Reaching website through IIS from an other computer - wcf

I think I'm almost done with this problem but there is something off. Perhaps you guys can help me out.
I've created a website which I can reach through C:\inetpub\wwwroot\KLABrowser\publish.htm.
I've created a website through IIS called KLABrowser. The http binding is listed on port 1111, with * as IP adress.
When going to http://xxx.xx.xx.xx:1111/KLABrowser/publish.htm, I get a Cannot find page error. When I go to http://xxx.xx.xx.xx/KLABrowser/publish.htm, I get a blank page but no error. When I hit the first link (the psychical path), I get to see the website.
What am I missing? What should I configure so that I can reach the website through my IP on an other computer in the local network?

This answer provided the solution.
You must specifically choose "Static Content" under Common HTTP Features in the same Add/Remove Windows Features list to show the page.

What are the URLs to add to Time Screen to be able to log in replit.com account on iMac?

I have added these 3 urls to the authorised urls on my iMac "Time Screen" settings to be able to log in on replit.com but the page stays on the log in page...
Any ideas why it is blocked?
Thanks
[https://replit.com][1]
[https://replit.com/~][2]
[https://replit.com/login][3]
Thank you very much, but here are all the urls I have added thanks to your advises and it keeps blocking.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong on iMac "Screen Time"?
For Replit to work properly you need a lot more than just replit.com unblocked.
To make sure Replit works for you and your students on your school network, >you need to ensure the following domains are whitelisted/unblocked:
*.replit.com (primary domain)
*.repl.co (where web applications built on Replit are hosted)
*.repl.it (old domain, not actively used)
*.replitusercontent.com (old domain, not actively used)
*.cdn.replit.com
Clients must be able to access all subdomains of the above domains. The specific hosts that clients communicate with under the above names are subject to change without notice.
According to the Replit docs.
I do recognize that it refers to students because this specific page is for the IT dept so Replit would work in their distract.

Hosting several sites on a server... change default site?

I have an AWS instance running Amazon Linux 2.
I'm currently hosting several sites on it using vhosts.conf
my problem is that if the IP address of the server is entered into the browser then the first site i setup on this server is shown.
I'd like to just show a blank page rather than one specific site.
This seems to have become an issue because when one of my hosted clients put their URL into an email in outlook live it shows a thumbnail and excerpt from the site, but it's showing the wrong site!
Apparently outlook live uses Bing to show this information, and i can only think that it's looking up the IP address and being presented with contents from the (incorrect) default website.
Thanks!

Recent https (SSL) addition, getting site cannot provide secure connection error page

Recently our website went from http to https. I, and others, are randomly getting "The Site Can't Provide a Secure Connection" page. Upon refresh, the page loads just fine. Why are we getting this initial page randomly?
FYI... We have http to https redirects in place.
Impossible to say without more details, but some things I can suggest are:
You have multiple servers and some are configured correctly and some incorrectly.
You are not including the full certificate chain. Sometimes your browser has the missing intermediary cached and sometimes not (see this answer for more info here: https://serverfault.com/questions/826100/ca-certificate-trouble-with-squid-on-centos7/826321#826321)
A bug in browser/software. I had this issue on Chrome when using Apache HTTP/2. Never did figure it out but a Chrome update fixed it.
Run https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ on your site to confirm not a problem with your https set up and, if that doesn't work, or you don't understand the results it gives, then update your question with more details (what Server and Browser you are using and what version, if you have any proxy in place between your Browser and the site and, ideally the website name) if you want people to help you.
Also be aware this is a programming site and some people don't like these questions here and will suggest other Stack Exchange sites but honestly don't know where this question is best placed: serverfault.com maybe, but is for professional SysAdmins only, Unix and Linux seems a little generic (not even sure if you are using a Linux webserver!), Webmasters is more for content and SEO questions, Information and Security is more for theoretical SSL/TLS questions...

Classic ASP and SSL in a folder

We have a folder in a classic asp site that has ssl set up for that folder. It works but when you load the first page within the folder and then follow a hyperlink to another page in the folder you get kicked back to the page outside the folder which led into the https stuff.
Repeat the process (follow link on non https page > go to https folder > follow link to other page in https folder) and it all works fine, for a random number of hops between pages in the https folder, then bang, kicked out again.
I have noticed that the session ID changes all the time when hopping between pages in the https folder. Someone said it was due to IE compatabilty mode swapping but I have forced the thing with a header and using IE dev tools (miss you Firebug) I see the mode stays constant. any ideas please?
We had a similar issue with another project last year. #padas is correct. Sessions on http and https are different and the server will have a problem with it. The option we went for was to https the whole site. It makes sense anyway and helps the user gain confidence in what they are browsing.
It sounds like your traversing between http and https and that will change the session id. If your pages are using session id's to track people you will have issues. You are better off dropping a cookie or forcing https.

Site down because of moving to another host bad for seo?

I have bought a ipad website and it's moved to my server.
Now i have tried to make an addon domain, but it does not work on my first hosting account.
On my second hosting account it works, but on that server there is another ipad website so i don't think this is smart to do because of the same ip adresses.
So adding an addon domain does not work and the site is down now!
I have added a service ticket, but i think this will cost at least 8 hours before i get an answer.
Can anyone tell me how bad this is for my serp position in google.
The website has always been on the first page.
Will this 404 error do bad to my site?cOr is it better to place the site on the same server as the other ipad website?
EDIT:
It is not ideal to serve a 404/timeouts, however your rankings should recover. You mentioned that the sites are different. Moving the site to a different server/IP shouldn't matter too much as long as you can minimize the down time of the said process performed (and should probably be preferred over downtime, if possible). I want to ensure this is communicated, but do NOT show site #2 as site #1 in the short term as you will experience duplicate content issues.
If you don't already have it, you might open up a Google Webmaster Tools account. It will provide you with some diagnostics about your outage (e.g. how many attempts Google tried, the returned response codes, etc..) and if something major happens, which is unlikely, you can request re-inclusion.
I believe it is very bad if the 404 is a result of an internal link.
I cannot tell you anything about which server you should host it on though, as i have no idea if that scenario is bad. Could you possibly host it on the one server, then when the next is up, host it from there?
