[Question] Switch from express to IIS version (2 Viewers)

[megahorst]

Hello,
I want to switch my WebMediaPortal version from IISExpress to IIS because I want to setup a second webpage on the server.
I'm running Windows 7 pro.

What I have done:
Uninstall the IIS-Express and IIS Express
Do the prerequisites and the preconfiguration as they are described in the WIKI.
Install MPExtended IIS Vs.
Set the application pool to true.

Now I have a problem.

The WIKI says I have to enter the physical path. But where do I have to enter it?
In the screenshoot in the WIKI there is a MPExtended entry under "Default Web site". I don't have this entry. Have I missed something?

I have managed it ...
right click on "Default Website" then "Add application"

But know I have to go to <MyDomain>/MPExtended to open Webmediaportal.
With the IIS Express Version I had to type <MyDomain>:8080. Is there a way to change this?

Normaly you should be able to change the "Bindings" of your Site. (Right Click on your Site an select "Edit Bindings")

Thx!
I'm totally new to IIS. In apache I have done this by chreating a virtual host.
Can anybody give me a hint what I have to add here?

Right Click on your Site "MPExtended" on the left and select "Edit Bindings". For IP Enter "*" and Port "8080". Typ is HTTP and leave Hostname empty.

That should do it.

Thx, I will try this evening.
I'm not the master of IIS but my understanding of this setting is that this will lead to <my-domain>/MPExtended reachable on port 8080?
Or does <my-domain>:8080 lead also to my MPExtended then?

<my-domain>:8080 should work then. But you have to make shure that there is no other site with * and Port 8080....

 

[megahorst]

It did not work or I have misunderstood it ...

I have configured this:

Then:
<mydomain>/MPExtended -> works (the port 80 binding)
<mydomain>:8080/mpextended -> works (the port 8080 binding)

<mydomain>:8080 -> does not work leads to IIS Logo
Is there a way to let this working?

 

[Brudertac]

Hm. Have you do the rightclick on "sites" and then click edit bindings or rightclick on mpextended?

You need to change the binding for mpextened.

You need to change the binding for mpextened.

On MPEXtended Level I don't the a bindings option.

I have done it here:

I suppose that this is the problem:

But when creating the application I do have to give an alias. I have named it MPExtended.
