在Azure VM上远程访问IIS Express托管的网站

Question

I have Visual Studio solution running in Debug mode using IIS Express on an Azure Virtual Machine.

I can RDP into this machine using its domain:

myapp.cloudapp.net:port#

IIS Express is running:

localhost:2799

I have also created an End Point using HTTP, mapping public port 80 to 2799.

But the URL http://myapp.cloudapp.net does not connect or relay through to the webpage running at localhost:2799. Is there something else that needs to be done to make this happen?

Answer 1

I believe that the only thing you need to modify - is to add new rule in your firewall to open port 2799. Try to disable firewall and check whether the website available. If the page is shown - add appropriate rules to firewall.

Answer 2

There are three changes you might need to make.

1.Tell IIS Express itself to bind to all ip addresses and hostnames. In your .config file (typically %userprofile%\\My Documents\\IISExpress\\config\\applicationhost.config, or $(solutionDir).vs\\config\\applicationhost.config for Visual Studio 2015), find your site's binding element, and add :

   <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:2799:*" />

2. Setup the bit of Windows called 'http.sys'. As an administrator, run the command:

   netsh http add urlacl url=http://*:2799/ user=everyone

3. Allow IIS Express through Windows firewall. Start / Windows Firewall with Advanced Security / Inbound Rules / New Rule... Program %ProgramFiles%\\IIS Express\\iisexpress.exe OR Port 2799 TCP

Now when you start iisexpress.exe you should see a message such as

Successfully registered URL "http://*:2799/" for site "myapp" application "/" 

This configuration combined with your endpoint mapping should do the trick Hope this helps Best regards Stéphane
