Question

Error # 8FFE2740

I tried posting this in DW forum, but no result, so I thought I would try here.

While working in DW MX, I cannot view the page in the browser. It seems that IIS is stopped. When I try to start it, I get the above error. It looks like FMS, which I also have on the development machine, is controlling port 80. I tried stopping FMS, but it will not release the port.

Is there any way to make these two coexist? I don't really want to remove either one, but I need to make changes to the websites I have developed under DW MX.

Thanks in advance

Will

    Sure... you just need two IP addresses... one for FMS, and one for IIS.

    If you're running IIS6, you need to disable socket pooling (to prevent IIS from binding to port 80 on all IP addresses. See the technote below for instructions on using httpcfg to disable socket pooling:

    Alternately, you could just stop FMS from binding to port 80. While that wouldn't be a great idea for a production machine, it should be fine for a dev machine (you just wouldn't have port 80 available on FMS).

    Thanks. I might try that. In the meantime, I just removed the FMS.
