Setup Site in IIS cant be Displayed in Browser - windows

I setup a new Site in the IIS8. I've gone trough the setup wizard and placed the Files on the Path i referenced in the Wizard.
Even though when i want to access it in the Browser with the Hostname i entered it says that the page cant be displayed.
It's all local so i dont need to access it from another location.
Any clues what i might have forgotten?
I already checked here to look if i forgot something but i didnt see anything

I forgot to make an entry in the hosts file.
Because of that i wasn't reachable.
Make the entry and it works fine.

Forbidden You don't have permission to access /appetitclic/wp-content/themes/Apc/img/logo.png on this server

Hello all :)
I am currently working on a WP website and a the moment I am working locally with Wampserver.
None of my pictures happen to appear on my website.
Here is the error I get when I put the image url in my browser :
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access
/appetitclic/wp-content/themes/Apc/img/logo.png on this server.
I have no problem accessing phpmyadmin and image from TewentyTwelve template work fine.
Things I have tried :
-Editing (and creating) .htaccess in wp-admin.
-Editing phpmyadmin.conf
-Puting Wamp on online mode
-Working through http://127.0.0.1/ instead of locally.
I am pretty sure the problem doesn't have to so with the code because I have access to the /appetitclic/wp-content/themes/Apc/img/ folder and I see the list of images (not working). I maybe missed one or two workarounds but I am pretty sure I tried most of the common ones.
If you need any info on my setup / configs I have tried ask away.
Thank you very much,
Cheers.
If you start your relative url with a backslash '/' that means go to the servers root folder and work up from there.
Try loosing the leading slash and see what that does.
I have that same problem when I downloaded random images for img preloading testing.
So I went to change permission from no access to read & write (if on Mac then > Get info. You shall see that permission section at the very bottom).
You might use chmod to change permission to particular users.
Hope this help.
I had the same problem today. I created a static webpage put in the html folder of my web server. It turned out that some images could not be loaded. The solution is quite simple. I just right click the image folder and changed the properties to allow readers to view the images.

Localhost is no longer working properly

I just built a site using Xampp and it worked great. I just transferred my site (that I used to develop by updating to live server) to localhost, and it isn't working right at all.
The images do not show and the pages are not refreshing properly.
I had to change the CSS images to /folder/x instead of just x, which I can understand I guess, but why are my HTML images suddenly not working?
One of the pages, the paths are even absolute, but the page just isn't updating even though it's saved in the local folder.
What gives? All I did differently was added a password to root user in MySQL and tried (and failed) at some mod_rewrites, which I removed.
It points the images from localhost/ instead of localhost/folder, even adding folder/x doesn't work.
You probably forgot to convert a link or made a mistake.
Remember that /images/x.png means that it's trying to find the folder images from root and not from the current folder your site is located in. Try using ./images/x.png instead.
Perhaps you could post an example from your site?
Try looking at the Apache access logs and see whether you can find a request for an image with the wrong path.

Moved joomla site to another host but doesn't work

I have recently moved my joomla site to another hosting. But now the site doesn't work. Shows blank page. Though the administrator's page (/administrator) is shown and works correctly. Have any ideas for what reason it can be?
Remove the .htaccess altogether
clear the cache and tmp folders
make sure db name, login and password are correct in the configuration.php
make sure the server path (tmp and logs folders) are correct
if you still get an empty page, make sure you're looking at the right log file. Turn php error logging on or display them.
post some more details here...

Joomla 1.5 install without domain

So, I installed a new joomla 1.523 (via Fantastico) on my server, but event though I have the domain name set, I haven't registered it yet. Now I need to acess joomla, and I can't.
I already did this with a Moodle server, and I know I had to change a config file to set the url to the IP. So basically I should acess it with:
http://190.190.190.190/~user
(This ip doesen't exist, just making an example).
But I always get an error trying to acess it, even though I get redirected to:
http://190.190.190.190/~user/installation/index.php
Anyone know what I need to change to get this to work?
(I tried messing around with the configuration.php file in the root of my server, but there is nothing there like a url path variable to change, I think)
After installing Joomla, the installation folder needs to be removed (or moved, or renamed), otherwise any access will be redirected there.

Unable to access magento site from anywhere but localhost

I have two applications "myapp" and "magento" on my localhost at 192.168.1.110/myapps (A) and 192.168.1.110/magento (B). (A) is an app that I wrote and can be accessed by any computer on our LAN. However, (B) cannot be accessed by anyone except on my computer, localhost.
I haven't done any special port-opening or blocking on Apache or Magento, so I'm puzzled by this. Does anybody have any insight on what might be wrong and where I should look? TIA!
EDIT: in Internet Explorer, the error is just a generic message that says "cannot display this webpage" as if it cannot even recognize the address.
EDIT 2: I tried Firebug as suggested. This is what I'm seeing under the Net tab.
"GET Magento" under URL and "ABORTED" under status. When I hover over with mouse cursor, however, it displays http://127.0.0.1/magento, which is the localhost address.. Is this being http://192.168.1.110/magento being rerouted to http://127.0.0.1/magento?
Check the base URL settings in Magento. It sounds like your base URL is set to http://127.0.0.1/magento. When you go to http://192.168.1.110/magento Magento will be called, but it will redirect to http://127.0.0.1/magento which does not work on the remote machine. You should change the base URL in Magento to http://192.168.1.110/magento.
