Hello All, Greetings.
I need a little sorting out on this scenario of mine. Am developing a certain web application. Currently on my local development machine only [Win 7 OS], not made live or available. What I want is, that when I deploy it to my IIS and then run from there, I’d
like a custom url, domain etc to be configured for it; This is what I want -> www.devjobacity.com.
and not the usual localhost:port etcetc. ugly thing. I have tried doing the configuration. Added a new website completely and not under Default Web Sites. But separately.
These are what I have given while setting up ::
site name: Jobacity
Host: www.devjobacity.com
IP Address http - All Unassigned– 127.0.0.10
Port 80
Domain devjobacity.com
And finally chose the path of my files on the disk.
Now, went to the tmpHosts file to edit it and this is what I appended there ::
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.10 devjobacity.com
# ::2 devjobacity.com
That’s all I did. I am not saying that all of what I have done was with full knowledge and conscious understanding [which is why I am pretty sure I have done something wrong configuration somewhere]; basically most of what I could pick up from a few of the
articles I read on internet on how this could be done possibly. So finally when I click on ‘Browse
www.devjobacity.com on 127.0.0.10:80(http)’ Nothing happens, nothing opens. The site is not opened. Nothing. : |
What do I do with the change/alteration exactly at which point? Which config. needs to be changed could you please tell me? Help me please, on this specific thing, friends.
Thanks a Lot.
