Deploying website on Windows XP computer?
-
Hi I am using Visual Web Developer 2010 Express to develop a website. I am still busy developing the website, but my boss wants to demo what we have so far at a congress. Is it possible to deploy the website on a temporary basis on a Windows XP Professional computer so that my boss can access it via the internet from the congress venue in another city? Thank you for the help. Kobus

It is - you have to install Internet Information Server, or use IIS Express[^] (I'd choose IIS Express if I were you).

Thanks for the reply. I have IIS on the the XP machine and I have created a Virtual Directory to the website. I can access the website from the XP machine using http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/websitename (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the machine), but when I try to access it from another computer I cannot. It just says cannot display the website. Kobus

You'll need to check the permissions in IIS to make sure that it allows access to external computers.
