Hello Guys,

I'm trying to get DNN install at the company i work at, we are going to use it for an Intranet system. Now i've got an windows server 2k running with DNN installed as a website. (I've had to put it on a different port as my Default website page runs on 80 with some other sites im running).  Set up:

Now the first problem is that DNN or IIS (not sure which) isn't prefixing the :8080 to all pages: EG if i click the "Login" link from the Home page, the address removes the PORT extension and no page is displayed because it cannot find that link (for obvious reasons)

As you can see the :8080 wasnt added

thats my first problem, im wondering if its a a DNN configuration?

my second problem is accessing the DNN page from other machines for example:

if i try and access http://iisserver:8080/Default.aspx or http://iisserver:8080 from another computer (that clearly has access to iisserver) i redirected to the "new iis server install page",  which is the iis server thats on my client machine (this happens on all computer i try it on)

but my Default Website i have on the iisserver does work for example...  (Its has if it doesnt like the :8080 port and is redirecting to the local iis installation on the winxp machine

Kind regards,

Mike

You don't mention what version of DNN you're using? Recent versions (at least v4.8 that I saw) has a setting in the web.config for using a non-standard port.

I also remmember seeing a post months ago regarding (well before v4.8) that had instructions on much the same thing.

Hi Mike,

I have the same problem regarding the browser redirect to the local IIS server start page (http://localhost/localstart.asp) the) when I access the portal from an XP client.

Did you find a solution - or can somebody else help with this?

Thanks - Juergen
