Server 2022 IIS install not creating Registry keys in InetStp\Components
Hi I'm hoping someone can help or has run into this before, I've got a production server we installed IIS on as part of a VEEAM ONE install but the installer failed as it complains its missing several IIS components. When checking the Server Manager I can see the components are installed so as a work around VEEAM gave me an installer that didn't check for the components which then fails to register a website and still rolls back. On further investigation the Veeam tech asked me to check for several registry entries see image: When checking the servers registry all of them are missing and the folder has permissions to only allow the Trusted Installer to make changes (Default behaviour I assume). I have run both an SFC and DISM then uninstalled/reinstalled IIS but with the same result. Oddly when I open the IIS manager it looks to be running ok but yet these keys are missing? Can someone please advise on possible fixes or is this expected and something that Veeam need to change??IIS and CVE-2026-49975
Hello IIS Team, our SOC Team informed us about the CVE-2026-49975 vulnerability in MS IIS. I could'nt found any patch for this. So my question is - are there any plans for for a patch / hotfix or what can we do to fix this? Greetings Rene Source: https://blog.calif.io/p/codex-discovered-a-hidden-http2-bomb
IIS on Windows 10 no longer serving my websites
My websites were working, i.e. I could access them on my mobile phone. But something has happened abd they are not longer accessible - "NOT FOUND" I have checked: The bindings - https, correct domain name Both web sites are started. I have done ISSRESET. Checked my A records in Webcentral account. So what else do I need to check? Is there a specific IIS troubleshooter available that I can download and run?
HTTPS Reverse Proxy on IIS 10 – External Access Fails (Timeout) Although Local Requests Work
Hello everyone, I’m currently facing an issue with an IIS 10 reverse proxy configuration on Windows Server, and I would really appreciate your guidance. Environment Windows Server IIS 10 Application Request Routing (ARR) + URL Rewrite enabled Backend application running on: http://localhost:8080/ http://localhost:8080/login Public domain: https://lojistik.abc.com.tr What I want to achieve I want users to access the backend web application through the following URL: https://lojistik.abc.com.tr/LMYS/login Internally, IIS should proxy this to: http://localhost:8080/login What works The backend application is accessible without issues: http://localhost:8080/login From the server itself, reverse proxy works: Invoke-WebRequest "https://lojistik.abc.com.tr/LMYS/login" → StatusCode: 200 (success) What does NOT work From any client machine, the following request results in a timeout: https://lojistik.abc.com.tr/LMYS/login Browser shows connection timeout. No entry appears in IIS logs for external requests to /LMYS/.... Tests performed ▪ netstat -ano | findstr :443 on the server → Port 443 is listening ▪ DNS resolves correctly: lojistik.abc.com.tr → 10.6.130.90 ▪ Reverse proxy rule on IIS is correctly configured under the HTTPS binding site: Pattern: ^LMYS(/.*)?$ Rewrite to: http://localhost:8080{R:1} ▪ ARR Server Proxy is enabled. Key observation Requests from the server itself succeed (reverse proxy returns 200), but external clients always time out, which suggests that the HTTPS traffic is not reaching IIS at all (likely blocked or not NAT-forwarded on the network path). Question What could cause HTTPS (port 443) traffic to reach IIS locally, but external requests to the same port to hang indefinitely? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Best regards,Binding a website that already uses required port.
Hello devs, I hope you are having a great day. I have already developed a website that runs on port 8081 in localhost. When i start a new site in IIS and set 8081 as the port in the bind section(which is already open via the website), I receive the error that the port is already in use. My question is how can I connect my domain to the local host and specified port in IIS or any other application. The IIS has a default website(which brings the welcome page up) and by using that the connection between domain and server is assured(name servers are set and ready). If only the IIS could relay all traffic to the localhost and port 8081 of the server, my problem would be solved. I have attached some pictures for better understanding. Thank you in advance Best wishes, Sahand -As you see in this picture my website has started and working in the specified IP and port. ,-In this picture while binding the new website to port 8081 the IIS refuses to start the site with this error(port 8081 is already in use by my website).
Exchnage 2019 on prem EMS not working. Recreating Exchange Virtual Directories failed

Issue Most of you have encountered situations where you have used IIS URL Rewrite to redirect traffic from one site to another. But in some cases, rewrite rules fail to work as expected and returns 'HTTP Error 404.4 - Not Found'. The 404.4 status code means no handler configured. Which means the file name extension of the requested URL doesn't have a handler that is configured to process the request on the Web server. For example you have two sites hosted in IIS. Site1 bind with port 81 and Site2 bind with port 82. The requirement is to rewrite all the request coming to Site1 (port:81) should rewrite to Site2 (port:82). The below rule is configured - <system.webServer> <rewrite> <rules> <rule name="RewriteToPort81" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^.*$" /> <action type="Rewrite" url="http://localhost:82/{R:0}" appendQueryString="true" /> </rule> </rules> </rewrite> </system.webServer> Solution First you need to check if the correct module is installed in IIS. To check this go to IIS Manager and open the Modules. Within the Modules check if the correct URL Rewrite module is installed. You can get the latest IIS URL Rewrite module from this link URL Rewrite : The Official Microsoft IIS Site If the correct module is installed as highlighted above, the next thing you check the Failed Request Tracing logs for the request. And verify if the correct rule is invoked and it updates the URL to new one. Here in this case you can see "RewriteToPort82" rule is invoked and it changed the request URL to http://loalhost:82/. Also verify if the HttpStatus="404" and HttpSubStatus="4". To remediate the issue, go to IIS Manager, open Application Request Routing Cache module and open Server Proxy Settings form the right-hand Actions pane. Within the Server Proxy Settings you will find an option to enable proxy. Check the Enable proxy checkbox and click apply form the right-hand Actions pane as pointed in the below picture. After this you need to restart IIS. This should resolve the URL rewrite issue.

Hi, We are currently struggling with IIS Application Pool recycle permissions which we need to assign to non-admin users, they can connect to the prod server or by remotely but can only recycle, start or stop application pool. They are not allowed to do anything else. Please let me know what the best and standard approach to achieve this. Thanks
