blank iis8 localhost page on windows 8 laptop - windows-8

Good day,
I'm trying to install IIS on windows 8 laptop.
When i type [http://localhost] it gives me a blank page.
I can ping localhost and 127.0.0.1 and get replies and gmail developer tools give me a status of 200 OK.
I have McAfee total protection installed and i disabled the firewall on it. I also disabled windows firewall.
i just uninstalled Skype.
I completely bypassed my router and connected straight from the modem.
I restarted and nothing . Just want to get the default iis page up and running
Nothing is working please assist.

In case HTTP Redirects doesn't work, check to see that Static Content is enabled as well.
Both of these were not enabled on my new Windows 8.1 > IIS 8.5 ...
Both can be enabled here:
Control Panel > Programs > Turn Windows Features On/Off > IIS > WWW Services > Common HTTP Features
I enabled HTTP Redirects, still blank. Then I enabled Static Content and halleluah !

Share xampp on lan

I just installed XAMPP 7.2.5 on my Windows 10 x64 computer.
When I type localhost in my browser, i go into XAMPP dashboard page and anything is OK.
I want to access dashboard page (htdocs folder actually) from other devices in same network (LAN), but cannot do this!
I have static IP address on this PC (192.168.1.100), when i type this IP address in browser of my Android phone (or another windows pc on local network), and get this error: "192.168.1.100 is unreachable"
I tried this solutions but not helped:
Turn off windows defender firewall (I have not any Antivirus but
Default windows defender)
Add exception for tcp 80 port to inbound firewall rules
I search the internet and stackoverflow for 5 hours but noting found!
I tried lot of solutions about httpd.conf but nothing help me.
EDIT
I run XAMPP Control Panel with administrator permission, Now i can access htdocs from other windows computer, but still cannot access it from Android device!
It's the solution worked for me:
Disable your UAC from control panel (Low Level - Don't warn).
Run XAMPP control panel as Administrator.

Wamp not working after upgrading to windows 10

When i upgraded my pc to Windows 10, wamp server doesn't work anymore (All i get is the orange icon and not the green).
First, I've tested port 80, it was used by iis 10, so i changed to port 8080 in the httpd.conf and then restart all services, icon still orange.
Second, I opened windows features and disable Internet Information Service, restarted my pc, icon still orange.
1- What should I do to fix it?
2- Is it good to disable iis?
after upgrade to windows 10 iis auto start you need stop it and disable this service
open cmd and type net start W3SVC then enter for stop iis after start wamp server
for disable service open services and find some thing like "World Wide Web Services" and properties and choose disable

Can't access to wamp/xampp apache localhost:80 WINDOWS 10

I recently upgrade my Windows 7 to Windows 10 (9). I need to use Apache server for web development. But for some reason I can't access it via web browser.
First I tried to look in the firewall and antivirus settings. It looks fine. I've tried reinstall xampp then I tried Wamp. Nothing working. I'tried 3 web browsers Edge, Opera, Chrome. Then I tried to find if some application is blocking port 80. So I disabled Skype, IIS. Then I tried different ports 8080,9080,123. Still can't access it via browser, but ping works.
Then I disable preference of Ipv6 and I prefer IPV4 now. I've changed HOSTS file so only 127.0.0.1 localhost is uncommented.
Only problem occurs when I try run wamp my internet access became unavailible and a have to restart computer to access internet again.
Has anyone here have same problem, because according to everything I ve done it seems apache server and network settings is correct.
Maybe problem is somewhere else?
Thank you for your help.
Solved with clean Windows 10 installation.

wamp server 2.4 x64 not working on my windows 8 x64

I have a windows 8 x64.
I installed apache 2.4 x64 and the installation was smooth and the service is up and running and also the icon is also green.
the problem is that it stops working in the middle of nowhere although the icon is still showing up green and the status saying online.
I have to refresh the localhost page over and over again to get it working again.
I added some line in c:\windows\system32\driver\etc\hosts file
127.0.0.1 localhost
I also modified the C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.4.4\conf\httpd.conf file.
here is the line which I added.
Listen 0.0.0.0:80
I even removed my Skype since I heard that it conflicts with apache
when I test my http 80 port using the apache tool. sometimes it get me no result. it only shows me
Your port 80 is actually used by :
it doesn't give me the rest of the information but sometimes it shows me that my apache 2.4 is running
I removed IIS server which comes together with windows 8.
I also tried installing apache again but the problem is still there.
Any help from you guys would be much more appreciated.
Thanks.

Apache Tomcat not working in every web browser installed in Windows7 32Bit

I'm working on a web application in JSP and my web container is Apache Tomcat 7.0.2 (Its portable cross-platform version). As I've made extensive use of HTML5-CSS3 and my target browser is Google Chrome, I'm able to run the the Apache server only in Opera web browser, neither of the remaining installed browser run it.
Here's the steps I have followed to start the server in my Windows 7 machine.
-Installed the Apache Tomcat service in Windows from apache-tomcat-7.0.2/bin/service.bat
-Started the service with tomcat7w.exe
-As my default port is 8080, I open 'http://localhost:8080/' in various web browsers, and I could see Apache Server Homepage with same address only in Opera Web Browser (11.01), neither of other browsers installed can open it (Chrome 9, Firefox 4 Beta 11 or IE8) and show standard page not found message.
-I also tried other port numbers, but none of them worked.
What can I do to make Apache run in every browser installed in my computer?
I have my computer dual boot with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.10, and in Ubuntu, every web browser installed can run Apache once I start it, but same is not working in Windows.
Update:
I have also tried apache's windows-only installer of version 7.0.8 and changed the port number during installation, but still I can't run it on any other browser expect for Opera...
Any help will be appreciated............
Thanks.
Check your hosts file under C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts to make sure that the entry for
127.0.0.1 localhost
is intact. Also see that if you are behind a proxy server, the settings allow for localhost to be bypassed.
Congo!! finally got it done, instead of localhost, it works with 127.0.0.1 (which is localhost anyway)
So those who are facing similar issues, as suggested by adarshr, go through your hosts file to see if localhost is correctly addressed to 127.0.0.1, or if you don't want to edit that file, you can still get it done by simply using http://127.0.0.1:8080/ instead of http://localhost:8080/. Please be sure about port number you are using, in my case it was 8080, it might vary depending on how you've configured.
