Domain name/ip address issue with web server

My problem is the reverse of what is normally expected... I can access a website by domain name but not by ip address. Whenever I substitute the website's ip address for the domain name I get 404's.
I'm stumped by this. I can access other websites on the web at large by ip address, but none of the websites hosted on my server will work this way. The domain name works:
http://domain/filename
but
http://ipaddress/filename
returns 404's
Any idea what the problem is?

That's to be expected if you have more than one website configured in IIS. Each website must have a unique identity, made up of the host address, ip address and port number, so in most cases where the webserver only has a single IP address and will obviously
be using port 80 the host name must be different.
If you have only one website, or your website has it's own IP address you can make it accessible via IP. Simply add another identity (like you might have one for mydomain.com and another for
www.mydomain.com), but this time only assign it the IP address and port number, leave the host header value empty. As long as that combination is unique you'll be able to access the website using the IP address. If it's
not unique you'll get an error preventing you from adding the identity, at which point you'll need to find which site it's conflicting with.

  • Security issue with web server plug-in with Weblogic server

    Hi,
    I have a setup where I have an Microsoft IIS setup as the front facing web server and have the WLS IIS plug-in installed on it. At the backend, is two WLS11g managed servers in a cluster.
    I have a JAX-WS client running on HPUX hitting the web service via IIS but I observe a very strange thing. When the service request is rather small, it could pass through IIS and the managed servers could pick up the call and reply correctly. However, when I have a bigger request call (larger payload), it will error out, citing "Unsupported Content-Type: text/html Supported ones are: [text/xml]".
    I have also attempt to put in a TCP/IP Monitor between the client and IIS and it appears that regardless if the call gets through, it seems to consistently got hit with a HTTP error 401.2, follow by a 401.1, and then, the WSDL came back. I am pretty sure that the web services are not secured as I could get the WSDL without any authentication on the managed servers direct from my brower (it did pop the authentication window if I attempt to hit the web services via IIS)
    Anyone has any idea what is going on, the issue seems to be so contradicting...
    Thanks in advance.

  • DNS Server does not resolve new generic Top Level Domain names- CNR configuration issue?

    Hi all,
    I am not sure if this is the correct community to post this question, but I will give it a try. I noticed that the users of my network cannot resolve web sites using new top level domain names, like ".education", ".international", etc. I have an internal DNS server made by Infoblox and a Cisco CNR v6.3.3.1 as an external DNS server. Infoblox uses CNR as its forwarder and CNR uses the root DNS servers for queries.
    I would think that CNR was the problem because it is an obsolete product but after speaking with a fellow engineer at another organization where they still use an older version of CNR than mine, they have no problems at all. So now I am thinking it is a setting either on Infoblox, or on CNR I need to change. I can see Infoblox is forwarding the requests to CNR but that's about it. I am not sure if CNR is discarding the request. When I do an nslookup from a PC in my network it does not matter if I set my DNS server to be the Infoblox or the CNR. Neither resolves the URL.
    Then again, no matter what I lookup using the CNR as my DNS, I only get a response with the root DNS names and IPs!
    Any help is appreciated!

    Hi Constantinos,
    Have you taken a look at the infoblox community site?  We've just reposted your question there and alerted some internal SMEs that should provide a solution soon.

  • Memory leak issue with link server between SQL Server 2012 and Oracle

    Hi,
    We are trying to use the linked server feature with SQL Server 2012 to connect SQL server and Oracle database. We are concerned about the existing memory leak issue.  For more context please refer to the link.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/psssql/archive/2009/09/22/if-you-use-linked-server-queries-you-need-to-read-this.aspx
    The above link talks about the issues with SQL Server versions 2005 and 2008, not sure if this is still the case in 2012.  I could not find any article that talks about if this issue was fixed by Microsoft in later version.
    We know that SQL Server process crashes because of the third-party linked server provider which is loaded inside SQL Server process. If the third-party linked server provider is enabled together with the
    Allow inprocess option, the SQL Server process crashes when this third-party linked server experiences internal problems.
    We wanted to know if this fixed in SQL Server 2012 ?

    So your question is more of a information type or are you really facing OOM issue.
    There can be two things for OOM
    1. There is bug in SQL Server which is causing the issue which might be fixed in 2012
    2. The Linked server provider used to connect to Oracle is not upto date and some patch is missing or more recent version is to be used.  Did you made sure that you are using latest version.
    What is Oracle version you are trying to connect(9i,10g, R2...)

  • What the IP address does the Web Server get?

    Hi all,
    We have a scenario like this:
    Client——>Proxy(like squid)—........—>Web Server( 6.1 SP7)——>Application
    We know that the Web Server will get the remote IP address, and set as proxy-ip in HTTP Header.
    But, what the exact remote IP address does the Web Server get? The IP of the Proxy? or The IP of the original client?
    If we want to get the original client IP in the Application, what do we need to do?
    Thanks!
    Shen

    Look at the documentation for customized logging
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/821-1497/gdsxf?l=en&a=view
    Basically, you configure a custom log file format in SJSWS
    And instead of using the variable: %Ses->client.ip%
    you will use something like the variable: %Req->headers.X-Forwarded-For%

  • Issues with JMS Server migration

    Hi All,
    I have issue with JMS server migration.
    I have configured clustred environment with 2 Managed server (MS1 & MS2) and with one JMS Server which is running on MS1 and configured for auto migration, when I start both my managed server once and access the application very functionality works fine and when I stop the MS1 the JMS server successfully geting migrated to MS2 and in this scenarion also my application works as expected and when I restart the MS1 and access the application all the functionalities related to MDBs are executed twice.
    However once we restart the MS1 we observe that in the monitor tab of MDB the connection status for both managed servers it show as connected.
    As a result there is a redundancy when the MDB is executed
    I am using Weblogic Server 10.3.0 & normal topics in the MDBs.
    Please let me know is this a bug or am I missing any configuration.

    Hi Suresh,
    There is a "Bug-10007947" in WLS 10.3.0 version which dose not displays the values properly on admin-console once the migration has taken place, however I am assuming that bug may fix your issue so try that out in your test environment. If that dose not work try out the below suggestions.
    Suggestion:
    - Try the same test on different versions of WLS lower as well as on higher versions compared to WLS 10.3.0 (i.e WLS 9.2.X and WLS 10.3.x) and check what are the result.
    - If in any other version your test runes properly, then you can create a simple test case and open a service request with Oracle asking for creating a BUG and let them do their job.
    Hope above information helped you.

  • Keeping Domain Name Email Address After Hosting With MobileMe

    Hi,
    I am looking for any advice with regard to my website, which I now host with MobileMe. Prior to the transfer I had a Domain specific email address, which I now can no longer use. I receive the emails, but when it comes to answering, I can only answer as my .Mac account name.
    Can anyone help, as my previous Domain holder wants about US$100/year to maintain this facility?
    Cheers,

    Whether you get e-mails from the type of [email protected] or not depends on your domain registrar.
    What you're paying now is also the hosting which is needed to have real mailboxes.
    Usually at domain registrars you get MailForwards which means that I send e-mails at [email protected] which forwards e-mails to another address like [email protected] and you can set [email protected] to be forwarded to another e-mail (if you want). So basically MailForwards aren't real e-mails themselves. You can also set *@yourdomain.com so all e-mails sent to no matter which e-mail @yourdomain.com gets sent to [email protected] (no matter what people put in front of the @yourdomain.com).
    The problem is that if you set up CNAME for your domain usually E-Mail gets broken. But there’s a trick to avoid that (pointed out to by Earl and originally posted by Seanomich on the Apple Discussion Forums). Mainly that’s it:
    1. www.yourdomain.com is different from yourdomain.com
    2. Domain registrars handle them as completely different
    3. The trick is to set up CNAME for www.yourdomain.com (as of Chapter 2 of this page)
    4. For yourdomain.com set up a WebForward instead (as of Chapter 1 of this page) pointing it to www.yourdomain.com
    5. Now yourdomain.com is free to be used for e-mails
    If your domain registrar doesn't provide this feature (MailForwards without having to pay the hosting) you could manage your domain using ZoneEdit (which is free) and you will get MailForward e-mails.
    You will then also be able to send e-mails from [email protected]. All you need to do is write [email protected] in the Preferences of the Mail application where it says E-mail (same on the iPhone). In addition to that if you use a gmail address as real address behind the [email protected] MailForward you will also be able to send e-mails from the web as [email protected] since it allows to apply aliases.
    Bottom line: you can have e-mails like you want
    If MailForward isn’t enough for you, you probably need a hosting package (other than MobileMe) along with your domain and that's where you have to pay the 100$ a year...

  • URGENT: Tomcat, Connection Pool - Issue with web.xml & server.xml

    Folks,
    I am trying to connect to a MS SQL database using Tomcat/JSP but having issues. The code that I am using is as follows:
    Context ic = new InitialContext();
    DataSource ds = (DataSource) ic.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/test");
    Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
    Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
    I have added the following code to my Server.xml:
    <Resource name="jdbc/test" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
    maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000"
    username="DB_AW_DATA" password="tester" driverClassName="com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"
    url="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://192.168.0.1\\Newcastle"/>
    And the complete web.xml
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <!DOCTYPE web-app (View Source for full doctype...)>
    - <web-app>
    - <resource-ref>
    <description>Resource reference to java.sql.Connection factory defined in server.xml</description>
    <res-ref-name>jdbc/test</res-ref-name>
    <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
    <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
    </resource-ref>
    </web-app>
    The error message that I am getting is as follows:
    java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null'
    What confuses me is that I have placed the following files in Tomcat\common\lib...
    mssqlserver.jar
    msbase.jar
    msutil.jar
    I think this is purely an issue with how I configured server.xml and web.xml
    In the Tomcat documentation it states to put the code in the server.xml - but nested inside the Context element. This is something that I have not done as I am clear what the Context should be..
    Can someone assist...
    <Context path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0"> ???
    what should be the path and the docBase.
    I have deployed the following application:
    http://localhost:8080/SCWAPP/index.jsp
    THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL SUPPORRT

    you should put the code you typed in server.xml into context.xml
    in the META-INF folder and this will fix your problem.
    the latest tomcat docs detail what to do.

  • Can Acrobat 9 pro be installed to XP with web server(IIS) without any license issue?

    It seems not to permit to install into window server, but how about the window XP had web server installed?

    Thanks for your reply. As I mentioned in my post, when I went to Control Panel to uninstall Acrobat 11.0, it wasn't listed among currently installed apps. However, after going back and looking through the Installed On dates in Control Panel, I realized that for some reason, it's called Adobe PFD Creation Add-on XI, rather than Acrobat 11.0. Interestingly, the program folder name in Windows Explorer still uses Acrobat 11.0.
    Fortunately for me, I always have disc versions of my software. So I was able to re-install Acrobat 9.0 once I got rid of Adobe PDF Creation Add-on XI. I really wish that Adobe made clearer what extras they are installing with these trial versions :-(
    Thanks again.
