computer with Windows 10, I can't seem to find World wide web services on that spot. Can it be named something else, according to language (swedish - though before on the old computer it was named as mentioned)? Any other way (in simple steps, please - beginner!) to stop IIS using the port, without disabling the IIS alltogether? (might want to learn how to use it later on)
Thanks in advance!
Port 80 is used by default with many web servers (here IIS and Apache which is bundled inside XAMPP).
The default web site created with IIS uses port 80. If you don't want to use this default web site (absolutely no harm and no data loss!), you can delete it by running the following command in inetsrv directory (path would generally be C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv).
appcmd delete site "Default Web Site"
Or you can change the port for the default web site in IIS, with:
appcmd set site /site.name: "Default Web Site" /+bindings.protocol='http',bindingInformation='*:8000:']
appcmd set site /site.name: "Default Web Site" /-bindings.protocol='http',bindingInformation='*:80:']
(8000) is for instance, use any high number you like.
I have two websites, Website1 and Website2.
Website1 is assigned bindings of (server ip):80 and Website2 is assigned bindings of (server ip):4565. No host names have been defined.
Website1 which uses port 80 works fine, I can access the website from any pc in the world with a decent browser using http://(server ip):80. I cannot, however, do the same for http://(server ip):4565 (Website2).
I've searched and searched for solutions but nothing seems to work.
Why is this?
P.S. I am not all that experienced with IIS or server management in general.
you need to do site bindings. have you done that?

I have IIS installed with asp.net 4.0. I've managed to get my site showing on a static ip address and port forwarding is set up on my router but for some reason the site is still only showing locally and not on only external networks. Is there any obvious causes for this. I'm pretty new to IIS and have looked for hours so far to try and find out why I can access my site externally.
Currently the page just times out on external networks.
Any help would be great, thanks in advance.
I worked out it was because I was pointing from my domain to the local IP and not Public IP, worked fine once I changed this.
This sounds like an issue with your network configuration rather than an IIS issue.
Here's a few things to try:
Can you access the website from another machine on the same network?
Is port 80 open on your router?
Verify that your ISP is not blocking inbound requests on port 80
I am completely new bie to IIS.
I have a very basic knowledge about how to configure IIS.
Today I have a requirement to access website Globally through WAN (through internet from any PC all over world) which I have deployed in my Local IIS.
The website=> SilverLightBusinessApplicationWeb
which you can see in my below screen shot can be open in LAN nicely.
so I only looking for how to open it in WAN?
So anybody please suggest me a simple steps or instruction for it.
You can see two screen shot of Internet Information Service (IIS) Manager.
NOTE: 1. I also have static IP 2. i am using IIS7.0 with Windows-7
Thank you so much…..

This question is probably better off on ServerFault. However, providing you have everything set up on your machine, you just need to open and forward port 80 to your host machine and set up a domain or access the site directly via external IP providing your bindings are set up correctly.
EDIT From a security point of view, it would be better practice to do as Germann said by having your public facing web server in its own DMZ.
Finally i have got it........
the steps i have followed are......
define port forwarding at router for that i have enter following values in my router's forwarding page.
--IP address of my PC
--port number which is open(you can see screen shot Brouse*:80(http) which shows port 80
is open for website on my IIS.
finally i have opened website on my IIS by : .http://mystaticip:port/xyzfolder/xyz.html.
I have an internal facing webserver with various apps running inside the default website on port 443 (SSL).
I wanted to install MOSS 2007 on the same server and rum a portal/collaboration app using the same port 443. I was under the impression that if you use host headers, you can do that. It turns out it is not the case. Sharepoint installation automatically stops the default web site.
I've been searching for a solution for a while and I can't believe this is not a common issue. Is there a solution to this?
Thanks,
EJM
There isn't a way to use host headers to run multiple SSL sites on IIS under normal circumstances. To run multiple SSL sites on the same server, you would need to give them separate IP addresses.
It looks like this might also be a solution, but I've never tried it.
It is possible using command line configuration, see
