  Hi Ho!

   

  I must install my web project in a specified website on IIS.

  I've tried this and has stoppt all my websites but the one in which I want to install my web project in IIS.

  Even so the setup installs it in the first site that is found, whatever it is stopped or not.

  What the hell is wrong?

  It is a Win2000 Server with IIS 5

  Interesting - this has worked for me that last several times I tried it.

  I've used this with a Windows 2000 Standard Server and IIS 5, as you mentioned, so that isn't it.

  Are you installing to the root, or a precreated virtual directory?

  It has worked for me in both cases - I'm just trying to isolate the issue.

  How are you stopping IIS? I was just doing it from the Internet Information Services Manager.

  Are you using Visual Studio .NET 2002 or 2003? I wonder if that makes a difference. I'm using 2003. I don't recall if I used this with the earlier version of VS .NET or not.

  Hi, thanx

   

  I'm using VS.NET 2003 for Development.

  On the target server I have installed the Framework 1.1, Win2000 SP4

  I have triet to install it to the root, precreated and not precreated virtual directory.

  The other websites I have stoppt by using the system management console / Internet Informationservices.

  On each website there are two items in Right-Clickmenu. I don't know how they are called in an english Windows-version. In german it is "Anhalten" and "Beenden" - may be, its called "pause" and "stop" in english. I have tried both.

  Well, this is certainly odd. That is exactly what I do - and it works for me! I usually use "Stop" and not "pause", but since you tried both, there's no relief there.

  Are you saying that you are using a non-English version of Windows? I wonder if that is the difference. If so, that would be really bad!

  How are the multiple websites distinguished by users accessing the sites? I mean, are they each tied to a different port, or are you using host headers, or something else?

  Uh... that is difficult for me to answer. 

   

  In my TCP/IP Configuration are three different IPs.

  No settings for DNS Server.

  each IP points to one website. No Hostheaders.

  Oh sure - take the obvious approach!

  Well, I'm running out of ideas. About the only thing I can think of is that it has to do with a non-English version of Windows, if that is what you are using.

  I have a virtual machine set-up where I was using this approach - if I get a chance later today I'll run through it again in case there is something I missed that I just am not remembering now. If I learn anything new, I'll let you know. And if you learn anything new, please post it here - I certainly want to make sure I'm providing accurate information on coolbits.

  Thanks!

  Ok, I will see.

  thanx a lot for help  

• Klabauter 06 Feb

  OK. I don't exactly know why this is necessary.

  If I change the IP-Setting of EACH website on IIS to nothing (all IPs), it works like it is described on Top.

   

  So, for each installation, first I must reset all these IP-assignments, stop all websites but the one in which I want to install it, execute the installation and finally change the IP-settings to the original status.

   

  may be, this is only in my german Windows version? 

   

  really creepy.

  Interesting! I'm glad you were (finally) able to get it to work, although I'm disappointed that you had to also change the IP addresses. That seems like one more step that shouldn't be necessary.

  I will admit, however, that the last time I used this trick, none of the IP addresses were set, so perhaps it only works in that situation. That would be too bad. Of course, if you had to go to the trouble of stopping your website anyway, temporarily changing the IP addresses, while stupid, isn't that much worse (if we are only talking about a couple of sites).

  I've had to do write some code recently that uses ADSI to communicate with IIS. I may have to sit down and write some custom installer code that allows you to select the website. If I ever get around to doing that, I'll make sure to post it here (because this whole process is ridiculous!)

  Glad you got it working!
