I have upgraded to Windows 8.1 pro and 127.0.0.1 and my local IP will not resolve to to the IIS 8.5 start page but localhost will.
But it all works in Firefox and Chrome.
I have no idea how to fix this it shows no errors other than this:
This page can’t be displayed
Could some one help me figure this out?
Never mind I got it working
I figured it out had to turn off new IE 11 feature "Enable Enhanced Protected mode" Now it seams to work fine
try adding the port to localhost: localhost:80 or localhost:8080. try checking proxy bypass settings for Internet Explorer (Tools -> Options), make sure it's set to proxy bypass for localhost. Check C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and make sure the localhost entry is there.
Internet Explorer 11 will no longer be supported for Microsoft's online services like Office 365, OneDrive, Outlook, and more on August 17th. Microsoft has also been trying to stop people from using Internet Explorer for more than five years.
Open Internet Explorer and select Tools > Internet Options. In the Internet Options window, click the Security tab. Select Trusted sites and click Sites. In the Trusted Sites window, enter the default server address (http://localhost) in the Add this website to the zone field, then click Add.
The Internet Explorer (IE) 11 desktop application ended support for Windows 10 semi-annual channel on June 15, 2022. Customers are encouraged to move to Microsoft Edge with IE mode. IE mode enables backward compatibility and will be supported through at least 2029.
Disable the "Enable Enhanced Protected mode" in Internet Options -> Advanced -> Security. Advanced settings dialog
To add a site as trusted site in IE, follow these steps:
In Internet Explorer, click Tools
, click Internet Options
, and then click the Security
tab.
In the Select a Web content zone to specify its current security settings box, click Trusted Sites
, and then click Sites
.
Disable the Require Server Verification
option to add HTTP sites.
Here, add http://127.0.0.1
, http://<your IP>
, hence you can access your local server by these addresses.
