Hi all

I have two web sites in IIS, one is Default Web Site, and the other is my own site called testSite. I have run the installation file for my web app and installed on the Default Web Site as usual. My application is called myTestApp. I have set the home directory of the site testSite to the following location: C:\inetput\wwwroot\myTestApp.

If I go to the web browser of my application and type http://localhost/myTestApp/index.aspx, the page loads correctly, however if I replace the localhost with the actual IP address of the web server, IIS tries to go to the following location: 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\myTestApp\myTestApp\

Can anyone suggest a solution to this issue, I am replicating what I have on another web server.

Is your browser configured to use a proxy? If so is it set to bypass local addresses - always a good thing to check.

It's also worth checking your hosts / lmhosts files and see if anything in there has been configured for either your ip / localhost.
