 I have an issue where I have installed DNN in IIS and it all works when I do http://localhost/dotnetnuke but not outside of  the local network.  I know the first thing people are going to say is that it is not a DNN issue and to resolve it w/ a static IP and point to my machine or use no-ip.com redirect.....but I actually have set up no-ip.com and my domain to redirect to another port since my ISP blocks port 80 and whenever I put a default.aspx that contains "hello world!" as my default document in C:\inetpub\wwwroot I can see it from outside of my machine / local network when going to mydomain.com.  But whenever I try to to go to mydomain.com/dotnetnuke, it does not work... it tries to bring up http://localhost/dotnetnuke instead of my dynamic IP address through no-ip.com redirect.  I am curious as to if there is a setting I am missing or what the deal is and why I am experiencing this issue.  

Also, is it possible to make an application a "default document", so instead of typing http://localhost/dotnetnuke one can just type http://localhost and get the same thing?

 

Thanks in advance!

 The issue is resolved and it had to do with the connection string.... I just had to get the right configuration for my server and specify a TCP port for SQL Server Express.  After that was resolved, the only issue was not being able to go to anything besides the first page....whenever I tried to login I got a 404 error.  This was resolved by an earlier post that changes the humanfriendly option in friendlyURL to searchFriendly.

<friendlyUrl defaultProvider="DNNFriendlyUrl">

      <providers>

        <clear />

        <add name="DNNFriendlyUrl" type="DotNetNuke.Services.Url.FriendlyUrl.DNNFriendlyUrlProvider, DotNetNuke.HttpModules" includePageName="true" regexMatch="[^a-zA-Z0-9 _-]" urlFormat="searchfriendly" />
