Error on Launch.

Question

User1421620300 posted

What is happening to my website after launching in Google Chrome. I have uninstalled and reinstalled chrome because my V.S. project was not showing in browser. My theory was that maybe their was some interaction from outside of visuals studio causing this.  I have not corrected issue yet, but the application is running a SSMS database and it uses Angular as a single page application. It initially has not compile time errors? Can someone explain to me what the following error entails! Markus

HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden

The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.

<fieldset>

Most likely causes:

• A default document is not configured for the requested URL, and directory browsing is not enabled on the server.

</fieldset>

<fieldset>

Things you can try:

• If you do not want to enable directory browsing, ensure that a default document is configured and that the file exists.
• Enable directory browsing.
  1. Go to the IIS Express install directory.
  2. Run appcmd set config /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true to enable directory browsing at the server level.
  3. Run appcmd set config ["SITE_NAME"] /section:system.webServer/directoryBrowse /enabled:true to enable directory browsing at the site level.
• Verify that the configuration/system.webServer/directoryBrowse@enabled attribute is set to true in the site or application configuration file.

The 403.14 is a very common error and it means the URL does not have a default file like index.htm.   Most likely an issue with your angular application which we cannot see.

Hi Markus33,

  

There is a official solution for your case with the same symptoms.

This problem occurs because the Web site does not have the Directory Browsing feature enabled, and the default document is not configured.

I copied the steps for solving the problem as below and you could refer to the link at the end of the steps to find out more details.

  

Method 1: Enable the Directory Browsing feature in IIS (Recommended)

To resolve this problem, follow these steps:

1. Start IIS Manager. To do this, click Start, click Run, type inetmgr.exe, and then click OK.
2. In IIS Manager, expand server name, expand Web sites, and then click the website that you want to modify.
3. In the Features view, double-click Directory Browsing.
4. In the Actions pane, click Enable.

Method 2: Add a default document

To resolve this problem, follow these steps:

1. Start IIS Manager. To do this, click Start, click Run, type inetmgr.exe, and then click OK.
2. In IIS Manager, expand server name, expand Web sites, and then click the website that you want to modify.
3. In the Features view, double-click Default Document.
4. In the Actions pane, click Enable.
5. In the File Name box, type the name of the default document, and then click OK.

Method 3: Enable the Directory Browsing feature in IIS Express

Note This method is for the web developers who experience the issue when they use IIS Express.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Open a command prompt, and then go to the IIS Express folder on your computer. For example, go to the following folder in a command prompt:
   

   C:\Program Files\IIS Express 

2. Type the following command, and then press Enter:
   appcmd set config /section:directoryBrowse /enabled:true

The original link:

"HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden" error when you open an IIS 7.0 Webpage

 

Hope this can help you.

Best regards,

Sean

Sean how are you! I have followed your instruction to run website in IIS. I completed steps 1. and 3. but the website still does not run in browser. Maybe further clarification is needed! I have included the browser info that is returned when after browsing of website inside of IIS! Markus.

You copied an MVC/Angular project to the application root.   That's not the correct way to publish an MVC/Angular application.  Try publishing using Visual Studio.

Hello, Gebhard, is there any way that you can check out my repo on git hub. I surely want to know why this site does not launch properly! I have tried all but one of the above recommendations! Markus.
