Configuring IISExpress as default web server for multiple TFS workspaces in VS2013

I am trying to configure VS2013 so that IISExpress works in a similar way to the builtin web server (Cassini) in VS2010.
For the past year or so, I have worked with multiple local TFS workspaces for a web site which all map the same TFS branch. When running the web site, the solution sets a default port which is used if I only have one VS 2010 instance in use. If I use multiple
instances, a new random port is assigned, but the instance works fine and I can debug both sessions without problem.
Having installed VS2013, the 'internal' web server is no longer provided, so I have to use IISExpress. I cannot figure out how to configure this to work the same way as the server in VS2010.
As far a I can tell, IISExpress always uses the workspace folders on the first site specified in the applicationhost.config file. If I create a second site, it seems to be ignored and the second instance uses the files in the first set of folders!
Reading elsewhere, it seems it might be possible to get IISExpress to use a second workspace folder by editing the config file every time, but (a) this is tedious and (b) something, probably IISExpress, rewrites the file at various times, so it's not clear
whether changes would persist. 
I can't believe I'm the only developer using VS2013 who regularly will be working on a new feature for a website and want to bring up a second instance of in using either a workspace which does not have the changes made in the first or even another site
with a different set of changes and have them run smoothly in parallel! VS2010's internal web server just worked!

Hi Derek Dongray,
You are posting on Visual Studio Setup forum which talks about Visual Studio installation problems. If you need to know how to set your IISExpress, please post on this forum instead:

  • Can iDSIE (Meta-directory) be used as a single authentication point from iPlanet Web Server for multiple databases using direct "or" indirect connectors?

    Basically, the latest release of iPlanet Web Server forces the user/group information source to be an LDAP database. Currently, the user accounts are in Active Directory, NT, Oracle and NetWare Directory Service in this heterogeneous environment.
    What I am looking for is a meta-directory product which can do two things:
    1-Single authentiation point for users in mulitple databases from iPlanet Web Server.
    2-Single administration point for all of the databases listed above.
    For example, can I add/modify/delete a user account at the meta-directory level and have this propagate to all of the databases listed above reducing the administration to one meta-directory product?

    With an Virtual Directory solution, you can authenticate Iplanet Web Server against nearly anything including any LDAPv3 Directory Server, Microsoft Active Directory, Windows NT Domains, Oracle RDBMS, IBM DB2 RDBMS, Microsoft SQL, and others.
    All of this is done dynamically and doesn't require any heavyweight synchronization process. The Virtual Directory acts as a dynamic schema / DIT / data translation engine for different types of repositories.
    OctetString's Virtual Directory Engine is one such example. You can download a 30 day evaluation copy at:
    http://www.octetstring.com
    It will take you all of 30 minutes to get iPlanet Web Server authenticated against and using groups from things like Oracle RDBMS, Windows NT Domains, or Active Directory.

  • Configuring default web apps for virtual hosts

    Hi,
    This posting is meant save time for anyone trying to specify a default web app
    for each of their virtual hosts (as opposed to specifying a default web app for
    each of their wl servers). This applies to weblogic 6.1, on NT. (I haven't tried
    this on other platforms).
    If you are trying to use the admin console to do this, give up. It's not possible.
    The "Virtual Host/Configuration" window lets you specify everything about that
    vhost configuration EXCEPT a default web app. (The "Default Web Application" drop
    down menu will always have only one option to choose from: "none").
    Instead, shutdown your server, and edit your domain's config.xml file manually.
    Attached is an example config file that specifies that the web app "kz" should
    be the default web app for the vhost "wl.kz.com", and that the web app "kahuna"
    should be the default web app for the vhost "www.kahuna.com".
    Hope this helps,

    [config.xml]

    Hi,
    Is it possible to configure default web appls for virtual hosts
    with Weblogic 6.0 on NT platform? I tried to configure the configure.xml as Brian
    did, it doesnot work. I am just wondering if there's any other possible way to
    do this.
    Thanks.

  • Can't Login to Embedded Web Server for HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g that I am trying to access in order to update the adress book for the scanner but in order to do that I must login. I have never set up a user name or password for it. Is there a default username and password?

    Hello @jessescopely, 
    Welcome back to the HP forums.
    I understand that when you try to access the EWS (Embedded Web Server) for your Officejet pro 8600, you are prompted for a username and password.
    Unfortunately there is no default username or password.
    On rare occasions this can be fixed by restoring the network defaults.
    Go into the Setup menu.
    Select the Network sub menu.
    Choose Restore Network Defaults.
    I have also sent you via private message the steps to reset your printer back to factory defaults.
    If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, this post has instructions.
    If neither of those clear the password, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836.

  • How to set the default web site for WGM users

    Hi,
    In Tiger server there was a place to input the URL of the default web page for all browsers when users logged into network home folders. This was really helpful and saved a bunch of bandwidth and class time. Is there any way to do this in Leopard server? If so, please point me in the right direction.
    Thanks,

    Antonio, Thanks! That seems to have worked for Safari. However, we like Firefox too, and I tried to set that up the same way, but was told "can't find a manifest for that app". I wonder if I can copy the Safari list then alter and rename it?

  • Configuring OSX 10.6.8 server for Airport.

    How do I configure OSX 10.6.8 server for Airport when only configured for ethernet? I am moving to an un-cabled and non-ethernet environment. Is it straightforward and do-able by a moderately informed amateur?

    Bridged mode — what's more commonly called an "Access Point" or an "AP" configuration — means...
    the WiFi devices are network "transparent", and function roughly analogous to a hunk of Ethernet wiring.
    the WiFi devices are not operating as IP routers.
    DHCP and the rest of your services are running directly from your OS X Server box.
    that there is no need to deal with IP subnet routing.
    little or no need to change the OS X Server configuration.
    portable devices can move among multiple local WiFi (AP/bridged) devices, without reconnecting.
    If you choose to run your WiFi as routers, you'll be dealing with all the "fun" that is multiple routers. Which is entirely possible, but an approach that requires rather more knowledge of IP.   Also that if (when?) you start using have more than one WiFi device, that clients will have to drop off and reconnect.
    I also prefer a dedicated firewall-gateway box and preferably one with VPN server capabilities, and generally not prefering to use an Airport-class device in that role, nor do I prefer to use an OS X Server box as the firewall-gateway box.  This makes the network simpler, and avoids (unintentionally) exposing ports or such outside your network due to software reconfigurations or sometimes after software installs and updates.
    I'd encourage some general homework here, and do some reading on setting up an IP network, IP routing and related. This area is usually fairly simple — once you've done a few — but it's rather more that can easily fit into a small text input box.  Apple has some related documentation here and here and here and here, and probably a few other spots.  Or get some help.

  • Setting apache as a front end host-proxy web server for weblogic 10.3.3

    Hi ,
    i have installed apache 2.2.21 in the red hat linux 6 environment.Now i am trying to set that apache web server as a front end host ,proxy web server for my weblogic 10.3 application server cluster. My apache is listening to the port 8080.

    Thanks Ravi,
    i have already gone through http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12840_01/wls/docs103/plugins/apache.html.
    In my case "mod_wl_22.so" was not available but i downloaded this p10051826_1033_Generic.zip file from where i got that file and make it available in the modules directory, changed the file permissions (using chmod 755 mod_wl_22.so) and also changed the httpd.conf file as below :
    LoadModule weblogic_module modules/mod_wl_22.so
    <IfModule mod_weblogic.c>

    Using file mod_wl_22.so i checked the following:
    mod_wl_22.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, not stripped
    My problem is when i used ./apachectl -t i got the following error :

    CM SDK 9.0.4 (released very shortly) includes the "Web Starter Application". This is a J2EE Web Application with full MVC architecture and completely open source!
    You may be able to obtain this application sooner from Oracle Consulting - it will work on the current CM SDK 9.0.3.
    JSP and Tag Libraries make up the UI. The controller framework is similar to Jakarta Struts. It offers localization support, ADA compliance etc.
    You can easily develop the application from JDeveloper and deploy to 9iAS.

  • Keepalive for Single web server with Multiple URLs

    We require to configure CSS ( cisco 11500 series) switch configuration. Currently we have the settings mentioned below :
    1. We have two IIS servers behind CSS switch hosting multiple websites for load balancing.
    2. Keepalive type we are using is HTTP-HEAD
    3. There is one virtual IP assigned to the CSS switch for all websites.
    Now we have to provide the keep-alive URIs for the CSS switch. I am not sure which URI we have to provide for keepalive status check.
    As per my understanding
    1. there would be DNS entries for the websites pointing to the VIP of the CSS switch
    e.g abc.com --> VIP
    xyz.com --> VIP
    aaa.com --> VIP
    2. Name based virtual hosting to be configured on IIS server (i.e host header configuration)
    3. We have to provide the URI for the keepalive prameters. As there are multiple websites are hosted on the server,firstly , is it possible in CSS switch to configure multiple keepalives for different websites ? secondly is it possible to give the complete URL (http://abc.com ) in the URI parameter of keepalive settings ? typically these settings are like
    IP address : < IP address of Node >
    URI : /index.html
    I am not clear how this all settings will work. What is the ideal way or best practice of configuring the load balancing in the scenario of multiple websites to be hosted on IIS servers with CSS switch loadbalancer.
    Is it correct to assign 1 VIP for multiple websites on server nodes?
    Your inputs will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance.

    We have done this multiple ways.
    1. we did port mapping on the backend.
    server www1
    ip address x.x.x.x
    keepalive type http
    keepalive port 80
    keepalive uri "/lb.htm"
    acitve
    server www2
    ip address x.x.x.x {same as above}
    keepalive type http
    keepalive port 81
    keepalive uri "/lb.htm"
    active
    or via host header checking
    2.
    service www1-1
    ip address x.x.x.x
    keepalive type script ap-kal-httptag "www1-1 /lb.htm www1"
    active
    service www2-1
    ip address x.x.x.x {same as above}
    keepalive type script ap-kal-httptag "www2-1 /lb.htm www2"
    active
    With the script ap-kal-httptag, you will need to have dns entries that the CSS will be able to resolve to the individual web site addreses.

  • Configure DNS on Snow Leopard Server for Web Hosting

    Hi Everyone,
    I put together an article on my blog about Snow Leopard DNS setup for web hosting. http://www.mkahn.com/?p=279
    I'll be revising it over the next few weeks to make it more informative based around feedback. Let me know if you have any questions or trouble setting up DNS on Snow Leopard Server for web hosting.

    Thanks for your replies. I realize I'm not making clear the way this network is configured . Also, the only services running on the Snow Leopard server are (at this time):
    dhcpd - in the 10.136.31.x range;
    dns - same as before;
    planned to add are:
    Open Directory (for network logins)
    Software update;
    Web (only on the 10.136.31.x Ethernet);
    mySQL (localhost only - for moodle);
    NAT is not set up on the Snow Leopard server itself. We have an outside router, a Cisco 2811. This router provides routing for both the public IP range, and the NAT range is configured in this router. The forwarding dns is located in LR and Fayetteville. So what I need is dns on Snow Leopard to forward outside queries to the state DNS servers, and resolve the local NAT IP only for Open Directory and a set of Snow Leopard clients.
    Is this going to be possible?

  • XML IDOC data (hosted on a web server)   &  handling multiple WSDLs

    Hi ALL,
    1)how to design an Interface for picking up an XML IDOC data (hosted on a web server) which will be uploaded to SAP or converted to a file
    this is what the customer has given me ..can any one explain me this and help me how to more forward
    2).This Interface must use UDDI concept because we are going to use multiple BAPIs /RFCs as WSDLs
    what is this mean can any send me some document on this
    3).Use web-service navigator concept as we will be handling multiple WSDLs
    i worked on 1. to define a place holder in WebAS for holding the
    wsdls.
    2. publish the wsdls in WebAS UDDI Repostory
    but i have never used web-service navigator concept as we will be handling multiple WSDLs what is the difference ..send me some step by step docs ..
    thanks very much
    RK..

    1.I am not clear with the requirement too. THere is no big deal in sending XML to IDOC or File. Based on your requirement you have to import IDOC structure or ify ou are using file, create a structure for the file.
    If u are asking about sendin the XML directly without mapping, even you can do that without MM and even IM.
    Please be more elaborate and if you are not clear with what client said, paraphrase them or ask again. Its not good to start work unless we are very clear with the requirement.
    you can say to my understanding i feel this, now pI will send data like this. Is it correct?
    2. More information on UDDI
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UDDI
    I dont think you need to worry much about this now with many features provided in ESR especially
    3. http://<Host>:<port>/wsnavigator/
    The webservices going out of PI are published here.
    provide host and port are host and port details of ext system.
    Once you enter link in your browser, it shows the available webservices hosted there.
    All you need is to click on the required wsdl and test it.
    It is as good as sending your data from PI to other system.
    It is similar to Altova XML spy but the difference here is you enter the values directly here but in XML spy we send XML .
