Cannot access project portal from remote computer
I'm running TFS in single server mode.
When I'm working local on the server everything works great. I can visit the portal and I can create new projects.
But - when I try to visit a project site from a remote computer, I get this error in the browser:
-Start of message --
The page cannot be displayed
You have attempted to execute a CGI, ISAPI, or other executable program from a directory that does not allow programs to be executed.
Please try the following:
- Contact the Web site administrator if you believe this directory should allow execute access.
HTTP Error 403.1 - Forbidden: Execute access is denied.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
End of message -
I also cannot create new projects from a remote computer.
There are no errors in the server log. I tried to add the tfsservice account to local admin, but that didn't help either...
Source control works fine, no problemo.
TIA
The TFS server is a memberserver in a domain. I've tried with different users; tfssetup;administrator and other users that are member in the TFAdmin roles.
I'm using Internet Explorer 6 on a XP SP2 machine (wich is a domain member), I've also tried with FireFox.
I've also tried to enable CGI,ISAP and old ASP on the server with no success.
I followed the setup instructions very varefully when I did the installation.
I'm using SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition September CTP, WSS with SP2.
I did NOT do any configuration of WSS at installation.
The WSS site is using NTLM.
Everything works great when I run IE at the console (or via RDP) on the server, but not from a remote machine. I tried both NetBios name, FQDN and IP address, but everything fails.
I can however access source control from remote machines, I can use the TFS explorer to add work items, I can use Excel to add work items.
The only thing that doesn't work is accessing the WSS project portal. And I suppose for that reason I cannot CREATE projects remote - it fails when it comes to create the project site.
