hello,
i've a web site running on windows xp prof. with iis 6.0 . works fine on
standard port 80 but if change it to e.g. 8060 the site comes up with "IE
cannot display the webpage". (starting with: http://localhost/app:8060)
can anyone tell me the right way ...
thx.
To run IIS on a non-standard port:
- Open IIS Manager
- Right click the website and click Properties
- Change the field "TCP Port" to the port you want to use
- Make whatever changes needed in the firewall or other device that could
stop the request from going to the webserver.
- Access the website using the port number.
I just did these steps on a Windows XP machine and it worked fine to
access the website on port 8060. If it does not work for you, please type
this in a command prompt:
netstat -ano
Is something listening on port 8060? If so, look up the PID in task
manager to verify that IIS is listening on this port.

Thanks for responding so quickly ...
the steps you describe are that what i made but it didn't work.
maybe some additional info will help ..
- firewall (internal XP/SP2) is off
- output of netstat -ano shows me a listening TCP 0.0.0.0:8060 port and the
listening process is inetinfo.exe

Your URL is wrong, it should be
http://localhost:8060/app
port number always follows the host name
