Yes - your analysis is correct. To configure your website to accept "Localhost" as a valid host name:
a) Open IIS Manager b) Locate the website in question - right-click - Properties c) On the website tab, click the "Advanced" button d) Click the "Add" button, and add a new binding. IP address + Port + "Localhost" as the Host Header value Cheers Ken From: Joe Heaton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 16 May 2008 12:27 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Citrix problem with install I looked at the httperr.log. It is showing the following: 2008-05-14 22:17:42 127.0.0.1 1215 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET /lmc/index.jsp 400 - Hostname - 2008-05-14 22:18:19 127.0.0.1 1238 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET /lmc/index.jsp 400 - Hostname - 2008-05-14 22:58:50 127.0.0.1 1356 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET /lmc/index.jsp 400 - Hostname - So the reason is Hostname? Which would point to what you were saying about not accepting "localhost". I'm poking around in IIS Manager, trying to find where to tell it to accept localhost. Time to break out my google-fu. Thanks Ken.

Probably occurring because you aren't sending the correct Host HTTP header to the IIS server (it's configured to listen for the servername, and not "localhost" as a header. You can change the IIS config to accept "localhost" as well as the servername. Look in the httperr.log error log file to find out why you are getting Bad Request b) If you want to view something over HTTPS you need a certificate. Did you install a cert into the website or configure IIS to use an existing server authentication certificate? You can use SelfSSL.exe (part of the Res Kit tools) to generate a self-signed certificate to test.

I did find that I had 2 NICs, both set to DHCP. I disabled one, and put a static address on the other, reinstalled LMC, and now I'm getting a 400 error, when using localhost. If I change that to the server name, then I get the message saying it needs to be viewed over https.

I know mine is blank. On Wed, May 14, 2008 at 12:23 PM, Joe Heaton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: That's what I thought. So I'm right where I started. Install seems to go fine, but the web app won't open. Is there anything I need to change in the security settings for IE?
